Alongside the growth of cycling has been a corresponding increase in proportion female-identifying cyclists on roads and trails. Assumptions about anatomic differences have historically inspired specific equipment design for women cyclists, while most research included only male-identifying participants. More recently, industry shifted towards more gender-inclusive design, line with heterogeneity seen any gender identity. There into biomechanical metabolic female athletes, which can impact...
Objective: To analyze the use of Vulnerable Elders Survey 13 (VES-13) and 20-item Clinical-Functional Vulnerability Index (IVCF-20) instruments in identifying vulnerable elderly individuals or those at risk vulnerability. Theoretical Framework: The index vulnerability is approximately 30%, justifying need for research to verify used by health professionals their identification. Method: Quantitative approach through a descriptive study. Data collection was carried out questionnaire...
This study analyses forearm muscle contractions that occur during movements of individual fingers. An amplitude threshold is implemented on the multiplied backwards difference (MOBD) signal to determine when a contraction occurs, and followed by windowed variance MOBD which finger contracted. The purpose create low-cost, computationally efficient method specific from forearm. was able differentiate ring other fingers, in comparison had approximately ten times higher.
