Quantitative assessment of the effects of 6 months of adapted physical activity on gait in people with multiple sclerosis: a randomized controlled trial.
Massimiliano Pau,Federica Corona,Giancarlo Coghe,Elisabetta Marongiu,Andrea Loi,Antonio Crisafulli,Alberto Concu,Manuela Galli,Maria Giovanna Marrosu,Eleonora Cocco +9 more
TL;DR: The quantitative analysis of gait supplied mixed evidence about the actual impact of 6 months of APA on pwMS, and suggests that the full transferability of the administered training on the ambulation function may require more specific exercises.
Journal ArticleDOI
Influence of different types of sockets on the range of motion of the hip joint by the transfemoral amputee
TL;DR: The ischial-ramal containment socket seems to be the most interesting type of socket in terms of the criterion studied, and it still remains to identify the possible functional improvements that this design would provoke during gait and during daily activities.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effects of toning shoes on lower extremity gait biomechanics.
Brian Horsak,Arnold Baca +1 more
TL;DR: Results of this study did not show any increased instability during standing and only a slight increase of vastii activity during stance, indicating that the marketing claims that "toning shoes" could serve as a sort of training devices for lower limb muscles during walking, cannot be supported.
Journal ArticleDOI
Reconstruction of the lower limb bones from digitised anatomical landmarks using statistical shape modelling
TL;DR: Improved scaling of bone shapes from digitised external landmarks for gait analysis and quantification of soft tissue artefact in digitisation at landmark locations are improved.
Journal ArticleDOI
Upper body balance control strategy during continuous 3D postural perturbation in young adults
TL;DR: During continuous multiaxial perturbations, visual information induced a continuous reconfiguration of multi-body-segments orientation to follow the perturbation; in H condition, a compensation for the ongoing perturgation.

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.
