Question

question 3 (mandatory) (2 points)
which of the following is not a sign/symptom of scheuermanns disease?
○ a) anterior wedging of vertebral bodies
○ b) accentuated thoracic curvature
○ c) end - plate irregularities
○ d) at least 4 consecutive vertebral bodies
question 4 (mandatory) (2 points)
a \pls\ listing can be converted to all of the following, except?
○ a) left rotation/left lateral flexion restriction
○ b) right rota

Explanation:

Question 3

Scheuermann's disease is a skeletal disorder affecting the spine. Anterior wedging of vertebral bodies, end - plate irregularities, and at least 3 (not 4) consecutive vertebral bodies with wedging are typical signs. Accentuated thoracic curvature (kyphosis) is also a symptom. Option d says "at least 4 consecutive vertebral bodies" which is incorrect as the typical number is at least 3.

In the context of vertebral listing (e.g., PLS - Posterior Left Superior), the PLS listing is typically associated with right - sided rotational and lateral flexion patterns. "Left rotation/left lateral flexion restriction" is not a conversion of PLS. (Note: Option b is incomplete, but based on the given option a, and standard PLS conversion knowledge, option a is the non - convertible one here.)

Answer:

d) At least 4 consecutive vertebral bodies

Question 4

(Note: The option "b) Right rota" is incomplete. Assuming it's a typo and based on PLS (Posterior Left Superior) listing in chiropractic/orthopedic context. PLS listing conversion: PLS relates to right rotation/right lateral flexion restriction or left rotation/left lateral flexion restriction? Wait, PLS (Posterior - Left - Superior) in the context of vertebral listing (like in chiropractic for subluxation). The PLS listing typically converts to right rotation/right lateral flexion restriction or other related, but if we assume the options: If "a) Left rotation/left lateral flexion restriction" is not a conversion of PLS (since PLS is posterior - left - superior, which is more related to right - side restrictions). But due to incomplete option b, we can only analyze based on given info. However, since the problem is about PLS conversion, and if we take the standard: PLS (Posterior Left Superior) vertebral subluxation listing. The PLS listing is associated with right rotation and right lateral flexion restriction (or other combinations). So if option a is "Left rotation/left lateral flexion restriction", that would be the one that PLS cannot be converted to. But due to incomplete option b, we'll proceed with the given.
