This paper discusses the inertia tensors of tennis rackets and their influence on the elbow swing torques in a forehand motion, the loadings transmitted to the elbow from central and eccentric impacts, and the racket acceleration responses from central and eccentric impacts. Inertia tensors of various rackets with similar mass and mass center location were determined by an inertia pendulum and ...

We proposed and implemented a system based on fuzzy logic Toolbox. designed such to measure the strength of upper limb elbow tennis player. have tried predict injuries movements for sports player, For that we used Triangle Trapezoidal membership function better prediction strength. selected Two input parameters Elbow Flexion Angle Torque in development using toolbox Matlab. considered these two...

Introduction Acupuncture is increasingly popular with the public, and more general practitioners (GPs) are using acupuncture as another therapeutic option. The BMA report on acupuncture highlights its effectiveness in certain conditions and relative safety compared to the widespread use of NSAIDs, which are responsible for over 2000 deaths a year from gastrointestinal bleeds. The report comment...

Lateral inhibition, the inhibition of neurons by other neurons at the same level, exists at several levels of the visual system. Implications of lateral inhibition for sensory coding and perception have been investigated with a mathematical model that accounts for many properties of metacontrast masking and brief storage of sensory information. Here that model simulates object substitution mask...

PURPOSE To produce an internationally valid tool to assess skill in performing lateral tarsal strip surgery. METHODS A panel of 7 content experts adapted a previously published tool for assessing lateral tarsal strip surgery by using a modified Dreyfus scale of skill acquisition and providing behavioral descriptors for each level of skill in each category. The tools were then reviewed by 11 i...

BACKGROUND Postural balance is vital for safely carrying out many daily activities, such as locomotion. The purpose of this study was to determine how changes in normal standing (NS) and standing with toe-extension (SWT) impact postural control during quiet standing. Furthermore, the research aimed to examine the extent to which the effect of these factors differed between genders. METHODOLOG...

AIM To compare the apical seal of lateral condensation technique, thermafil and one-step by using this model. MATERIALS AND METHODS A two-chamber bacterial microleakage model using E. faecalis as microbial marker was used for evaluation of the leakage. Bacterial penetration was monitored over a 60-day period. Leakage was recorded when turbidity was observed in the lower chamber. RESULTS Aft...

We evaluated the outcome of partial lateral meniscectomy of 31 knees in 29 patients whose knees were otherwise normal. The mean follow-up was 10.3 years. According to the Lysholm score, 14 knees were rated as excellent, four as good, five as fair and eight as poor, with a mean score of 80.5 points. Radiologically, only one lateral compartment was classified as grade 0, eight as grade 1, nine as...

Lateral epicondylitis (Tennis Elbow) is the most frequent type of myotendinosis and can be responsible for substantial pain and loss of function of the affected limb. Muscular biomechanics characteristics and equipment are important in preventing the conditions. This article present on overview of the current knowledge on lateral Epicondylitis and focuses on Etiology, Diagnosis and treatment st...
