Background Research suggests that individuals with musculoskeletal injury may have
difficulty negotiating physical tasks when they are combined with cognitive loads. Objective …

Objective To identify suggestions for future research on spinal movement variability (SMV) in
individuals with low back pain (LBP) by investigating (1) the methodologies and statistical …

Some of the earliest biomechanics research focused on running and the ground reaction
forces generated with each step. Research in running gait accelerated in the 1970's as the …

Background Segment coordination variability (CV) is a movement pattern associated with
running-related injuries. It can also be adversely affected by a prolonged run. However …

Even though running enjoys growing popularity, the effects of fatigue on the running
kinematics of novices have rarely been studied. This is surprising, given the risk of running …

Background Growing evidence suggests that identifying movement variability alterations in
pathological vs. healthy gait may further understanding of injury mechanisms related to gait …

Sidesteps can impose high demands on the knee joint and lead to non-contact anterior
cruciate ligament (ACL) injuries. Understanding how different constraints shape an athlete's …

Background Differences in variability of trunk motor behavior between people with and
without low back pain (LBP) have been reported in the literature. However, the direction and …

This study aimed to systematically review research investigating the association between
hip muscle strength and dynamic knee valgus (DKV). Four databases (MEDLINE, PubMed …

OCCUPATIONAL APPLICATIONS Occupational exoskeletons receive rising interest in
industry as these devices diminish the biomechanical load during manual materials …
