Optimization reduces knee-joint forces during walking and squatting: Validating the inverse dynamics approach for full body movements on instrumented knee prostheses [PDF]
arXiv, 2021 Due to the redundancy of our motor system, movements can be performed in many ways. While multiple motor control strategies can all lead to the desired behavior, they result in different joint and muscle forces. This creates opportunities to explore this redundancy, e.g., for pain avoidance or reducing the risk of further injury.

Statistical Applications in Pain Management: A Review [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 Chronic pain is a widespread and debilitating condition that affects millions of individuals worldwide. Recent research has unveiled a connection between chronic pain and epigenetic processes, shedding light on the complex interplay between genetics, environment, and pain perception.

The Global Burden of Musculoskeletal Pain-Where to From Here?
American Journal of Public Health, 2019 To summarize the current understanding of the global burden of musculoskeletal pain-related conditions, consider the process of evidence generation and the steps to generate global pain estimates, identify key gaps in our understanding, and propose an ...

Stress-induced hyperalgesia instead of analgesia in patients with chronic musculoskeletal pain [PDF]
arXiv, 2019 Many individuals with chronic musculoskeletal pain (CMP) show impairments in their pain-modulatory capacity. Although stress plays an important role in chronic pain, it is not known if stress-induced analgesia (SIA) is affected in patients with CMP. We investigated SIA in 22 patients with CMP and 18 pain-free participants.

Automatic pain recognition from Blood Volume Pulse (BVP) signal using machine learning techniques [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 Physiological responses to pain have received increasing attention among researchers for developing an automated pain recognition sensing system. Though less explored, Blood Volume Pulse (BVP) is one of the candidate physiological measures that could help objective pain assessment. In this study, we applied machine learning techniques on BVP signals to

Equine Pain Behavior Classification via Self-Supervised Disentangled Pose Representation [PDF]
arXiv, 2021 Timely detection of horse pain is important for equine welfare. Horses express pain through their facial and body behavior, but may hide signs of pain from unfamiliar human observers. In addition, collecting visual data with detailed annotation of horse behavior and pain state is both cumbersome and not scalable.

On Systemic Destruction of Human Locomotor System [PDF]
arXiv, 2013 Locomotor system disorders affect a vast majority of people at some time in their life bringing pain, functional limitations, social and economic implications. Modern medicine cannot offer prevention and effective treatment for most chronic musculoskeletal conditions, because their etiology and pathogenesis are unknown.

Design of an assistive trunk exoskeleton based on multibody dynamic modelling [PDF]
arXiv, 2019 Low back pain is one of the most common musculoskeletal disorder. To reduce its incidences, some back exoskeletons have been designed and already commercialized. However, there is a gap between the phases of device and testing on subjects. In fact, the main unsolved problem is the lack of realistic simulation of human-device interaction.

Therapeutic Management of Sacro-coccygeal compression in a Green Iguana (Iguana iguana) [PDF]
arXiv, 2020 In reptiles, especially during their early stage of life when reared under captive conditions, nutritional deficiencies are the most common problems reported in them affecting the spinal cord and the musculoskeletal system. More often green iguanas and snakes are very much vulnerable to it.
