Gross Motor Skills in Children With Idiopathic Clubfoot and the Association Between Gross Motor Skills, Foot Involvement, Gait, and Foot Motion.
Elin Lööf,Elin Lööf,Hanneke Andriesse,Marie André,Stephanie Böhm,Maura D. Iversen,Eva W. Broström,Eva W. Broström +7 more
TL;DR: The weak association with gait, foot motion, and initial clubfoot severity indicates that gross motor measurements represent a different outcome entity in clubfoot treatment, and is recommended for children with IC.
Journal ArticleDOI
Celecoxib improves the efficiency of the locomotor mechanism in patients with knee osteoarthritis. A randomised, placebo, double-blind and cross-over trial
TL;DR: Celecoxib is effective in improving locomotor function and pain in patients with knee OA and among the secondary outcome measures assessed, celecoxib treatment improved walking cadence and reduced the knee pain significantly.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effects of knee bracing on tibial rotation during high loading activities in anterior cruciate ligament-reconstructed knees.
Dimitrios Giotis,Franceska Zampeli,Evangelos Pappas,Evangelos Pappas,Evangelos Pappas,G. Mitsionis,Pericles Papadopoulos,Anastasios D. Georgoulis +7 more
TL;DR: Bracing limited the excessive tibial rotation in ACL-reconstructed knees during pivoting that occurs under high-demand activities, however, full restoration to normative values was not achieved and braces have the potential to decrease rotational knee instability that still remains after ACL reconstruction.
Journal ArticleDOI
Kinematic analysis of hip and knee rotation and other contributors to ballet turnout
TL;DR: Physical examination and a biomechanical method for obtaining functional kinematic data using hip and knee joint centres to identify the relative turnout contributions from hip rotation, femoral anteversion, knee rotation, tibial torsion, and other sources were utilised.
Journal ArticleDOI
The effect of simulated leg length discrepancy on lower limb biomechanics during gait.
TL;DR: Simulation of leg length discrepancy, as low as 5 mm, causes biomechanical changes in the lower limbs during gait revealed in both kinematics and dynamic leg length, suggesting that LLD, as small as 5-10 mm, should not be ignored.

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.
