Biomechanical comparison of frontal plane knee joint moment arms during normal and Tai Chi walking
[Purpose] Medial knee osteoarthritis, a degenerative joint disease, affects adults. The external knee adduction moment, a surrogate knee-loading measure, has clinical implications for knee osteoarthritis patients. Tai Chi is a promising intervention for pain alleviation in knee osteoarthritis; however, the characteristics of external knee adduction moment during Tai Chi have not been establishe...
متن کاملKnee Osteoarthritis Results in Asymmetric Joint Moment Distribution during Gait
The prevalence and adverse effects of knee osteoarthritis (OA) are well documented [1]. It has been shown that individuals with knee OA exhibit abnormal kinetic and kinematic gait patterns [2]. While individual joint moments at the hip, knee, and ankle have often been examined during gait, few studies have investigated the intersegmental coordination and distribution of lower extremity joint mo...
متن کاملGround contact characteristics of Tai Chi gait.
BACKGROUND To date, no direct measurement has been done that quantitatively characterizes the foot-ground contact during Tai Chi Chuan movements. The goal of this study was to quantify the biomechanical characteristics of foot-ground contact during a Tai Chi gait (TCG), one of the basic but common Tai Chi Chuan movements. METHODS The ground reaction force profiles, center of pressure (COP) an...
متن کاملthe effect of e-64 on the developmental competence of sheep cocs during in vitro maturation
in the present study, the effect of e-64 at different concentrations (0.5, 1, 5 and 10 µm) added to (1) the ivm medium on oocyte nuclear maturation and developmental competence of ovine oocytes, and (2) to the ivc medium on embryonic development of ovine embryos were investigated.
Patellar tendinopathy alters the distribution of lower extremity net joint moments during hopping.
The purpose of the current investigation was to test the hypothesis that subjects with patellar tendinopathy would demonstrate altered sagittal plane joint moment contributions during hopping tasks. Fourteen subjects (7 patellar tendinopathy, 7 controls) participated. Sagittal net joint moments of the lower extremity, total support moment, and joint contributions to the total support moment wer...
