Musculoskeletal and physiological responses to vortex wave stimulation in older adults

The Journal of Physiology, Volume 604, Issue 17, Page 7264-7286, 1 September 2026.
Abstract figure legend We explored the acute physiological effects of a novel mechanical stimulus, vortex wave stimulation (VWS), in healthy older adults. Using deuterated water and serial skeletal muscle biopsies, we showed that VWS elevated integrated rates of myofibrillar, but not sarcoplasmic muscle protein synthesis, with no changes observed in ...

Relationship between Sensory Integration, Postural Stability and Fall Risk Assessment Parameters Using Physical Therapy for Individuals after Traumatic Brain Injury

Reabilitacijos Mokslai: Slauga, Kineziterapija, Ergoterapija, 2019
Research background. Equilibrium and posture impairment is a common cause of collapse in individuals experiencing traumatic brain injury, which limits patient autonomy and independence in daily activities. Therefore, the recovery of balance is one of the

Examination of balance measures produced by the biodex stability system.

Journal of athletic training, 2010
Our purpose was to establish normal patterns and relationships of stability using the Biodex Stability System.The design of this study used both nonexperimental and quasi-experimental methods. All testing was performed in a university sports medicine laboratory.Nineteen healthy subjects (8 males, 11 females, age = 24.4 +/- 4.2 years; wt = 70.5 +/- 20 ...

Passive thigh heating increases peak torque but does not attenuate declines in force production during repeated isokinetic knee extensor exercise in older adults

Physiological Reports, Volume 14, Issue 18, September 2026.
Abstract Aging is associated with declines in muscle function, leading to increased functional fatigability. Passive heating has demonstrated positive effects on muscle function during brief exercise in older adults, but the impact of heating on repeated contractions remains unknown.

Accelerated Anthropometric Ageing Links Loss of Physical Function and Lower Extremity Body Mass

Journal of Cachexia, Sarcopenia and Muscle, Volume 17, Issue 4, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Ageing is associated with anthropometric changes that have been linked to functional limitations and disease risk. However, previous work is limited to a few anthropometric measures, such as body mass index or waist‐to‐height ratio.

EFFECTS OF BIODEX BALANCE SYSTEM TRAINING ON NEUROLOGICAL DISABILITY: ENHANCING BALANCE AND FUNCTIONAL ABILITIES

Insights – Journal of Health and Rehabilitation
Background: Neurological disorders commonly impair balance, mobility, and functional independence, contributing to elevated fall risk and long-term disability. Conventional physiotherapy offers therapeutic benefit but often lacks the precision of objective assessment and real-time biofeedback needed for targeted motor relearning.

Preoperative knee laxity is not associated with subjective knee function or revision surgery after primary anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction: An analysis of 5425 patients

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, Volume 34, Issue 8, Page 2814-2822, August 2026.
Abstract Purpose To determine whether preoperative knee laxity, as measured by the KT‐1000 arthrometer, was associated with subjective knee function preoperatively and at 1, 2 and 5 years, or with revision anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction (ACLR) within 5 years of the primary surgery.
