Schrijvers, Josien C. van den Noort, Martin van der Esch, Joost Dekker, Jaap HarlaarAbstractBackgroundInstability of the knee joint during gait is frequently reported by patients with knee osteoarthritis or an anterior cruciate ligament rupture. The assessment of instability in clinical practice and clinical research studies mainly relies on self-reporting. Alternatively, parameters measured with gait analysis...

Publication date: Available online 20 March 2019Source: Gait & PostureAuthor(s): Caleigh Goode, David M. Cole, David A.E. BoltonAbstractBackgroundWhen automatic, yet unwanted action is quickly inhibited, short-lived suppression throughout the motor system ensues. This effect is referred to asglobal suppression. Although response inhibition is essential for behavioral flexibility, widespread motor suppression may delay action reprogramming. In reactive balance control, even fleeting suppression...

NewhamAbstractBackground Excessive pronation has been implicated in patellofemoral pain (PFP) aetiology and foot orthoses are commonly prescribed for PFP patients. Pronation can be assessed using foot posture tests, however, the utility of such tests depends on their association with foot and lower-limb kinematics.Research questions Do PFP participants compared...

Publication date: Available online 16 March 2019Source: Gait & PostureAuthor(s): B.C Muir, J.M. Haddad, R.E.A. van Emmerik, S. RietdykAbstractBackgroundAge-associated physiological changes result in modified gait, such as slower speed, for older adults. Identifying the onset of age-related gait changes will provide insight into the role of aging on locomotor control. It is expected that a more challenging gait task (obstacle crossing) puts more demands on physiological systems, and may reveal...

Publication date: Available online 15 March 2019Source: Gait & PostureAuthor(s): Sho Kunimune, Shuichi OkadaAbstractBackgroundObstacle crossing requires sufficient toe clearance for trip and fall prevention for which postural stability is a prerequisite. It is thought that the upper visual field plays an important role in the maintenance of postural stability, but its influence and age-dependence have not been investigated yet.Research question: What is the role of the visual fields in maintaining...

Publication date: Available online 15 March 2019Source: Gait & PostureAuthor(s): Colm Daly, Emer Lafferty, Marie Joyce, Ailish MaloneAbstractBackgroundReduced lumbo-pelvic postural control is a common feature of gait in children with Cerebral Palsy (CP). These features are commonly attributed to insufficiency of the hip musculature as well as underlying bony geometry. Exercises aimed at strengthening the hip muscles are frequently prescribed in children with Cerebral Palsy (CP). There is a lack...

It is currently unknown how body segments and posture change in the postpartum period. Therefore, this study was conducted to evaluate the longitudinal changes in anthropometry, center of mass, and standing posture postpartum.MethodsSeventeen...

Trip-specific training is a targeted training approach that has been shown to reduce falls in older adults and amputees by enhancing the compensatory stepping response required to prevent a fall. Still, individuals with stroke have unique deficits (e.g. spasticity) which draws into question if...
