Life around the scallop theorem

, 2010
Locomotion on small scales is dominated by the effects of viscous forces and, as a result, is subject to strong physical and mathematical constraints.

Categorisation of activities of daily living of lower limb amputees during short-term use of a portable kinetic recording system: a preliminary study [PDF]

, 2011
The purpose of this preliminary study was to determine the relevance of the categorisation of the load regime data to assess the functional output and usage of the prosthesis of lower limb amputees.

Earthing effects on mitochondrial function: ATP production and ROS generation

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
In contrast to sham and naive controls, grounded mitochondria not only exhibit significantly enhanced energy production but also demonstrate a remarkable reduction in membrane potential and oxidative stress. This suggests a profound improvement in mitochondrial health, presenting a promising avenue for therapeutic interventions.

Co‐overexpression of the caloric restriction‐induced mitochondrial factors PGC‐1α and MIPEP upregulates Phospho1 expression in adipocytes

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Caloric restriction that extends lifespan induces the expression of PGC‐1α and MIPEP in white adipose tissue. In this study, co‐overexpression of Pgc‐1α and Mipep upregulated the gene expression of PHOSPHO1. These findings provide new insights into mitochondria‐related mechanisms underlying the effects of caloric restriction in adipocytes.

Immediate Effects of Wearing an Ankle Bandage on Fine Coordination, Proprioception, Balance and Gait in the Subacute Phase of Ankle Sprains

Life
Ankle sprains are the most frequently occurring musculoskeletal injuries among recreational athletes. Ankle support through bandages following the initial orthotic treatment might be beneficial for rehabilitation purposes.

Modeling and Control of a Soft Robotic Fish with Integrated Soft Sensing

Advanced Intelligent Systems, 2023
Soft robotics can be used not only as a means of achieving novel, more lifelike forms of locomotion, but also as a tool to understand complex biomechanics through the use of robotic model animals.

Precision‐Optimised Post‐Stroke Prognoses

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Current medicine cannot confidently predict who will recover from post‐stroke impairments. Researchers have sought to bridge this gap by treating the post‐stroke prognostic problem as a machine learning problem, reporting prediction error metrics across samples of patients whose outcomes are known.
