Technologies for equine welfare and performance monitoring under field conditions – Where do we stand?

Equine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract The need for comprehensive equine welfare assessments has become particularly evident amid ongoing debates about the social licence to operate in equestrian sports. During exercise, multiple physiological systems, principally the cardiovascular, respiratory, muscular, thermoregulatory, endocrine, and locomotory systems, undergo complex ...

Quantifying forearm muscle activity during wrist and finger movements by means of multi-channel electromyography. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2014
The study of hand and finger movement is an important topic with applications in prosthetics, rehabilitation, and ergonomics. Surface electromyography (sEMG) is the gold standard for the analysis of muscle activation.

sEMG Based Human Motion Intention Recognition [PDF]

Journal of Robotics, 2019
Human motion intention recognition is a key to achieve perfect human-machine coordination and wearing comfort of wearable robots. Surface electromyography (sEMG), as a bioelectrical signal, generates prior to the corresponding motion and reflects the human motion intention directly. Thus, a better human-machine interaction can be achieved by using sEMG

Clear Aligners and Bruxism: A Systematic Review

Journal of Oral Rehabilitation, EarlyView.
This study aimed to systematically evaluate the relationship between clear aligner therapy and bruxism, including both sleep and awake bruxism, to determine whether aligners act as a neutral factor, protective agent, or risk factor. The findings indicate that no definitive conclusion can be drawn, as the current evidence is limited and contradictory ...

NEX4EX – A novel exercise device enabling resistive, plyometric and sensorimotor training during deep‐space missions: A case report

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract During weightlessness, the human neuro–muscular–skeletal system undergoes maladaptation to the microgravity environment. The European Space Agency (ESA) project NEX4EX, ‘Novel Exercise Hardware for Exploration’, developed an advanced multipurpose exerciser offering resistive (RES), plyometric (PLYO) and sensorimotor (SENSO) exercises.
