Rhythms of Locomotion Expressed by Limulus polyphemus, the American Horseshoe Crab: II. Relationship to Circadian Rhythms of Visual Sensitivity [PDF]
, 2008 In the laboratory, horseshoe crabs express a circadian rhythm of visual sensitivity as well as daily and circatidal rhythms of locomotion. The major goal of this investigation was to determine whether the circadian clock underlying changes in visual ...

European Journal of Applied Physiology and Occupational Physiology, 1994 The hypothesis that Pygmies may differ from Caucasians in some aspects of the mechanics of locomotion was tested. A total of 13 Pygmies and 7 Caucasians were asked to walk and run on a treadmill at 4-12 km.h-1. Simultaneous metabolic measurements and three-dimensional motion analysis were performed allowing the energy expenditure and the mechanical ...

Managing intra-articular deformity in high Tibial osteotomy: a narrative review
Journal of Experimental Orthopaedics, 2020 The joint line convergence angle (JLCA) has a normal range between 0° to 2°, which increases in magnitude depending on the severity and stage of osteoarthritis in the knee. The JLCA represents the interaction of the intra-articular deformity arising from

An integrated neuro-mechanical model of C. elegans forward locomotion [PDF]
, 2007 One of the most tractable organisms for the study of nervous systems is the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans, whose locomotion in particular has been the subject of a number of models.

Different visual manipulations have similar effects on quasi-static and dynamic balance responses of young and older people [PDF]
PeerJ, 2021 Background Studies demonstrated that the older adults can be more susceptible to balance instability after acute visual manipulation. There are different manipulation approaches used to investigate the importance of visual inputs on balance, e.g., eyes ...

Dedicated hippocampal inhibitory networks for locomotion and immobility [PDF]
, 2017 Network activity is strongly tied to animal movement; however, hippocampal circuits selectively engaged during locomotion or immobility remain poorly characterized.

Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2022 Dystrophin Dp71 is an isoform produced from the Dp71 promoter in intron 62 of the DMD gene, mutations in which cause Duchenne muscular dystrophy. Dp71 is involved in various cellular processes and comprises more than 10 isoforms produced by alternative ...
