This paper examines the perspectives of SMEs on Brexit and skill shortages using cross-sectional data 2,969 from a UK Government’s Small Business survey for 2016. The logistic regression with clustered standard errors is applied to analyse association between considering as major business obstacle probability identifying in their businesses. results show that firms shortage managerial skills/ex...

Neural drive to inspiratory pump muscles is increased under many pathological conditions. This study determined for the first time how neural drive is distributed to five different human inspiratory pump muscles during tidal breathing. The discharge of single motor units (n = 280) from five healthy subjects in the diaphragm, scalene, second parasternal intercostal, third dorsal external interco...

OBJECTIVE: We examined whether muscle response times and activation patterns in the lower extremity differed between men and women in response to a rotational knee perturbation while standing in a single-leg, weight-bearing stance. DESIGN AND SETTING: We used a lower extremity perturbation device to produce a sudden, forward, and either internal or external rotation moment of the trunk and femu...

Recruitment is a major activity of human resources management that decides the performance organization. One drawbacks selection candidate can be dependent on demographics, appearance, and cultural differences candidates. According to literature review analysis, blind recruitment linked only few studies, gap has been identified in knowledge areas. Thus, through this study, researcher reviewed c...

Despite the prevalence of shoulder injury in kayakers, limited published research examining associated upper limb kinematics and recruitment patterns exists. Altered muscle recruitment patterns on-ergometer vs. on-water kayaking were recently reported, however, mechanisms underlying changes remain to be elucidated. The current study assessed the effect of ergometer recoil tension on upper limb ...

The human orofacial system is richly endowed with low-threshold, slowly adapting mechanoreceptors that respond to self-generated movements and external loads. The functional linkage between these afferents and the recruitment of motor units in the lower face during the dynamics of speech is unknown. Mechanically evoked activity in the orbicularis oris muscles was studied in young human female a...

Purpose: The proper neuromuscular recruitment patterns of hip and knee muscles are essential for dynamic stabilization of the knee. According to the kinematic chain, weakness in the performance of one motor segment can affect other segments of motion. Thus, the aim of this study was to compare the isometric strength of selected muscles of lower extremities in the hyperpronated foot with t...
