Lower limb kinematic and kinetic differences between transtibial amputee fallers and non-fallers (2010)
Journal Article
Vanicek, N., Strike, S. C., McNaughton, L., & Polman, R. (2010). Lower limb kinematic and kinetic differences between transtibial amputee fallers and non-fallers. Prosthetics and orthotics international, 34(4), 399-410. https://doi.org/10.3109/03093646.2010.480964

Stair walking relies on concentric contraction of the ankle plantarflexor and knee extensor muscles, which are either absent or weakened in transtibial amputees. As a result the risk of falling is increased in this population. The aim of this study w...

Computerized dynamic posturography in the objective assessment of balance in patients with intermittent claudication. Annals of vascular surgery, 25(2), 182-190. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.avsg.2010.07.021

One-third of all elderly patients fall each year and impaired balance has been recognized as a specific risk factor. Intermittent claudication is common among the elderly population, affecting approximately 5% of the population over the age of 50. Th...

Aims Mechanisms of exercise limitation in patients with chronic heart failure (CHF) are incompletely understood. During matched submaximal, fixed-rate exercise, oxygen uptake is similar in patients and healthy controls. However, the importance of ca...
