Age-related changes in gait adaptability in response to unpredictable obstacles and stepping targets
(2016-05-01)
Background: A large proportion of falls in older people occur when walking. Limitations in gait adaptability might contribute to tripping; a frequently reported cause of falls in this group. Objective: To evaluate age-related ...
Volatile and odoriferous compounds changes during frozen concentrated orange juice processing
(2015-11-01)
Sixty-two volatile compounds were identified in orange juice from frozen concentrated orange juice (FCOJ) processing steps using HSSPME-GC-MS in combination with GC-OSME. Twenty-four compounds were perceived by OSME in the ...
Experimental study of the development flow region on stepped chutes
(2006)
The development flow region of stepped chutes was studied experimentally. Three configuration of chute bed slopes 3.5H:1V, 5H:1V, and 10H:1V were used to study the flow characteristics. Each model had five horizontal steps ...
The variability of the steps preceding obstacle avoidance (approach phase) is dependent on the height of the obstacle in people with Parkinson’s disease
(2017-09-01)
Gait variability may serve as a sensitive and clinically relevant parameter to quantify adjustments in walking and the changes with aging and neurological disease. Variability of steps preceding obstacle avoidance (approach ...
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 ...
Streamflow variability and its relationship with climate indices in western rivers of Argentina
(Iahs Press, 2019-03)
The objective of this study was to examine the streamflow variability of Argentinean Andean basins (22°–52°S). Trends and step changes of seven hydrological variables were analysed. In addition, relationships between the ...
Auditory Cueing for Gait Impairment in Persons With Parkinson Disease: A Pilot Study of Changes in Response With Disease Progression
(2019-01-01)
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Gait impairments in persons with Parkinson disease (PD) are difficult to manage. Auditory cueing has been shown to be an effective therapy. However, the optimal time to introduce cues with respect ...
Efeito de 12 semanas de treinamento de dança aeróbia e step sobre a aptidão funcional de idosas
(Universidade Tecnológica Federal do ParanáCuritibaDepartamento de Educação Física, 2013-04-04)
Aging is a process that causes changes and wears out some of the functional systems of the body. These changes are irreversible and progressive. Individuals that show an active adulthood and old age can minimize the loss ...
Step length synergy while crossing obstacles is weaker in patients with Parkinson's disease
(2021-02-01)
Background: Impaired movement stability is a common symptom of Parkinson's disease (PD) that leads to falls and mishandled objects. Decline in synergistic stabilization of movement in PD patients has been observed in manual ...
Stent-Induced Vascular Remodeling in Two-Step Stent-Assisted Coiling Treatment of Brain Aneurysms: A Closer Look into the Hemodynamic Changes during the Stent Healing Period
(2021-03-01)
Stenting has become an important adjunctive tool for assisting coil embolization in complex-shaped intracranial aneurysms. However, as a secondary effect, stent deployment has been related to both immediate and delayed ...
