Journal ArticleDOI
Age effects on mediolateral balance control
L. Eduardo Cofré Lizama,Mirjam Pijnappels,Gert H. Faber,Peter N. Reeves,Sabine Verschueren,Jaap H. van Dieën +5 more
TL;DR: ML-CoM tracking tasks form a reliable tool to assess ML balance in young and older adults and are more sensitive to age-related impairment than posturography and clinical tests.
Journal ArticleDOI
Falls Associated with Muscle Strength in Patients with Knee Osteoarthritis and Self-reported Knee Instability.
Arjan de Zwart,Martin van der Esch,Mirjam Pijnappels,Marco J.M. Hoozemans,Marike van der Leeden,Leo D. Roorda,Joost Dekker,Willem F. Lems,Jaap H. van Dieën +8 more
TL;DR: High knee extension and flexion muscle strength decreased the risk of falls in patients with knee OA and self-reported knee instability, according to a univariate and multivariate logistic regression analysis.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of job rotation on work demands, workload, and recovery of refuse truck drivers and collectors.
P. Paul F. M. Kuijer,Wiebe H K de Vries,Allard J. van der Beek,Allard J. van der Beek,Jaap H. van Dieën,Bart Visser,Monique H. W. Frings-Dresen +6 more
TL;DR: Recommendation is that before job rotation is introduced, its efficacy be determined in terms of well-chosen workload measures because a reduction in work demands does not directly imply a Reduction in workload, therefore, job rotation might be less effective than expected.
Journal ArticleDOI
Low-back loading in lifting two loads beside the body compared to lifting one load in front of the body
TL;DR: Load-splitting resulted in most cases in a reduction (8-32%) of peak L5/S1 compression forces and the magnitude of the reduction was roughly comparable to halving the load mass and depended on lifting technique and load width.
Journal ArticleDOI
Bottom-up estimation of joint moments during manual lifting using orientation sensors instead of position sensors
TL;DR: Joint moments during lifting can be estimated with good accuracy at the knee joint and with reasonable Accuracy at the hip and L5/S1 joints using segment orientation and GRF data only.
