Is interlimb coordination during walking preserved in children with cerebral palsy
Pieter Meyns,Leen Van Gestel,Sjoerd M. Bruijn,Kaat Desloovere,Stephan P. Swinnen,Jacques Duysens +5 more
TL;DR: Coordination and limb-leading deficits were mostly linked to the affected limb, which underlines the importance of active arm movements in HE and increasing walking speed may be used to improve interlimb coordination in DI.

Biomechanical effectiveness of a distraction-rotation knee brace in medial knee osteoarthritis: preliminary results.
Davy Laroche,Claire Morisset,Clémentine Fortunet,Vincent Gremeaux,Jean-Francis Maillefert,Jean-Francis Maillefert,Paul Ornetti,Paul Ornetti +7 more
TL;DR: This new knee brace with distraction-rotation effects significantly alters knee adduction moments and foot progression angles during gait, which might lead to significant functional gait improvements and have carry-over effects on pain at the short term in osteoarthritis patients.
Journal ArticleDOI
Novice runners show greater changes in kinematics with fatigue compared with competitive runners.
TL;DR: Novelist runners showed larger kinematic adjustments when exhausted than competitive long-distance runners, which may affect their running performance and should be taken into account when assessing a runner’s injury risk.
Journal ArticleDOI
Assessment of waveform similarity in clinical gait data: the linear fit method.
Marco Iosa,Andrea Cereatti,Andrea Merlo,Isabella Campanini,Stefania Paolucci,Aurelio Cappozzo +5 more
TL;DR: A simple method based on a linear fit applied to the two data sets under comparison plotted one against the other after time normalization resulted in a simple method suitable for analysing the waveform similarity in clinical gait analysis.

Does botulinum toxin A improve the walking pattern in children with idiopathic toe-walking?
Pähr Engström,Pähr Engström,Elena M. Gutierrez-Farewik,Elena M. Gutierrez-Farewik,Åsa Bartonek,Kristina Tedroff,Christina Orefelt,Yvonne Haglund-Åkerlind +7 more
TL;DR: A single injection of BTX in combination with an exercise program can improve the walking pattern in children with ITW seen at gait analysis, but the obvious goal of ceasing toe-walking is only occasionally reached.

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.
