While research on chronic ankle instability (CAI) and awareness of its impact society health care systems has grown substantially in the last 2 decades, inconsistency participant/patient selection criteria across studies presents a potential obstacle to addressing problem properly. This major gap within literature limits ability generalise this evidence target patient population. Therefore, there is need provide standards for patient/participant focused CAI with justifications using best...
The International Ankle Consortium is an international community of researchers and clinicians whose primary scholastic purpose to promote scholarship dissemination research-informed knowledge related pathologies the ankle complex. constituents other similar organizations have yet properly define clinical phenomenon known as chronic instability (CAI) its characteristics for consistent patient recruitment advancement research in this area. Although on CAI awareness impact society healthcare...
Background: Impairments in motor control may predicate the paradigm of chronic ankle instability (CAI) that can develop year after an acute lateral sprain (LAS) injury. No prospective analysis is currently available identifying mechanisms by which these impairments and contribute to long-term outcome LAS. Purpose: To identify deficits predicating CAI a first-time LAS Study Design: Cohort study (diagnosis); Level evidence, 2. Methods: Eighty-two individuals were recruited sustaining Several...
Context: The Star Excursion Balance Test (SEBT) is a widely accepted method of assessing dynamic postural stability. Y (YBT) commercially available device for measuring balance that uses 3 (anterior, posteromedial, and posterolateral) the 8 SEBT directions has been advocated as balance. To date, no studies have compared reach performance in these tests healthy population. Objective: determine whether any differences exist between distance anterior, posterolateral YBT. Design: Descriptive...
Cities globally are grappling with the negative externalities of car travel and therefore striving to move towards a more sustainable urban transportation system. The introduction popularity new personal transport modes, such as e-scooters electric bicycles, could potentially accelerate this transition they become commonplace accepted into regulatory frameworks. integration these modes vehicles public systems, for example, enhance accessibility lead potential modal shifts away from private...
This research seeks to identify suitable locations for deploying community Electric Vehicle charging points using a Geographic Information System (GIS)-based approach. The infrastructure is classified into shared-residential, en-route, and destination types, each type's selection criteria are chosen according the characteristics of targeted end-users. investigation identified 770 ideal in Dublin that may be given priority initial installation infrastructure. Further, 3080 sites were later...
The first objective of this research was to examine the level stress caused by commuting into Dublin city centre. second determine value placed on comfort and reliability public transport services. An on-line survey workers who commute daily centre conducted, which collected data respondents’ typical commute, commute-related stress, socio-economic background. Commute satisfaction levels among users were found decrease for those travel crowded or unreliable services have long wait-times....
The aim of this study was to investigate motor control in subjects with functional instability the ankle joint. This achieved by analysing patterns lower extremity motion prior and immediately following landing during single leg jumping ankle. Fourteen unilateral 10 healthy performed jumps from a 40 cm height whilst angular displacement their knee joints were recorded. Subjects demonstrated significantly greater dorsiflexion over period encompassing ms pre 20 post (p < 0.05). They also...
Study Design Randomized controlled trial. Objectives To compare the effects of wobble board exercises with and without feedback provided through integrating movement into a computer game system, by comparing changes in postural stability motivation. Background Therapeutic exergaming systems may offer solution to poor adherence control exercise regimes improving motivation levels during performance. Methods Twenty-two healthy adults, randomly assigned an group (n = 11) 11), completed 12...
Retail electricity markets require development to ensure efficient and equitable pass through of wholesale costs customers. Customer engagement has been heralded as a concept improve the wholesale-to-retail link, better harness flexible demand loads co-ordinate distributed renewable generation storage. This study reviews state-of-the-art customer trends in retail markets, doing so, it first establishes definition context markets. Second, paper identifies that literature on revolves around...
COVID-19 has had a major impact on the transport systems around world. Several transport-related policies were implemented in short period of time to contain spread pandemic. These influence travel behavior and people's perception towards safety different modes transport, especially public thus affecting several sustainable mobility initiatives. To build resilient system rebuild trust it is important understand role The present study investigates relationship between reported infections...
The impacts of climate change have prompted governments to pledge introduce policies aiming limit the increasing temperature. One strategies involves reducing and, eventually, eliminating internal combustion engines in favour electric vehicles. This strategy has been implemented by many transportation services, and FREE NOW pledged be carbon neutral 2030. study analyses taxi fleet composition Dublin 2021 investigates reduction emissions from fully electrifying fleet. analysis uses an tool...
