Journal ArticleDOI
A Meta-Analysis of Six Prospective Studies of Falling in Parkinson's Disease
Ruth M. Pickering,Yvette A. M. Grimbergen,Una Rigney,Ann Ashburn,Gordon Mazibrada,Brian Wood,Peggy Gray,Graham K. Kerr,Bastiaan R. Bloem,Bastiaan R. Bloem +9 more
TL;DR: The strongest predictor of falling was prior falls in the preceding year, but even subjects without any prior falls had a considerable risk of sustaining future falls, and disease severity was not a good predictor of falls.
Journal ArticleDOI
Predictors of future falls in Parkinson disease
Graham K. Kerr,Charles J. Worringham,Michael H. Cole,Philippe F. Lacherez,Joanne M. Wood,Peter A. Silburn +5 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a combination of both disease-specific and balance-and mobility-related measures can accurately predict falls in individuals with Parkinson disease (PD) in optimally medicated early-stage patients.
Journal ArticleDOI
Autologous olfactory ensheathing cell transplantation in human paraplegia: a 3-year clinical trial.
Alan Mackay-Sim,Francois Feron,J. Cochrane,L. Bassingthwaighte,C. Bayliss,W. Davies,Patricia Fronek,C. Gray,Graham K. Kerr,P. Licina,Adrian M. Nowitzke,Chris T. Perry,Peter A. Silburn,S. Urquhart,Timothy Geraghty +14 more
TL;DR: It is concluded that transplantation of autologous olfactory ensheathing cells into the injured spinal cord is feasible and is safe up to 3 years of post-implantation, however, this conclusion should be considered preliminary because of the small number of trial patients.
Journal ArticleDOI
A Critical Review of Consumer Wearables, Mobile Applications, and Equipment for Providing Biofeedback, Monitoring Stress, and Sleep in Physically Active Populations.
TL;DR: This review has summarized the features and evaluated the characteristics of a cross-section of technologies for health and sports performance according to what the technology is claimed to do, whether it has been validated and is reliable, and if it is suitable for general consumer use.
Journal ArticleDOI
A biomechanical analysis of the sticking region in the bench press.
TL;DR: The sticking region did not appear to be caused by an increase in the moment arm of the weight about the shoulder or elbow joints or by a minimization of muscular activity during this region, and a possible mechanism which envisages the sticking region as a force-reduced transition phase between a strain energy-assisted acceleration phase and a mechanically advantageous maximum strength region is postulated.
