Variation in the human Achilles tendon moment arm during walking.
The Achilles tendon (AT) moment arm is an important determinant of ankle moment and power generation during locomotion. Load and depth-dependent variations in the AT moment arm are generally not considered, but may be relevant given the complex triceps surae architecture. We coupled motion analysis and ultrasound imaging to characterize AT moment arms during walking in 10 subjects. Muscle loadi...
متن کاملPatellofemoral Joint and Achilles Tendon Loads During Overground and Treadmill Running.
Study Design Level 4, controlled laboratory study. Background Little is known regarding how the potential differences between treadmill and overground running may affect patellofemoral joint and Achilles tendon loading characteristics. Objectives To compare measures of loading of the patellofemoral joint and Achilles tendon across treadmill and overground running in healthy, uninjured runners. ...
متن کاملUphill treadmill running does not induce histopathological changes in the rat Achilles tendon
BACKGROUND The purpose of this study was to investigate whether uphill treadmill running in rats created histopathological changes within the Achilles tendon consistent with Achilles tendinosis in humans. METHODS Twenty-six mature rats selectively bred for high-capacity running were divided into run and cage control groups. Run group rats ran on a treadmill at a 15° incline for a maximum dura...
متن کاملModeling the Aging Achilles Tendon: Inter-fascicle Adhesions and Tendon Compliance Affect Plantarflexor Behavior during Walking
The Achilles tendon (AT) consists of distinct fascicle bundles arising from the gastrocnemius and soleus muscles that intertwine and twist before inserting onto the calcaneus [1]. Current musculoskeletal models simplify this architecture by representing the gastrocnemius and soleus as independent muscle-tendon actuators [2], which may be an appropriate assumption if the fascicles freely slide r...
متن کاملComparison of Ground Reaction Force Components during Running with Running Shoes and Control Shoes in Individuals with Genu Varum
Introduction: Running poses an essential role in maintaining cardiovascular health. However, it has been demonstrated that 2.5 to 38 injuries per 1,000 hours of running can occur. The purpose of this study was to investigate ground reaction forces components during running with running shoes compared to control shoes in individuals with genu varum. Methods: This study was laboratory and semi-e...
