Muscle strength in diabetics compared to non-diabetic elderly subjects: A cross sectional and case-control study
Background: With the growing population of the elderly, the prevalence of disabilities and chronic diseases will also likely increase. Muscle weakness leads to low amounts of physical activity in elderly diabetic patients and makes them susceptible to falls. In this study, we aimed to compare the muscle strength between diabetic and non-diabetic elderly individuals. Methods: The present study ...
متن کاملPredictors of Upper-Extremity Physical Function in Older Adults
Background: Little is known about the influence of habitual participation in physical exercise and diet on upper-extremity physical function in older adults. To assess the relationship of general physical exercise and diet to upper-extremity physical function and pain intensity in older adults. Methods: A cohort of 111 patients 50 or older completed a sociodemographic survey, the Rapid Asse...
متن کاملControl and system identification for the Berkeley lower extremity exoskeleton (BLEEX)
The Berkeley lower extremity exoskeleton (BLEEX) is an autonomous robotic device whose function is to increase the strength and endurance of a human pilot. In order to achieve an exoskeleton controller which reacts compliantly to external forces, an accurate model of the dynamics of the system is required. In this report, a series of system identification experiments was designed and carried ou...
متن کاملThe Berkeley Lower Extremity Exoskeleton Project
In October 2003, the first functional load-bearing and energetically autonomous exoskeleton was demonstrated at Berkeley, walking at the average speed of two miles per hour while carrying 75 pounds of load. DARPA funded the Berkeley Lower Extremity Exoskeleton (BLEEX) project in 2000 at Berkeley. In general, four fundamental technologies were tackled during the course of this project. These fou...
متن کاملEffects of Upper Extremity Coordination Exercises Based on Fatigue Prediction on Upper Extremity Sensory-motor Functions in Chronic Stroke Survivors
Objectives: This study aimed to investigate the effect of upper extremity coordination exercises based on fatigue prediction on fine and gross manual dexterity, upper limb motor function, shoulder and elbow proprioception, occupational performance, and activities of daily living in chronic stroke survivors. Methods: In this pilot double-blind randomized clinical trial, 24 chronic strokes were ...
