Stair-Fall Risk Parameters in a Controlled Gait Laboratory Environment and Real (Domestic) Houses: A Prospective Study in Faller and Non-Faller Groups

open access: yesSensors
Background: Falling on stairs is a major health hazard for older people. Risk factors for stair falls have been identified, but these are mostly examined in controlled biomechanics/gait laboratory environments, on experimental stairs with a given set of ...

« Plus rien à prouver » : marche, course, escalade extrêmes

open access: yesRevue Italienne d'Etudes Françaises, 2021
Our research falls within the sphere of the linguistic disciplines, and in particular of the discourse analysis of the French school, privileging lexical data and phrasal items in the corpus we have compiled.

Recovery markers in elite climbers after the national boulder climbing championship

open access: yesFrontiers in Sports and Active Living
This study aimed to investigate recovery markers among elite climbers following the National Boulder Championship. We assessed maximum isometric hand grip strength (HS), forearm swelling (circumference), delayed soreness in forearm muscles, tiredness ...

Acute Responses to Forearm Compression of Blood Lactate Accumulation, Heart Rate, Perceived Exertion, and Muscle Pain in Elite Climbers

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2018
Objectives: To evaluate the immediate responses to forearm compression of blood lactate concentration, heart rate, perceived exertion and local forearm muscle pain during severe climbing in elite climbers.Method: Seven elite climbers (18 ± 2 years; 164 ±

Mechanical loading of primate fingers on vertical rock surfaces

open access: yesSouth African Journal of Science, 2021
Mechanical loading of finger bones (phalanges) can induce angular curvature, which benefits arboreal primates by dissipating forces and economising the recruitment of muscles during climbing.

The dual nature of TDC – bridging dendritic and T cells in immunity

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
TDC are hematopoietic cells combining dendritic and T cell features. They reach secondary lymphoid organs (SLOs) and peripheral organs (liver and lungs) after FLT3‐dependent development in the bone marrow and maturation in the thymus. TDC are activated and enriched in SLOs upon viral infection, suggesting that they might play unique immune roles, since

Analysis of Climbing Postures and Movements in Sport Climbing for Realistic 3D Climbing Animations

open access: yesProcedia Engineering, 2015
AbstractRecently, sport climbing has become popular throughout the world. Sport climbing is an extreme sport where people climb an artificial wall with various artificial holds using their hands and feet. Technique training related to using hands and feet is necessary for novice climbers, hence we need effective training contents.

Inverted and vertical climbing of a quadrupedal microrobot using electroadhesion

open access: yesScience Robotics, 2018
A legged microrobot can climb inverted and vertical surfaces by using voltage-controlled electroadhesion and a newly designed gait. The ability to climb greatly increases the reachable workspace of terrestrial robots, improving their utility for ...

Leveraging current insights on IL‐10‐producing dendritic cells for developing effective immunotherapeutic approaches

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
In vivo IL‐10 produced by tissue‐resident tolDC is involved in maintaining/inducing tolerance. Depending on the agent used for ex vivo tolDC generation, cells acquire common features but prime T cells towards anergy, FOXP3+ Tregs, or Tr1 cells according to the levels of IL‐10 produced. Ex vivo‐induced tolDC were administered to patients to re‐establish/
