Biomechanics Age Related Changes in Balance and Gait ARIZONA STATE UNIVERSITY Narayanan KrishnamurthiJames Abbas BalasubramanianShruthiGait and balance disorders are the second leading cause of falls in the elderly. Investigating the changes in static and dynamic balance due to aging may provide a better...
Furthermore, it might be expected that less sensitive vestibular perception may have negative implications for behaviors that are informed by self-motion perception, such as standing balance. Yet, few studies16,18,19have examined the extent to which age-related changes in balance and postural contro...
In addition to AD, FoxO has been implicated in other neurodegenerative diseases like Parkinson’s disease (PD) and Huntington’s disease (HD). PD affects predominately dopaminergic neurons in the substantia nigra, and its symptoms include tremor, bradykinesia, limb rigidity and balance problems. Dur...
Some people believe the best way to deal with the problem related to traffic and transportation is to encourage people to live in cities rather than in suburbs and the countryside. To what extent do you agree or disagree? Give reasons for your answer and include any relevant examples from you...
Aging appears to present particular problems for lateral balance stability related to falls. Protective stepping is a common strategy for maintaining balance that may be impaired with aging due to changes in neuromusculoskeletal factors. This study assessed the response patterns, kinematics, and single ...
Children’s physical fitness development and related moderating effects of age and sex are well documented, especially boys’ and girls’ divergence during puberty. The situation might be different during prepuberty. As girls mature approximately two yea
For older people, a high-quality protein is one that has a high likelihood of promoting healthy aging or improving age-related problems and diseases. Protein quality was traditionally defined by amino acid composition, as measured by an essential amino acid score or by the ratio of essential to...
Age related intrinsic limitations in preventing a trip and regaining balance after a trip 来自 国家科技图书文献中心 喜欢 0 阅读量: 40 作者:JHV Die?N,M Pijnappels,MF Bobbert 摘要: This paper reviews the literature to determine directions for prevention of falls among the elderly by establishing...
In addition to gait speed and gait speed related parameters like stride length or stride time, a variety of measures can be derived from these accelerometer signals, that characterize the dynamics of gait through metrics such as, regularity, synchronization, variability, local stability, predictability...
Paternal aging was also suggested to be related to a progressive decrease in sperm quality, subfertility, and infertility that were correlated with problems in offspring17, such as neurocognitive disorders schizophrenia18, autism19 and bipolar disorders20, as well as chromosomal errors21, decreased ...
