On-field player workload exposure and knee injury risk monitoring via deep learning

open access: yes, 2019
In sports analytics, an understanding of accurate on-field 3D knee joint moments (KJM) could provide an early warning system for athlete workload exposure and knee injury risk.

Kinematic Foot Types in Youth with Equinovarus Secondary to Hemiplegia [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Background Elevated kinematic variability of the foot and ankle segments exists during gait among individuals with equinovarus secondary to hemiplegic cerebral palsy (CP). Clinicians have previously addressed such variability by developing classification

Body Composition and Muscle Function in Bronchiectasis: A Comparative Longitudinal Study

open access: yesRespirology, EarlyView.
We compared body composition and muscle function in adults with bronchiectasis versus controls and assessed if leg strength estimates 1‐year outcomes. Patients with bronchiectasis had lower muscle mass, bone density, and leg strength. Reduced leg strength is associated with worse dyspnoea, quality of life, and functional capacity, highlighting the need

Proteomic profile of CSF obtained at the time of diagnosis determines amyotrophic lateral sclerosis progression and survival: CXCL7 levels in disease prognosis and survival

open access: yesBrain Pathology, EarlyView.
Untargeted multiomic profiling of cerebrospinal fluid reveals that proteomic, but not lipidomic, signatures robustly distinguish ALS patients from controls and stratify individuals by survival, highlighting marked molecular differences between short survival and long survival disease.

Instantaneous and Cumulative Knee Joint Loading in Cycling With and Without Medial Knee Osteoarthritis. [PDF]

open access: yesScand J Med Sci Sports
ABSTRACT Medial knee osteoarthritis (KOA) is characterized by altered joint loading that accelerates disease progression. Cycling is often recommended as a low‐impact exercise, yet the instantaneous and cumulative determinants of knee joint loading remain unclear. This study examined cyclists with and without KOA to characterize how power, cadence, and

Inferring muscle functional roles of the ostrich pelvic limb during walking and running using computer optimization [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Owing to their cursorial background, ostriches (Struthio camelus) walk and run with high metabolic economy, can reach very fast running speeds and quickly execute cutting manoeuvres.

Three‐year outcomes of repeated botulinum neurotoxin A injections to the lower extremities in young children with spastic cerebral palsy in GMFCS levels I to III

open access: yesDevelopmental Medicine &Child Neurology, EarlyView.
In this study, we followed a group of children 2 to 6 years old with spastic cerebral palsy functioning in GMFCS levels I–III, over 3 years. Sixty‐five received BoNT‐A and 59 did not. Repeated BoNT‐A injections over 3 years were not associated with improvements in gross motor function or passive ankle dorsiflexion. Daily step counts, favouring the BoNT‐

The effect of surface inclination and limb on knee loading measures in transtibial prosthesis users

open access: yesJournal of NeuroEngineering and Rehabilitation, 2019
Background Osteoarthritis (OA) is a degenerative disease caused by the wearing of joint cartilage and bone. Literature has established that a prosthesis user’s intact limb is at greater risk of developing OA.
