Journal ArticleDOI

Static and dynamic postural loadings during computer work in females: Sitting on an office chair versus sitting on an exercise ball

TL;DR: It is concluded that the advantages with respect to physical loading of sitting on an exercise ball may not outweigh the disadvantages.
Journal ArticleDOI

Is There a Relationship Between Lumbar Proprioception and Low Back Pain? A Systematic Review With Meta-Analysis.

TL;DR: Patients with LBP have impaired lumbar proprioception compared with controls when measured actively in sitting positions (particularly those in the O'Sullivan flexion impairment subgroup) or via threshold to detection of passive motion (TTDPM).
Journal ArticleDOI

In vitro biomechanical characteristics of the spine: a comparison between human and porcine spinal segments.

TL;DR: This study showed that the porcine spine can be a good biomechanical model for the human spine in specific situations and was used to predict the behavior of a human spine.
Journal ArticleDOI

Age-related intrinsic limitations in preventing a trip and regaining balance after a trip

TL;DR: Results suggest that coordination and strength training can contribute to fall prevention among the elderly because joints moments in the stance leg are generated more slowly and reach lower peak values.
Journal ArticleDOI

Stepping strategies used by post-stroke individuals to maintain margins of stability during walking

TL;DR: Whether and how post-stroke individuals adapt their steady-state gait pattern to maintain or increase their margins of stability during walking is examined, and how these strategies differ from strategies employed by able-bodied people is examined.
