Quantitative assessment of gait alterations and variability in sulky‐driven Standardbred trotters after a standardised exercise test

Equine Veterinary Journal, Volume 58, Issue 5, Page 1482-1492, September 2026.
Abstract Background Assessment of equine metabolic and locomotory responses to quantified levels of physical exercise is needed to support the creation of tailored protocols for optimal training adaptation. The locomotory response to exercise in horses is not fully understood.

The effect of full‐limb flexion tests on static and dynamic muscle activity and locomotion asymmetry in owner‐sound horses

Equine Veterinary Journal, Volume 58, Issue 5, Page 1505-1517, September 2026.
Abstract Background Flexion tests are commonly used in equine locomotion examinations to identify underlying locomotor issues, yet their neuromuscular effects remain poorly understood. Response variability raises concerns about their clinical value in lameness assessments and pre‐purchase evaluations.

Early identification of vascular cognitive impairment from a multimodal perspective: a combined diagnosis from targeted cognitive assessments, imaging biomarkers, and molecular fluid biomarkers to ecological behavioral characteristics

Alzheimer's &Dementia, Volume 22, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract Vascular cognitive impairment (VCI), the second leading cause of dementia, is characterized by heterogeneous pathophysiology and a potentially reversible early phase, underscoring the need for timely identification. This review synthesizes advances across four complementary domains – targeted cognitive assessments, imaging biomarkers ...

Validation of Pelvis and Trunk Range of Motion as Assessed Using Inertial Measurement Units

Bioengineering
Trunk and pelvis range of motion (ROM) is essential to perform activities of daily living. The ROM may become limited with aging or with neuromusculoskeletal disorders.

ResT-IMU: A Two-Stage ResNet-Transformer Framework for Inertial Measurement Unit Localization

Sensors
To address the challenges of accurate indoor positioning in complex environments, this paper proposes a two-stage indoor positioning method, ResT-IMU, which integrates the ResNet and Transformer architectures. The method initially processes the IMU data using Kalman filtering, followed by the application of windowing to the data.

A primer on forest structure measurement with lidar for ecologists

Ecosphere, Volume 17, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract Light detection and ranging (lidar) technology has fundamentally advanced the way we measure forest structure, facilitating new insights into ecological processes. Lidar for forest ecology applications is deployed on multiple types of platforms that operate from the ground, air, or space, and each has associated strengths and limitations ...

Effect of Task Constraints During Drop Vertical Jump Test on Movement Variability in Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstructed Female Basketball Players: A Nonlinear Approach

European Journal of Sport Science, Volume 26, Issue 8, August 2026.
ABSTRACT The aim of this study was to analyze the impact of an Anterior Cruciate Ligament (ACL) injury on movement variability (MV) and biomechanical variables in female basketball players during a drop vertical jump (DVJ) task, both with and without a ball. Female basketball players (n = 15) participated in this study.

An Accelerometer‐Equipped Running Watch Provides a Valid Estimate of Peak Vertical Ground Reaction Force and Cumulative Weighted Damage: A Cross‐Sectional Laboratory Study

European Journal of Sport Science, Volume 26, Issue 8, August 2026.
ABSTRACT We validated a wearable accelerometer and running watch for estimating peak vertical ground reaction force (vGRF) and cumulative weighted damage (CWD). First, 18 well‐trained runners of equal sex distribution (3.3 ± 0.3 m/s habitual training pace) ran a range of speeds (2.7–4.0 m/s, plus training pace) on an instrumented treadmill as reference

Toward Autonomous Clinics: Human–Robot Collaboration in Clinical Care

MedComm, Volume 7, Issue 8, August 2026.
This graphical abstract summarizes the conceptual structure of human–robot collaboration (HRC) for autonomous clinical systems. The framework is organized around a dual‐brain architecture in which a professional brain supports clinical reasoning tasks such as diagnosis, image analysis, treatment planning, and patient monitoring, while a physical brain ...

Mandibular Movement Monitoring in Children With Neurodisability

Pediatric Pulmonology, Volume 61, Issue 8, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) in children is diagnosed using polysomnography (PSG), but children with neurodisability are >3 times more likely to not tolerate leads and sensors. The diagnostic accuracy of Sunrise, a small sensor applied to the chin, has not been assessed in this special population.
