Monitoring Methods of Human Body Joints: State-of-the-Art and Research Challenges

open access: yesSensors, 2019
The world’s population is aging: the expansion of the older adult population with multiple physical and health issues is now a huge socio-economic concern worldwide. Among these issues, the loss of mobility among older adults due to musculoskeletal

Employing Shadows for Multi-Person Tracking Based on a Single RGB-D Camera

open access: yesSensors, 2020
Although there are many algorithms to track people that are walking, existing methods mostly fail to cope with occluded bodies in the setting of multi-person tracking with one camera.

An unusual vertical swelling over the back

open access: yesApollo Medicine, 2019
Skeletal tuberculosis (TB) accounts for 1%–2% of all types of TB. The most common form of skeletal TB is Pott's disease, a disease of the spine; this entity comprises approximately half of skeletal TB cases.

Weighted averaging fusion for multi‐view skeletal data and its application in action recognition

open access: yesIET Computer Vision, 2016
Existing studies in skeleton‐based action recognition mainly utilise skeletal data taken from a single camera. Since the quality of skeletal tracking of a single camera is noisy and unreliable, however, combining data from multiple cameras can improve ...

Latent Ergonomics Maps: Real-Time Visualization of Estimated Ergonomics of Human Movements

open access: yesSensors, 2022
Improving the ergonomy of working environments is essential to reducing work-related musculo-skeletal disorders. We consider real-time ergonomic feedback a key technology for achieving such improvements.

Modelling the skeletal muscle injury recovery using in vivo contrast-enhanced micro-CT: a proof-of-concept study in a rat model

open access: yesEuropean Radiology Experimental, 2020
Background Skeletal muscle injury characterisation during healing supports trauma prognosis. Given the potential interest of computed tomography (CT) in muscle diseases and lack of in vivo CT methodology to image skeletal muscle wound healing, we tracked

Residual tail twisting in ascidian larvae is stabilized by asymmetric myofibrils that resist bilateral symmetry restoration

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Ascidian Ciona larvae initially show strong clockwise tail twisting, which is largely corrected during development. However, a small residual twist remains. This study shows that organized helical myofibrils in tail muscles mechanically stabilize this residual asymmetry, preventing complete restoration of bilateral symmetry and revealing how embryos ...

Quantitative diffusion tensor MRI-based fiber tracking of human skeletal muscle [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Applied Physiology, 2007
Diffusion-tensor magnetic resonance imaging (DT-MRI) offers great potential for understanding structure-function relationships in human skeletal muscles. The purposes of this study were to demonstrate the feasibility of using in vivo human DT-MRI fiber tracking data for making pennation angle measurements and to test the hypothesis that heterogeneity ...

Peripheral lysosomes recruit PLEKHG3 to focal adhesions and restrain protrusion dynamics

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Proximity‐dependent labeling at the LAMTOR complex revealed the Rho GEF PLEKHG3 as a lysosome‐proximal protein directing the study toward the influence of lysosome positioning on actin dynamics and cell motility. We show that PLEKHG3 colocalizes with lysosomes at focal adhesion sites and observe that forced peripheral dispersion of lysosomes hinders ...
