© 2018 Elsev subjects, matched in age and adopting a similar body-weight distribution, were also included. Contribution indices quantifying the respective involvement of hip and ankle mechanisms in the production of the CPRes displacements were then computed [1]. Results.– Along the AP axis, compared to healthy subjects (0.96 + 0.03 a.u.), the contribution indices are decreased in hemiparetic p...

Background: The human shoulder is one of the most mobile joints body but it has less stability as compared to hip joint which also a ball and socket joint. Aim: To measure average supraspinatus tendon thickness in young adults, compare between genders by using musculoskeletal ultrasound. Study design: Cross sectional study. Methodology: A total 128 healthy adults were screened for pathology Apl...

BACKGROUND Instability of the hip joint is a source of great discomfort to the patient due to pain, limp and leg-length discrepancy. Pelvic support osteotomy with Ilizarov hip reconstruction, along with its various modifications, has emerged as a standard treatment modality for this difficult problem. We present a series of patients with unstable hips treated with a modification of the monolate...

OBJECTIVE The purpose of this work was to analyze the relationship between intensity and duration of physical activity and composite indices of femoral neck strength and bone-mineral content of the femoral neck, lumbar spine, and total body. METHODS Physical activity was assessed by accelerometry in 143 girls and 150 boys (mean age: 9.7 years). Measurement of bone-mineral content, femoral nec...

This manuscript investigates a dynamical system in which $ 2N primary particles of equal masses move space under Newton's law gravitation forming the vertices antiprisms while particle negligible mass moves along common axis symmetry antiprisms. n $-body problem that we call restricted hip-hop (2N + 1) is an extension generalized Sitnikov studied [17] for primaries remain plane. work also relie...

INTRODUCTION To determine time spent at different physical activity intensities, accelerometers need calibration. The aim of this study was to develop and cross-validate intensity thresholds for the Actigraph GT3X+ accelerometer for wrist and hip placement in four-year-old children. METHODS In total 30 children (49 months, SD 3.7) were recruited from five preschools in Stockholm. Equipped wit...

background the iran-iraq war (1980–1988) was one of the longest wars of the 20th century. few studies are available in the current literature that evaluates the long-term results of proximal lower-extremity war-related amputations. objectives the purpose of the present cross-sectional study was to evaluate the current health-related quality of life and clinical musculoskeletal functions of iran...

introduction arthrogryposis multiplex congenita (amc) with incidence of 1 in 3000 of births is characterized by multiple rigid joint and soft-tissue contractures. case presentation we present a case of amc with severe soft tissue and joints contractures, especially joints of lower limb and elbows, bilateral complete dislocation of hips (cdh) and knees (cdk) (type iii), bilateral elbow joint dis...
