Compensatory Effects of Joint Bracing From a Kinetic Chain Perspective: Lower Limb Movement Coordination Analysis During Badminton Lunge Movements

European Journal of Sport Science, Volume 26, Issue 7, July 2026.
ABSTRACT This study investigated ankle, knee, and hip joint movement coordination during brace use via a lower‐limb kinematic chain approach, which may influence biomechanical factors associated with injury risk. Twenty badminton players performed a left forecourt kick lunge under four brace conditions. Kinematic and kinetic data were collected using a

Quantitative Muscle MRI of the Lower Extremities Reveals Different Patterns of Involvement in Classic Infantile and Young Late‐Onset Pompe Patients

Journal of Inherited Metabolic Disease, Volume 49, Issue 4, July 2026.
ABSTRACT With increased survival due to enzyme replacement therapy, children with classic infantile Pompe disease tend to develop a clinical phenotype with pronounced distal muscle weakness, while late‐onset patients typically exhibit proximal muscle weakness.

Parasports for cerebral palsy: Thinking and ‘prescribing’ beyond the Paralympics

Developmental Medicine &Child Neurology, Volume 68, Issue 7, Page 896-902, July 2026.
This narrative review synthesizes current evidence on parasport participation for individuals with cerebral palsy, highlighting key benefits, and providing sport‐specific adaptations that enhance accessibility of parasport. Abstract The landscape of care for individuals with cerebral palsy (CP) has evolved far beyond ‘fixing’ impairments toward a life ...

Textile Actuation Based on In‐Air Actuating Polypyrrole‐Based Tape Yarns for Wearable Soft Robotics: Toward On‐Body Applications

Advanced Robotics Research, Volume 2, Issue 3, June 2026.
This work reports on the actuation behavior of CP‐based polypyrrole/PVdF TYs soaked in electrolyte/ionic liquids and woven actuators where such TYs are integrated. These studies are important toward the creation of on‐body applications such as wearable soft robotics, where textiles offer many advantages such as increased force, integrated electrical ...
