Glenohumeral joint and muscles functions during a lifting task
(Elsevier, 2021-07-19)
The mobility of the healthy shoulder depends on complex interactions between the muscles spanning its glenohumeral joint. These interactions ensure the stability of this joint. While previous studies emphasized the complexity ...
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 ...
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 ...
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 ...
