Gait patterns in COPD: the Rotterdam Study [PDF]

open access: yesEuropean Respiratory Journal, 2015
Gait disturbances in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) may lead to disability and falls. As studies assessing gait kinematics in COPD are sparse, we investigated associations of COPD with various gait domains and explored a potential link with falling.Gait was measured within the prospective, population-based Rotterdam Study ...

New Area Based Metrics for Automatic Gait Recognition

open access: yes, 2001
Gait is a new biometric aimed to recognise a subject by the manner in which they walk. Gait has several advantages over other biometrics, most notably that it is non-invasive and perceivable at a distance when other biometrics are obscured.

Gait pattern generation for a power-assist device of paraplegic gait

open access: yesRO-MAN 2009 - The 18th IEEE International Symposium on Robot and Human Interactive Communication, 2009
We address a gait pattern generation on a legged locomotor device (WPAL: wearable power-assist locomotor) for paraplegics. In the gait movement with WPAL, a backward falling is a considerable problem, and a foot-floor collision during a swing movement would induce a loss of balance.

Gait pattern after electromechanically-assisted gait training with the Hybrid Assistive Limb and conventional gait training in sub-acute stroke rehabilitation—A subsample from a randomized controlled trial

open access: yesFrontiers in Neurology, 2023
IntroductionElectromechanically-assisted gait training has been introduced in stroke rehabilitation as a means to enable gait training with a large number of reproducible and symmetrical task repetitions, i.e. steps.

Comparing Different Template Features for Recognizing People by Their Gait

open access: yes, 1998
To recognize people by their gait from a sequence of images, we have proposed a statistical approach which combined eigenspace transformation (EST) with canonical space transformation (CST) for feature transformation of spatial templates.

Exploratory Factor Analysis of Gait Recognition

open access: yes, 2008
Many studies have now shown that it is possible to recognize people by the way they walk. As yet there has been little formal study of the effects of covariates on the recognition process.

Sagittal gait patterns in spastic diplegia [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of Bone and Joint Surgery. British volume, 2004
Classifications of gait patterns in spastic diplegia have been either qualitative, based on clinical recognition, or quantitative, based on cluster analysis of kinematic data. Qualitative classifications have been much more widely used but concerns have been raised about the validity of classifications, which are not based on quantitative data.

Effectiveness of Resistance Intradialytic Exercise Compared to Aerobic Intradialytic Exercise for Patients With Chronic Kidney Disease: A Randomized Controlled Clinical Trial

open access: yesTherapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Patients with chronic kidney disease undergoing hemodialysis commonly experience reduced physical function, fatigue, poor sleep quality, and impaired health‐related quality of life. Intradialytic exercise has been proposed as a non‐pharmacological strategy to improve these outcomes.
