Patellar maltracking may result in many patellofemoral joint (PFJ) disorders in the natural and replaced knee. The literature providing quantitative reference for normal PFJ kinematics according to which patellar maltracking could be identified is ... Read more...
Body size and joint posture in primates.
29 Sep 2009 Body mass has been shown in experimental and comparative morphological studies to have a significant effect on joint posture in major limb joints. The generalizability of experimental studies is limited by their use of small sample sizes and limited ... Read more...
Lower limb position during treadmill jogging and fast running in microgravity.
29 Sep 2009 INTRODUCTION: The second-generation ISS treadmill has a faster maximum operating speed than the current ISS treadmill. In normal gravity (1 G), bone loading benefits and cardiorespiratory stress are directly related to locomotion speed. A kinematic ... Read more...
