Brief summary
The aims of this study is to verify that the vertebral manipulation of dorsal level D9 influences the pancreas biochemical and endocrinology blood values.
Detailed description
A longitudinal experimental study was conducted in which the osteopathic thrust maneuver was applied. In this research, 87 healthy subjects participated, of which 56.3% (n = 49) are men and 43.7% (n = 38) are women aged 19-29 who study at the Catholic University of Murcia.The blood analytical values of insulin and glycemia have been measured in 4 different times: at baseline, after 2,5 and 10 minutes of the technique application with the purpose to verify any possible change.

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Basal insulin laboratory value change | 10 minutes | The normal values of basal insulin measured with the imunoanalysis method are ˂ at 25.0 mU / l. If these values are exceeded, the effect of the manipulation in the study is verified |
| Basal glycemia laboratory value change | 10 minutes | The normal values of basal glycemia measured with the enzymatic method vary between 60 - 105 mg / dl. The change of these values according to the reference laboratory has been the basis of the study. |
