Core stability in women with and without chronic pelvic pain

open access: yesPM&R, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Physical activity (PA) and core stability levels are unknown for women with musculoskeletal chronic pelvic pain (CPP) compared to healthy women. At this time, there is no validated treatment method aimed specifically at CPP. Objective To elucidate the PA habits and core stability of women with and without CPP.

A Novel Multidisciplinary Approach for Reptile Movement and Behavior Analysis

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, EarlyView.
We present a novel multidisciplinary approach capable of advancing research on reptiles’ behavior. Our approach uses integrated tools and methods for the digitization, reconstruction, and visualization of reptiles and their behavior. We (i) record movement through tri‐axial accelerometers, video cameras, and motion capture systems; (ii) ground‐truth ...

Relationships of Cognitive Function With Subsequent Device‐Measured Physical Activity and Sedentary Time in Healthy Individuals and Those With Bipolar Disorder: Findings From the UK Biobank

open access: yesActa Psychiatrica Scandinavica, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background In bipolar disorder (BD), physical inactivity and sedentary behaviour are prevalent and have been linked to BD's cognitive symptoms, although the directionality of these links is not clear. This proof‐of‐concept study examined whether cognitive function during mid‐ and later‐life was prospectively related to physical activity and ...
