Biarticular muscles have traditionally been considered to exhibit homogeneous
neuromuscular activation. The regional activation of biarticular muscles, as revealed from …

The aim of this systematic review and meta-analysis was to evaluate the effectiveness of
robot-assisted gait training (RAGT) on motor impairments in people with Parkinson's disease …

Background As the most common form of movement, walking happens not only on flat but
also on uneven surfaces, where constant loss and regaining of balance occur. The main …

Ankle and foot injuries are common among athletes and physically active individuals. The
most common residual disability, ankle sprain, is characterized by instability along with …

Upright standing involves small displacements of the center of mass about the base of
support. These displacements are often quantified by measuring various kinematic features …

Balance training aims to improve balance and transfer acquired skills to real-life tasks. How
older adults adapt gait to different conditions, and whether these adaptations are altered by …

The participant was performing the stop-jump task wearing his own running shoes. Sixty-four
retroreflective markers were placed on selected anatomical landmarks of the lower leg, the …

Objective. To realize accurate muscle force estimation, a novel framework is proposed in this
paper which can extract the input of the prediction model from the appropriate activation …

Methods: healthy adults (6 male, 8 female; age, 24.2±0.8 years, height 170.1±7.8 cm; mass
69.8±10.9 kg; Body Mass Index 24.1±3.0 kg· m2) participated in the study. All participants …

The distribution of activation among muscles from the same anatomical group can be
affected by the mechanical constraints of the task, such as limb orientation. For example, the …
