Telerehabilitation, as an effective means of treatment, is not inferior to traditional rehabilitation, and solves the problem many patients who do have access hospital-based training due costs distance. So far, knowledge structure global use telerehabilitation has been formed. This study aimed demonstrate state emerging trends frontiers concerning studies through bibliometric software.Literature about from 2000 2021 was retrieved Web Science Core Collection. We used CiteSpace 5.8.R3 analyze...
Introduction Stroke patients with hemiplegia are at an increased risk of falling during sit-to-stand (Si-St) and stand-to-sit (St-Si) tasks, partly due to impaired bilateral lower limb symmetry. Maintaining symmetrical movement between the limbs in these tasks can help reduce fall incidence. Method This study aimed investigate symmetry Si-St St-Si stroke compare their performance healthy controls. Thirteen 13 controls participated study. Participants were instructed perform 30-s chair stand...
Objective: Stand-to-sit task is an important daily function, but there a lack of research evidence on whether knee osteoarthritis (knee OA) affects the postural balance during task. This study aimed to compare individuals with OA and asymptomatic controls in identify kinematic lower extremity muscle activity characteristics stand-to-sit Methods: In total, 30 age-matched performed 30-s Chair Stand Test (30sCST) at self-selected speeds. Motion analysis data surface electromyography (sEMG) were...
Physical activities such as walking and climbing stairs are pervasive in human daily life. Individuals with scoliosis frequently encounter dysfunction their muscle recruitment. Multiple studies have corroborated the presence of individuals diagnosed scoliosis. However, there is currently a noteworthy research gap regarding exploration changes characteristics disparities from those observed without during everyday activities, specifically stair climbing. This study aims to examine unique...
Complete ground reaction forces (GRFs) are vital for biomechanical analysis. The GRFs currently measured by force plates. measurement of during stair walking is difficult due to the need instrumented staircases. We trained two bi-lateral long short-term memory (BiLSTM) neural networks estimate 3D ascent and descent using whole-body kinematics as input. dataset collected from eighty subjects, including healthy knee osteoarthritis individuals. also developed a post-processing algorithm remove...
Inter-joint coordination is an important factor affecting postural stability, and its variability increases after fatigue. This study aimed to investigate the pattern of lower limb joints during sit-to-stand (Si-St) stand-to-sit (St-Si) tasks in stroke patients explore influence duration on inter-joint coordination.Thirteen hemiplegia (five with left paretic eight right paretic) thirteen age-matched healthy subjects were recruited. The Si-St St-Si performed while each subject's joint...
Background contextTraditional 3D motion analysis typically considers the spine as a rigid entity. Nevertheless, previous single-joint models have proven inadequate in evaluating movement across different spinal segments patients with idiopathic scoliosis (IS). Scoliosis significantly impairs functions, especially during activities such ascending and descending stairs. There is lack of research on patterns stair specifically for IS.PurposeThis study aims to investigate trunk kinematics...
To evaluate the clinical efficacy of warm-needling moxibustion for knee osteoarthritis (KOA), and to explore its effects on isokinetic strength lower limb muscle.Fifty cases KOA were randomly divided into an observation group (25 cases) a control (21 cases), but 4 lost contact. The was treated with at Dubi (ST 35), Neixiyan (EX-LE 4), Xuehai (SP 10), Liangqiu 34), Yinlingquan 9), Yanglingquan (GB Weizhong (BL 40), Heyang 55) Fengshi 31) 40 min per treatment. first 6 treatments given once...
Objective: Individuals with knee osteoarthritis are at higher risk for falls during transitions between floor and stair walking due to their reduced lower extremity function. However, the adjust gait characteristics of subjects dealing have not been explored. We aimed investigate strategies in individuals compared age-matched without OA transition on stairs. Method: Gait 30 floor-to-stair stair-to-floor were accessed using a 3D motion capture system. Foot-tread clearance, angles joints trunk...
Background: Trigger point (TrP) acupuncture is commonly used to treat chronic non-specific low back pain (CNLBP). Evidence for the efficacy of most TrP modalities weak or lacking. Objective: To assess effect on pain, disability, gait and muscle activation in patients with CNLBP. Methods: From May 2019 February 2020, a randomised, single-blind clinical trial was carried out involving 33 participants CNLBP, divided into one two intervention groups control group ( n = 11 per group). The...
Stair ascent and descent require complex integration between sensory motor systems; individuals with knee osteoarthritis (KOA) have an elevated risk for falls fall injuries, which may be in part due to poor dynamic postural control during locomotion. Tai chi exercise has been shown reduce risks the ageing population is recommended as one of non-pharmocological therapies people KOA. However, neuromuscular mechanisms underlying benefits tai persons KOA are not clearly understood. Postural...
Upper-limb functional assessment is important for stroke treatment. The identification of sensitive kinematic metrics that best differentiate the impairment level upper-limb motor function can enhance this assessment. Therefore, research proposed a method to select which discriminate between patients and healthy subjects. A total 26 participants (10 subjects 16 patients) were recruited perform reaching movements. movement data was measured using Kinect v2. Thirty-two then extracted....
Introduction: With the global prevalence of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), an increasing number people are experiencing respiratory discomfort. Respiratory biomechanics can monitor breathing patterns and movements it is easier to prevent, diagnose, treat or rehabilitate. However, there still a lack knowledge structure in field biomechanics. help CiteSpace software, we aim researchers identify potential collaborators collaborating institutions, hotspots research frontiers Methods:...
In gait analysis, the accuracy of knee joint angles and moments is critical for clinical decision-making. The purpose this study was to determine efficacy two existing algorithms axis correction under pathological conditions. Gait data from 20 healthy participants patients with osteoarthritis (OA) were collected using a motion capture system. An algorithm based on Principal Component Analysis (PCA) functional joint-based (FJA) used define flexion axis. results show that PCA decreased...
To observe the kinetic change that reflects joint loading in different planes during stair climbing knee osteoarthritis (KOA) after electroacupuncture (EA) by three-dimensional motion analysis, so as to provide reference for its biomechanical mechanism treated with acupuncture.Forty KOA patients, accordance random number table, were assigned into an observation group and a control group, 20 cases each one finally 18 completed. Acupoints Neixiyan (EX-LE 4), Dubi (ST 35), Yanglingquan (GB 34),...
Poor balance is one of the risk factors for falls in patients with knee osteoarthritis (KOA), which related to symptoms. Electroacupuncture (EA) traditional Chinese conservative methods commonly used improve symptoms KOA.To assess whether EA increases dynamic during stair negotiation among KOA.A total 40 KOA were assigned two groups randomly (true electroacupuncture vs. mock electroacupuncture). Acupoints around selected true (TEA) group electrical stimulation (2 Hz). In (MEA) group, about 2...
Purpose This study aims to explore the dynamic balance of human beings and investigate relationship between functional structure as well connectivity. Through a comprehensive bibliometric visual analysis research literature from 1995 2022, we quantitatively display development brain connection. Our objective is present new trends frontiers in function through bibliometrics software, providing valuable insights for future this domain. Methods The on balance, connectivity 2022 was retrieved...
