Lower limb muscle coactivation levels in healthy younger and older adults during functional dual-task gait
(Universidade Estadual Paulista (Unesp), Instituto de Biociências, 2013-01-01)
The purpose of this study was to investigate the influence of daily cognitive task on stiffness of old and young female adults during the gait. The study included 17 physically active younger and 18 older women, with low ...
Transient effects of stretching exercises on gait parameters of elderly women
(CHURCHILL LIVINGSTONE, 2009)
This study aimed to analyse the effects of a single stretching exercise session on a number of gait parameters ill elderly participants in all attempt to determine whether these exercises can influence the risk of fall. ...
PREDICTIVE FACTORS FOR GAIT IN FEMORAL TRANSTROCHANTERIC FRACTURES
(ATHA COMUNICACAO & EDITORA, 2009)
Objective: The objective of this study was to identify variables that could predict the quality of gait in patients with transtrochanteric femoral fractures after treatment. Materials and Methods: Hospitalized patients ...
Effect of triceps surae and quadriceps muscle fatigue on the mechanics of landing in stepping down in ongoing gait
(Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2014-06-01)
The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of muscle fatigue of triceps surae and quadriceps muscles in stepping down in ongoing gait. We expected that the subjects would compensate for muscle fatigue to prevent ...
Genome-wide association study: Understanding the genetic basis of the gait type in Brazilian Mangalarga Marchador horses, a preliminary study
(2020-01-01)
The ECA23:22999655C>A DMRT3 variant has been described as a causative region for the four-beat gait in horses, however it remains uncertain for the two distinct gait types observed in the Brazilian Mangalarga Marchador ...
Gait bradykinesia and hypometria decrease as arm swing frequency and amplitude increase
(2018-11-20)
People with Parkinson's disease (PD) have decreased arm swing movements during walking, which can be related to PD motor signs and symptoms. In this context, the aim of this study was to determine the effects of an increased ...
Walking, running, hopping: Analysis of gait variability and locomotor skills in Brasilichnium elusivum Leonardi, with inferences on trackmaker identification
(2017-01-01)
Synapsids were able to adopt different gaits, including half–bounding and bipedal skipping, since the Early Jurassic, as indicated by a large record of fossil footprints, found in hyper-arid erg–dominated paleonvironments ...
The Role of Proprioception in the Sagittal Setting of Anticipatory Postural Adjustments During Gait Initiation
(2015-12-01)
Purpose. Previous studies have studied the role of proprioception on the setting of anticipatory postural adjustments (APA) during gait initiation. However, these studies did not investigate the role of proprioception in ...
Evaluating the acute contributions of dopaminergic replacement to gait with obstacles in parkinson's disease
(2013-11-25)
The influence of dopaminergic replacement (DR) on gait in people with Parkinson's disease (PD) is well documented. However, little is known about the acute effects of dopamine on more complex locomotor tasks that require ...
