Low-level finite state control of knee joint in paraplegic standing [PDF]
, 1992 Low-level finite state (locked-unlocked) control is compared with open-loop stimulation of the knee extensor muscles in functional electrical stimulation (FES) induced paraplegic standing.

Are joint torque models limited by an assumption of monoarticularity? [PDF]
, 2012 This study determines whether maximal voluntary ankle plantar flexor torque could be more accurately represented using a torque generator that is a function of both knee and ankle kinematics.

Two-week joint mobilization intervention improves self-reported function, range of motion, and dynamic balance in those with chronic ankle instability [PDF]
, 2012 We examined the effect of a 2-week anterior-to-posterior ankle joint mobilization intervention on weight-bearing dorsiflexion range of motion (ROM), dynamic balance, and self-reported function in subjects with chronic ankle instability (CAI).

SAGE Open Medical Case Reports, 2014 We often see painful ankle joint destruction with painful hindfoot valgus deformity in rheumatoid arthritis. Our policy in such cases has been to first correct the hindfoot deformity in the subtalar joint with fusion, but then ankle joint pain has been ...

Analysis of Ankle Muscle Dynamics during the STS Process Based on Wearable Sensors
Sensors, 2023 Ankle joint moment is an important indicator for evaluating the stability of the human body during the sit-to-stand (STS) movement, so a method to analyze ankle joint moment is needed.

A review of the differences between normal and osteoarthritis articular cartilage in human knee and ankle joints [PDF]
, 2009 Background: Osteoarthritis (OA) is the most common joint disease yet its pathophysiology is still poorly understood. It is more prevalent in some lower limb joints than others; in particular the knee is more commonly affected than the ankle.

Vertical stiffness asymmetries during drop jumping are related to ankle stiffness asymmetries [PDF]
, 2016 Asymmetry in vertical stiffness has been associated with increased injury incidence and impaired performance. The determinants of vertical stiffness asymmetry have not been previously investigated.
