Aim In this narrative review the potential and importance of handcycling are evaluated. Four
conceptual models form the framework for this review;(1) the International Classification of …

Systematically review observational studies concerning the question whether workers that
perform pushing/pulling activities have an increased risk for upper extremity symptoms as …

Objective. To assess the mechanical load on the glenohumeral joint and on shoulder
muscles during wheelchair propulsion at everyday intensities. Design. Model simulations …

The design, validation, and application of a three-dimensional musculoskeletal model of the
upper limb is presented here, for the study of joint, muscle, and ligament forces during …

Abstract The Delft Shoulder and Elbow Model (DSEM), a musculoskeletal model of the
shoulder and elbow has been extensively developed since its introduction in 1994 …

The objective of this study was to quantify the mechanical load on the low back and
shoulders during pushing and pulling in combination with three task constraints: the use of …

In most industries, musculoskeletal injuries are the most common work-related reason for
employee absences. These injuries are often caused by static postures or repetitive …

Objective To investigate whether a high‐intensity exercise program accelerates the rate of
radiologic damage of the large joints in predefined subgroups of patients with rheumatoid …

The goal of this study was to compare the effects of the task variables block mass, working
height and one-vs. two-handed block handling on low back and shoulder loading during …

We used an instrumented wheelchair ergometer and 3D motion analysis system to collect
joint kinematic and temporal data, as well as hand rim and joint kinetics, in 47 manual …
