Journal ArticleDOI
Quadriceps muscle strength and dynamic stability in elderly persons
TL;DR: The data indicate that clinicians should not suggest that patients use compensatory momentum inducing locomotor strategies unless the patient has sufficient strength to control these induced forces.
Journal ArticleDOI
Knee adduction moment and development of chronic knee pain in elders
Shreyasee Amin,Niyom Luepongsak,Chris A. McGibbon,Michael P. LaValley,David E. Krebs,David T. Felson +5 more
TL;DR: It is found that greater adduction moment at the knee during activities contributes to the development of future chronic knee pain and biomechanical factors may play an important role in the pathogenesis of knee pain.
Journal ArticleDOI
Biomechanical relationship between center of gravity and center of pressure during standing
TL;DR: The relationship between the position of a body's center of gravity (CG) as determined by a whole body kinematic model and that given by 3 CG position estimation techniques using the ground reaction force center of pressure (CP) has been investigated in this article.
Journal ArticleDOI
Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled Trial of Rehabilitation for Bilateral Vestibular Hypofunction: Preliminary Report:
TL;DR: It is concluded that in this small sample, VR effectively improved functional, dynamic stability during locomotion, but even strengthening exercises result in self-reported symptomatic improvement.
Journal ArticleDOI
Precision contact of the fingertip reduces postural sway of individuals with bilateral vestibular loss.
TL;DR: Findings show that during quiet stance light touch of the index finger with a stationary surface can be as effective or even more so than vestibular function for minimizing postural sway.
