Prediction of responsiveness of gait variables to rehabilitation training in Parkinson's disease

TL;DR: Impaired gait parameters are susceptible to improvement by rehabilitation, and younger men with Parkinson's disease who are less severely affected and at early disease stage are more susceptible to improvements in gait function after a 10-weeks rehabilitation program.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effects of severity of osteoarthritis on the temporospatial gait parameters in patients with knee osteoarthritis.

TL;DR: Changes in temporospatial parameters of patients with Phase 3 knee OA may be correlated with loss of gait stabilization and increase in risk of falling.
Journal Article

Anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction with a quadrupled hamstrings tendon autograft does not restore tibial rotation to normative levels during landing from a jump and subsequent pivoting.

TL;DR: It was concluded that ACL reconstruction with an ST/G graft does not restore tibial rotation to normal levels during this high demanding activity, and new surgical techniques are needed to better replicate the actual anatomy and function of the natural ACL.
Journal ArticleDOI

Development of an active ankle foot orthosis to prevent foot drop and toe drag in hemiplegic patients: A preliminary study

TL;DR: The results demonstrate that the newly-developed AAFO not only prevents foot drop by inducing plantarflexion during loading response, but also prevents toe drag by facilitating plantar Flexion during pre-swing and dorsiflexion during swing phase, leading to improvement in most temporal-spatial parameters.
Journal ArticleDOI

Quasi-stiffness of the knee joint in flexion and extension during the golf swing.

TL;DR: The flexion/extension angle and moment as the primary knee movement was quantified, and quasi-stiffness represented by moment–angle coupling in the knee joint was evaluated, and critical information for preventing knee injuries during a golf swing and developing rehabilitation strategies following surgery is provided.

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.

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.
