Journal ArticleDOI
Validation of a Quantitative Single-Subject Based Evaluation for Rehabilitation-Induced Improvement Assessment
Marta Gandolla,Franco Molteni,Nick S. Ward,Eleonora Guanziroli,Giancarlo Ferrigno,Alessandra Pedrocchi +5 more
TL;DR: An automatic comprehensive method of combining multiple measures in order to assess a functional improvement on a single-subject yes/no base is proposed and validated against clinical evaluation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effects of forefoot bending elasticity of running shoes on gait and running performance
TL;DR: The contact time and medial gastrocnemius muscle activation in the push-off phase were significantly lower for the elastic shoes compared with the flexible shoes in walking and jogging, and the elasticity used in this study was not strong enough to exert a similar effect for running.
Journal ArticleDOI
Progressive modular rebalancing system and visual cueing for gait rehabilitation in Parkinson’s disease: A pilot, randomized, controlled trial with crossover
Mariano Serrao,Francesco Pierelli,Elisabetta Sinibaldi,Giorgia Chini,Stefano Filippo Castiglia,Marina Priori,Dario Gimma,Giovanni Sellitto,Alberto Ranavolo,Carmela Conte,Michelangelo Bartolo,Giuseppe Monari +11 more
TL;DR: The PMR plus VC program could be used to improve gait function and severity motor of motor deficit in individuals with PD and most participants showed improvements in gait variables and UPDRS-III scores with both treatments.
Journal ArticleDOI
Body-Worn IMU Human Skeletal Pose Estimation Using a Factor Graph-Based Optimization Framework.
Timothy McGrath,Leia Stirling +1 more
TL;DR: A magnetometer-free estimation method is proposed, which provides desirable observability qualities under joint kinematics that sufficiently excite the lower body degrees of freedom and can be expanded for modeling additional joints and constraints.
Journal ArticleDOI
Walking Cadence Affects the Recruitment of the Medial-Lateral Balance Mechanisms.
Tyler Fettrow,Hendrik Reimann,David Grenet,Jeremy R. Crenshaw,Jill S. Higginson,John J. Jeka +5 more
TL;DR: The results suggest that neural control of balance is altered when gait characteristics, such as cadence change, suggesting a flexible balance response that is sensitive to the constraints of the gait cycle.

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.
Journal Article
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.
