Design and Evaluation of a Pneumatic-Actuated Active Balance Board for Sitting Postural Control [PDF]
Chronic low back pain (cLBP) is a pervasive and debilitating condition that can result in motor control deficits and often leads to opioid dependence. Conventional rehabilitation approaches generally rely on internally driven tasks, which fail to capture

Study on the Effects of Different Seat and Leg Support Conditions of a Trunk Rehabilitation Robot
Performance of trunk rehabilitation exercises while sitting on movable surfaces with feet on the ground can increase trunk and leg muscle activations, and constraining the feet to move with the seat isolates control of the trunk.

The role of age, sex, anthropometry, and body composition as determinants of physical fitness in nonobese children aged 6–12 [PDF]
Purpose The determinants of physical fitness in children have been given limited attention. In particular, the relative role of chronological age, sex, anthropometry, and body composition in physical fitness of children has been barely investigated. This

Multimodal cortical and subcortical exercise compared with treadmill training for spinal cord injury. [PDF]
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE:Spared fibers after spinal cord injury (SCI) tend to consist predominantly of subcortical circuits that are not under volitional (cortical) control. We aim to improve function after SCI by using targeted physical exercises designed

Quantifying trunk neuromuscular control using seated balancing and stability threshold [PDF]
Performance during seated balancing is often used to assess trunk neuromuscular control, including evaluating impairments in back pain populations. Balancing in less challenging environments allows for flexibility in control, which may not depend on health status but instead may reflect personal preferences.
