Stepping in Place While Voluntarily Turning Around Produces a Long-Lasting Posteffect Consisting in Inadvertent Turning While Stepping Eyes Closed
Training subjects to step in place on a rotating platform while maintaining a fixed body orientation in space produces a posteffect consisting in inadvertent turning around while stepping in place eyes closed (podokinetic after-rotation, PKAR). We tested the hypothesis that voluntary turning around while stepping in place also produces a posteffect similar to PKAR. Sixteen subjects performed 12...
متن کاملCurved Walking Rehabilitation with a Rotating Treadmill in Patients with Parkinson’s Disease: A Proof of Concept
Training subjects to step-in-place eyes open on a rotating platform while maintaining a fixed body orientation in space [podokinetic stimulation (PKS)] produces a posteffect consisting in inadvertent turning around while stepping-in-place eyes closed [podokinetic after-rotation (PKAR)]. Since the rationale for rehabilitation of curved walking in Parkinson's disease is not fully known, we tested...
متن کاملExergaming in Older Adults: Movement Characteristics While Playing Stepping Games
Despite frequent use of exergames in intervention studies to improve physical function in older adults, we lack knowledge about the movements performed during exergaming. This causes difficulties for interpreting results of intervention studies and drawing conclusions about the efficacy of exergames to exercise specific functions important for the elderly population. The aim of the current stud...
متن کاملEffect of Step Platform Height on Stepping Efficiency in Children
This study was conducted to determine if VO, of stepping in children is affected by altering the step platform height based on leg length. The effect of leg length on VO, and heart rate (HR) during stepping was examined in 19 children, ages 8-17, who stepped onto 5 different bench heights that corresponded to hip angles of 65", 73", 82", 90°, or 98". VO, and HR response to a work load of 8 m . ...
متن کاملAuxin signals--turning genes on and turning cells around.
The extremely wide spectrum of the plant processes that are influenced by auxin raises the question of how signals conveyed by a single molecule can trigger such a variety of responses. Although many aspects of auxin function remain elusive, others have become genetically tractable. The identification of crucial genes in auxin signal transduction and auxin transport in the past few years has le...
