Purpose: Sub-acromial impingement syndrome [SIS] is one of the most common causes of shoulder pain, which affects shoulder joint proprioception. Closed kinetic chain [CKC] exercises with a Sling are more effective and safer than open kinetic chain [OKC] exercises. This study aimed to compare the efficiency of OKC and Sling exercises [TRX] on shoulder sense position joints in overhead athletes w...

In this paper standing balance control of a biped with toe-joint is presented. The model consists of an inverted pendulum as the upper body and the foot contains toe-joint. The biped is actuated by two torques at ankle-joint and toe-joint to regulate the upper body in upright position. To model the interaction between foot and the ground, configuration constraints are defined and utilized. To s...

Purpose: Everything that impairs joint proprioception system can harm joints. It has been stated that stretching exercises can change properties of the proprioceptive receptors and as a result changes the sensibility of the joints proprioception. Due to fact that static stretching has greater use between athletes, it is necessary to give useful information about the safety of these stretch...

a number of studies have investigated the effect of age, trauma, disease and fatigue on cervical joint position sense. however, there is an absence in data regarding the role of posture on proprioception. the aim of the current study was to investigate the effect of forward head posture (fhp) on cervical joint position sense. twenty forward head posture volunteers (14 women, 6 men), with the me...

background : joint proprioception plays an important role in limb movement and awareness of position sense. diabetes has a lot of complications such as lossof sensoryfunction, which canleadtoimpaired balance, thus the aim of this study to evaluated joint proprioception and balance in diabetic patients. methods: twenty type ii diabetic patients and20healthy controls participated in this case-con...

this paper was aimed to report the 3d finite element analysis simulation of laser welding process of ti6al4v 1.7 mm sheets in butt joint in order to predict the temperature distribution, hardness, and weld geometry. the butt-joint welds were made using co2 laser with the maximum power of 2.2 kw in the continuous wave mode. a part of the experimental work was carried out to verify the weld geome...

Proprioception is essential for joint function and through which individual can detect body parts movement in space. Aim of present study is to investigate effect of balance training on unstable platform with tilting, translation and combined motion on knee joint position sense in active young males. 39 healthy active male divided in to three training and control (n=9) groups. Training on unsta...

BACKGROUND Joint lesions occur widespread in the Danish sow population and they are the most frequent cause for euthanasia. Clinically, it is generally impossible to differentiate between various types of non-inflammatory joint lesions. Consequently, it is often necessary to perform a post mortem examination in order to diagnose these lesions. A study was performed in order to examine the relat...
