Trunk and glenohumeral joint adaptations to manual wheelchair propulsion over a cross-slope : an exploratory study
(Elsevier, 2023-12-31)
Background: Cross-slopes are often encountered by manual wheelchair users propelling
within an urban setting. While propulsion over cross-slopes is more difficult than on level
surfaces, little is known about how the ...
The influence of proximal motor strategies on pianists' upper-limb movement variability
(Elsevier, 2023-06-07)
Repetitive movements are considered a risk factor for developing practice-related musculoskeletal disorders. Intra-participant kinematic variability might help musicians reduce the risk of injury during repetitive tasks. ...
Adipose tissue (P)RR regulates insulin sensitivity, fat mass and body weight
(Elsevier, 2016-08-23)
Objective
We previously demonstrated that the handle-region peptide, a prorenin/renin receptor [(P)RR] blocker, reduces body weight and fat mass and may improve insulin sensitivity in high-fat fed mice. We hypothesized ...
Muscle co-contraction and co-activation in cerebral palsy during gait : a scoping review
(Elsevier, 2023-07-09)
Background
Cerebral palsy (CP) results from an injury to a developing brain. Muscle activation patterns during walking are disrupted in individuals with CP. Indeed, excessive muscle co-contraction or co-activation (MCo/MCa) ...
Gait adaptations of individuals with cerebral palsy on irregular surfaces : a scoping review
(Elsevier, 2022-05-10)
Background
Individuals with cerebral palsy (CP) have a reduced ability to perform motor tasks such as walking. During daily walking, they are confronted with environmental constraints such as irregular surfaces (e.g., ...
A longitudinal pilot study on cognition and cerebral hemodynamics in a mouse model of preeclampsia superimposed on hypertension : looking at mothers and their offspring
(Frontiers Media, 2021-02-01)
Preeclampsia is a common hypertensive disorder in pregnant women and whose
causes and consequences have focused primarily on cardiovascular outcomes on the
mother and offspring, often without taking into consideration ...
Moment arms of the deltoid, infraspinatus and teres minor muscles for movements with high range of motion : a cadaveric study
(Elsevier, 2022-05-25)
Background
Moment arms are an indicator of the role of the muscles in joint actuation. An excursion method is often used to calculate them, even though it provides 1D results. As shoulder movement occurs in three dimensions ...
Phospho-regulation, nucleotide binding and ion access control in potassium-chloride cotransporters
(2021-05-25)
Potassium-coupled chloride transporters (KCCs) play crucial roles
in regulating cell volume and intracellular chloride concentration.
They are characteristically inhibited under isotonic conditions via
phospho-regulatory ...
Finite element model of the shoulder with active rotator cuff muscles : application to wheelchair propulsion
(Springer, 2024-02-20)
Purpose: The rotator cuff is prone to injury, remarkably so for manual wheelchair users.
To understand its pathomechanisms, finite element models incorporating threedimensional activated muscles are needed to predict soft ...
Cavus foot in soccer players : increased prevalence in experienced players and risk factor for injury
(American Podiatric Medical Association, 2023-11)
Background: Foot type, especially cavus foot, is associated with foot and ankle soccer injuries, such as ankle sprains, ankle instability, and foot and ankle lateral injuries. The aim of
this study was to identify risk ...
