An Intensity Measure‐Based Methodology for Ground Motion Orientation in Seismic Structural Assessment

Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In current dynamic time history assessment protocols, ground motion recordings are mostly oriented along fixed sensor directions. Consequently, the orientation of the principal resultant of rupture energy, which may control the maximum structural demand, remains undefined, precluding consistent correlation with physically detrimental ...

Simultaneous 3/4‐power scaling of leaf mass and 2/3‐power scaling of leaf area with stem mass in plants

Grassland Research, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Plant allometry theory developed in the last century focused on 2/3‐power scaling, determined by light interception considerations. More recently, 3/4‐power scaling based on the properties of vascular distribution networks has been proposed.

Treatment With the Shaker Head‐Lift Exercise in Head and Neck Cancer Patients With Radiation‐Induced Dysphagia: 12‐Month Results on Swallowing Function From a Randomized, Controlled Trial

Head &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Dysphagia is a common side‐effect after radiotherapy in head and neck cancer patients. This randomized study aimed to evaluate the effect of the shaker head‐lift exercise (HLE) after 12 months with flexible endoscopic evaluation of swallowing (FEES). Methods Patients were randomly assigned to the intervention (n = 30) or the control

Prevention of Work‐Related Musculoskeletal Disorders and Career Sustainability in Head and Neck Reconstructive Surgery: Integrating Ergonomics and Physical Conditioning

Head &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Head and neck reconstructive and plastic surgery exposes surgeons to prolonged static posture, sustained visualization of a narrow operative field, cervical and shoulder loading, fine‐motor work, and extended standing. These demands create a substantial occupational musculoskeletal burden.

Spatiotemporal dynamics of brain function network during proprioception rehabilitation after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction: A randomized trial

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
The improvement of proprioceptive function after ACLR is related to the optimization of spatiotemporal dynamics of SM, CC, DM, CB and VI functional networks. Rehabilitation optimization can incorporate visual–cognitive dual‐task exercises. Abstract Purpose In this study, we aimed to examine the dynamic functional network connectivity (dFNC) patterns ...

Similar dynamic tibiofemoral movements during jump‐landing and walking but distinct hamstrings strength across ACL reconstruction autograft types at mid‐term follow‐up

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Dynamic tibiofemoral movements following anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR) with quadriceps tendon (QT) autografts have not yet been compared to other autografts. We aimed to compare dynamic anterior tibial translation (ATTd) and internal tibial rotation (ITRd) during jump‐landing and walking among patients with QT, bone ...

Impact of hamstring versus quadriceps tendon graft on thigh muscle strength and surface electromyography activity after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose To compare quadriceps tendon (QT) and hamstring tendon (HT) autografts regarding isometric thigh muscle strength, surface electromyography (sEMG) activity and clinical outcomes following anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR).
