BACKGROUND A prime concern of the gait analysis in a heterogeneous group of dogs is the potential influence of factors such as individual body size, body mass, type of gait, and velocity. Thus, this study aimed to evaluate in a heterogeneous group of dogs a possible correlation of the stride frequency with kinetic and temporospatial variables, as well as the percentage of body weight distributi...

Presented study gives findings of temporal-spatial kinematic gait analysis in 12 male adults, war trauma transtibial (TT) amputees fitted with prosthesis compared to 12 able-bodied persons. Results disclose asymmetries between the amputated, prosthetic and healthy legs of amputees, as well as between TT amputees and non-disabled persons. Amputees in comparison with able-bodied persons, generall...

Abstract Lyapunov exponent is a promising parameter to ascertain the stability of human gait. In this work, we use time-series model based on second-order delay-system with inertial measurement units placed foot and wrist. Stability analyzed in localized sense, computed temporal region between two heel-strike points, which are determined using peak-detection algorithm. We have attempted show co...

BACKGROUND Anti-dementia drugs may improve gait performance. No comparison between acetylcholinesterase inhibitors (CEIs) and memantine-related changes in gait variability has been reported. The objectives of this study were to 1) quantify and compare the mean values and coefficients of variation (CoV) of stride time in demented patients with Alzheimer's disease and related disorders (ADRD) bef...

The aim of this study was to investigate the motor ability of forelimb according to on- or off-riding during cadences (walk and trot) of horse. Horses and rider selected as subject consisted of total 37 heads of Jeju native horse and 1 female rider. The variables analyzed composed of 1 stride length, 1 step length, elapsed time of stance, elapsed time of swing, elapsed time of 1 step, and forwa...
