Journal ArticleDOI
Comparison of 2 Orthotic Approaches in Children With Cerebral Palsy.
Tishya A. L. Wren,James W. Dryden,Nicole M. Mueske,Sandra W. Dennis,Bitte S. Healy,Susan A. Rethlefsen +5 more
TL;DR: ADR-AFOs produce better knee extension and push-off power; DAFOs produced more normal ankle motion, greater parent satisfaction, and walking activity, both braces provide improvements over barefoot.

Single leg vertical jump performance identifies knee function deficits at return to sport after ACL reconstruction in male athletes
Argyro Kotsifaki,Sam Van Rossom,Rod Whiteley,Vasileios Korakakis,Roald Bahr,Vasileios Sideris,Ilse Jonkers +6 more
TL;DR: During vertical jumps, male athletes after ACLR at RTS still exhibit knee biomechanical deficits, despite symmetry in horizontal functional performance and strength tests, which can better identify interlimb asymmetries than the more commonly used hop distance.

Comparison of percutaneous and surface functional electrical stimulation during gait in a child with hemiplegic cerebral palsy.
Samuel R. Pierce,Margo Orlin,Richard T. Lauer,Therese E. Johnston,Brian T. Smith,James J. McCarthy +5 more
TL;DR: It is suggested that S-FES and P-F ES may have different immediate effects on gait due to issues such as muscle contraction strength, sensory feedback, and control systems for stimulation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Distal Tibial Rotation Osteotomies Normalize Frontal Plane Knee Moments
TL;DR: Excessive tibial torsion adversely affected frontal knee moments and was associated with other kinematic and kinetic abnormalities, and corrected all variables studied here and restored many to the values found in the control group.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effects of chronic ankle instability on energy dissipation in the lower extremity.
TL;DR: Altered energy dissipation patterns at the knee and ankle during a stop-jump task in the CAI group are found and may provide insight into kinetic alterations that may be associated with CAI.

Journal ArticleDOI
Measurement of lower extremity kinematics during level walking
TL;DR: The relatively small number of body surface markers used in the VICON system render it easy to implement for use in routine clinical gait evaluations and should be a useful reference for describing and comparing pathologic gait patterns.

Principles of dynamics
TL;DR: In this article, the Lagrange Equations are used to model the dynamics of a rigid body and a system of parts of a particle system with respect to the velocity of a single particle.
Journal ArticleDOI
Justification of triaxial goniometer for the measurement of joint rotation.
TL;DR: Considering all factors in joint functional evaluation, the modified triaxial goniometer is a useful and effective method to provide simple real time three-dimensional angular motion measurements.
Journal ArticleDOI
The anthropometry of the manual work space for the seated subject
TL;DR: This paper is an exploration of the space-geometry of hand motions as they relate to young men in the seated posture primarily in functional anthropometry, but the information derived should have practical use in improving the design of work areas.

Walking patterns of men with parkinsonism.
TL;DR: Interrupted-light photography was used to record the simultaneous displacement patterns of multiple body segments of 44 patients with parkinsonism during free-speed and fast walking to quantitatively characterize their gait peculiarities.
