Transcutaneous electromyography (tc-EMG) has been used to measure the electrical activity
of respiratory muscles during inspiration in various studies. Processing the raw tc-EMG …

The preferential use of one leg over another in performing lower-limb motor tasks (ie, leg
dominance) is considered to be one of the internal risk factors for sports-related lower-limb …

Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) is one of the most common chronic
conditions. The current assessment of COPD requires a maximal maneuver during a …

The current gold standard assessment of human inspiratory muscle function involves using
invasive measures of transdiaphragmatic pressure (Pdi) or crural diaphragm …

Sample entropy (SaEn), calculated for center of pressure (COP) trajectories, is often distinct
for compromised postural control, eg, in Parkinson, stroke, or concussion patients, but the …

The relationship between the robustness of HRV derived by linear and nonlinear methods to
the required minimum data lengths has yet to be well understood. The normal …

Postural control research suggests a non-linear, n-shaped relationship between dual-
tasking and postural stability. Nevertheless, the extent of this relationship remains unclear …

The use of wearable devices in clinical routines could reduce healthcare costs and improve
the quality of assessment in patients with chronic respiratory diseases. The purpose of this …

Balance control is essential for postural adjustment in physical activities. This study
investigates the behavior of human postural control and the coordination and adaptation …

The introduction of exoskeletons in industry has focused on improving worker safety.
Exoskeletons have the objective of decreasing the risk of injury or fatigue when performing …
