Robot Simulations Based on Bipedal Spring-Mass Model With Variable Slack Length and Stiffness

IEEE Access, 2017
This paper proposed an extension of bipedal spring-mass model with variable slack length and stiffness. Since conventional bipedal spring-mass model has problems to accomplish stepping and low speed walking, we solve it by adjusting slack length of ...

Predictive simulations identify potential neuromuscular contributors to idiopathic toe walking [PDF]

Background: Most cases of toe walking in children are idiopathic. We used pathology-specific neuromusculoskeletal predictive simulations to identify potential underlying neural and muscular mechanisms contributing to idiopathic toe walking.

A Novel Splice Variant in ERGIC1 Causes Arthrogryposis Multiplex Congenita—Characterization Using Urine‐Derived Cells

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part C: Seminars in Medical Genetics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Arthrogryposis multiplex congenita (AMC) is defined as the presence of joint contractures affecting at least two body regions at birth. Three different ERGIC1 variants have been reported in individuals with AMC. Here, we report on a 16‐year‐old male with a homozygous ERGIC1 c.250+1G>A variant that was classified as a variant of uncertain ...

Monoallelic POLR3A Variants Cause Early‐Onset Peripheral Neuropathy

Annals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Objective Biallelic variants in genes encoding the RNA polymerase III complex (Pol III) cause a spectrum of neurological disorders primarily affecting the central nervous system. Monoallelic variants have been reported in the POLR3B subunit only, associated with neurodevelopmental disorder, epilepsy, and peripheral neuropathy.

Feedforward neural control of toe walking in humans [PDF]

, 2018
Toe walking requires careful control of the ankle muscles in order to absorb the impact of ground contact and maintain a stable position of the joint. The present study aimed to clarify the peripheral and central neural mechanisms involved.

Integrating yoga into anatomy and clinical medicine education: A holistic approach to learning

Anatomical Sciences Education, EarlyView.
Abstract Anatomical knowledge is fundamental for success in clinical settings. Unfortunately, anatomy education within professional health programs has experienced a continual decrease in contact hours and curricular content over the previous two decades, leading to deficits and potential gaps in anatomical science knowledge.

Motor Disorders in Autism: From Comorbidity to Core Criterion

Autism Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT While repetitive movements are recognized as a diagnostic hallmark of Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) in frameworks such as the DSM and ICD, other motor disturbances, including gait atypicalities and postural control difficulties, have historically been overlooked or framed as secondary comorbidities.
