Journal ArticleDOI
Learning to balance on one leg: motor strategy and sensory weighting.
TL;DR: The initial decrease in sway with practice was associated with upweighting of visual information, while later changes were associated with suppression of oscillations that the authors suggest are due to too high proprioceptive feedback gains.
Journal ArticleDOI
Center of pressure trajectories, trunk kinematics and trunk muscle activation during unstable sitting in low back pain patients.
TL;DR: Activation of the intersegmental longissimus relative to the iliocostalis muscle was lower in low-back pain patients compared to healthy individuals, which may be causal for larger thoraco-lumbar movements, and may also reflect the need for larger corrective movements to compensate balance impairments.
Journal ArticleDOI
Fall-related gait characteristics on the treadmill and in daily life
Sietse M. Rispens,Jaap H. van Dieën,Kimberley S. van Schooten,L. Eduardo Cofré Lizama,L. Eduardo Cofré Lizama,Andreas Daffertshofer,Peter J. Beek,Mirjam Pijnappels +7 more
TL;DR: Gait characteristics revealed less stable, less symmetric, and more variable gait during daily life than on a treadmill, yet about half of the characteristics were significantly correlated between conditions.
Journal ArticleDOI
The effect of control strategies for an active back-support exoskeleton on spine loading and kinematics during lifting
Axel S. Koopman,Stefano Toxiri,Valerie Power,Idsart Kingma,Jaap H. van Dieën,Jesús Ortiz,Michiel P. de Looze +6 more
TL;DR: While subtle differences in back load patterns were seen between the three control modes, no differences in peak compression forces were found and this may be related to limitations in the torque generating capacity of the EXO.
Journal ArticleDOI
Do Extreme Values of Daily-Life Gait Characteristics Provide More Information About Fall Risk Than Median Values?
Sietse M. Rispens,Kimberley S. van Schooten,Mirjam Pijnappels,Andreas Daffertshofer,Peter J. Beek,Jaap H. van Dieën +5 more
TL;DR: Gait characteristics during optimal performance gait provide more information about the risk of falling than high-risk situations, however, their added value over medians in prediction is limited.
