Abstract Background The Center of mass (CoM) analysis reveals important aspects of gait
dynamic stability of stroke patients, but the variety of methods and measures represents a …

To step over obstacles of varying heights, two distinct ongoing streams of activities—visual
exploration of the environment and gait adjustment—were required to occur concurrently …

Common assessment tools for determining therapeutic success in rehabilitation typically
focus on task–based outcomes. Task–based outcomes provide some understanding of the …

The biomechanical mechanism of lateral trunk lean gait employed to reduce external knee
adduction moment (KAM) for knee osteoarthritis (OA) patients is not well known. This …

It is crucial to understand age-related degenerative processes that affect dynamic postural
control and ultimately increase the risk of falling for older adults. Mediolateral stability during …

Although fatigue is a central issue in endurance sports little is known about the effects of
fatigue on coordination. The uncontrolled manifold (UCM) approach has been widely used …

The uncontrolled manifold (UCM) analysis quantifies the extent to which co-variation among
a set of variables facilitates consistent performance by partitioning variance in those …

To prevent falls, control of the swing foot during walking is crucial. Recently, some studies
demonstrated that the coordinated movement of lower limbs by kinematic synergy is …

Community ambulation requires gait adaptations to navigate environmental obstacles. It is
well known that while crossing obstacles, variables quantifying the gait pattern are …

This study investigated the covariate structure of each segmental angle that stabilize the
center of mass (COM) in the mediolateral and vertical directions in response to knee joint …
