Instrumental platform for the static alignment of lower limb prostheses
(2020-05-03)
The quality of the alignment and adjustment of lower limb prostheses is fundamental in the rehabilitation process, mainly because it contributes to preventing the prostheses from being abandoned. Prosthesis alignment is ...
Postnatal ontogeny of limb proportions and functional indices in the subterranean rodent Ctenomys talarum (Rodentia: Ctenomyidae)
(Wiley-liss, Div John Wiley & Sons Inc, 2014-05)
Burrow construction in the subterranean Ctenomys talarum (Rodentia: Ctenomyidae) primarily occurs by scratch-digging. In this study, we compared the limbs of an ontogenetic series of C. talarum to identify variation in ...
Assessing the SNR influence in the estimation of the mean frequency of lower limbs sEMG signals
(2018)
The mean frequency of the power spectrum (MNF) is commonly used to describe the frequency content of an electromyographic (EMG) signal. The objective of this study is to determine the minimum/desirable signal to noise ratio ...
Neuropathic pain and prognosis of a dog submitted to limb amputation after diagnosis of soft tissue sarcoma - case report
(Arquivo Brasileiro Medicina Veterinaria Zootecnia, 2019-07-01)
Neuropathic pain occurs when there is a lesion or a dysfunction of the nervous system. Humans and veterinary patients may develop neuropathic pain, but in veterinary it is not often reported probably because of its mistaken ...
Avoiding product abandonment through user centered design: A case study involving the development of a 3d printed customized upper limb prosthesis
(2020-01-01)
This study reports on experiences with a user centered design approach for the development of a customized mechanical transradial prosthesis for a patient who were unable to adapt to a standard prosthesis. The development ...
Early influence of auditory stimuli on upper-limb movements in young human infants: an overview
(Frontiers Research Foundation, 2015)
Changes in postnatal skeletal muscle development induced by alternative immobilization model in female rat
(SPRINGER, 2009)
The objective of this study was to adapt a model of hind limb immobilization to newly weaned female rats and to determine the morphology of shortened soleus and plantaris muscles. Female Wistar rats were divided into three ...
Limb-sparing surgery using the new ITC spanish porous titanium endoprosthesis in a dog with distal radius osteosarcoma
(WVOC-ESVOT, 2018)
Osteosarcoma (OSA) is the most common bone tumour in Dogs and in
giant breeds it’s commonly located in distal radius. Treatment includes:
surgery (limb amputation or limb-sparing surgery), radiotherapy and
chemotherapy. ...
Muscle fatigue does not change the effects on lower limbs strength caused by aging and Parkinson’s disease
(2018-01-01)
The aim of this study was to determine the impact of aging and Parkinson’s disease (PD) on lower limb muscle strength before and after muscle fatigue. One hundred thirty-five individuals were distributed over seven groups ...
Asynchrony and Hyperinflation in Patients With Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease During Two Types of Upper Limbs Exercise
(Ediciones Doyma S A, 2013-06-01)
Introduction: Occurrence of dynamic hyperinflation during upper-limbs exercises in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) patients it is not well established. We hypothesized that dynamic hyperinflation and ...
