Gait asymmetries are commonly observed in neurological populations and linked to
decreased gait velocity, balance decrements, increased fall risk, and heightened metabolic …

Quantitative assessment of motor function is increasingly applied in fall risk stratification,
diagnosis, and disease monitoring of neuro-geriatric disorders of balance and gait. Its broad …

Traumatic injuries, vascular deficiencies, or complications from diabetes can lead to
amputation of the lower extremities of an individual. Depending on the severity, amputation …

The goal of this study is to introduce and to motivate the use of new quantitative methods to
improve our understanding of mechanisms that contribute to the control of dynamic balance …

People rarely walk in straight lines. Instead, we make frequent turns or other maneuvers.
Spatiotemporal parameters fundamentally characterize gait. For straight walking, these …

Weight-bearing is a common behavior, whereas a load impact on human gait symmetry is
seldom considered. This study aims to propose and verify a gait symmetry detection model …

Background Restoring pre-injury normal gait following Anterior Cruciate Ligament
Reconstruction (ACLR) is a critical challenge. The purpose of this study was to compare …

Walking is one of the most common daily movements of the human body. Therefore,
quantitative evaluation of human walking has been commonly used to assist doctors in …

Symmetry is one of the factors analysed in normal and pathological gaits. Backward gait is
an area of interest to scientists, in terms of its physiology and therapeutic possibilities. This …

The use of crutches is a common method of assisting people during recovery from
musculoskeletal injuries in the lower limbs. There are several different ways to walk with …
