Kinematic analysis of preterm newborns' spontaneous movements for postural activity assessment
Biomedical Papers, 2015 Aims: The objectives of this pilot study were to assess the potential use of 3D videography for analyzing the motion of the body center of mass (COM) in newborns and to determine differences in spontaneous movements between preterm and full-term infants.

Defensive functions and potential ecological conflicts of floral stickiness
Scientific Reports, 2022 Stickiness of vegetative tissues has evolved multiple times in different plant families but is rare and understudied in flowers. While stickiness in general is thought to function primarily as a defense against herbivores, it may compromise mutualistic ...

ENGINEERING CONCEPTS IN ANALYSING LUMBOSACRAL LOAD IN POST-OPERATIVE SCOLIOTIC PATIENTS [PDF]
Journal of Engineering Science and Technology, 2018 Lumbosacral alignment plays a major role in the mechanical low back pain in normal population. Malalignment causes increased strain to the muscles and ligaments around it which eventually leads to mechanical low back pain and discomfort.

The Margin of Stability During a Single-Turn Pirouette in Female Amateur Dancers: A Pilot Study
Applied SciencesBalance control in pirouettes has previously been characterized by constraint of the topple angle. However, there is a paucity of research using the margin of stability (MoS) as a dynamic measure of balance related to pirouettes.
