StairsMuscle strengthVertical ground reaction forceBACKGROUND :Little is known about the relationship between vertical ground reaction force (vGRF) and muscle strength while climbing stairs after total hip arthroplasty (THA). METHODS :We investigated the relationship between muscle strength and vGRF ...
Patients after TKA reduce the demand on the operated knee during a stepping task.Compensations include increased effort of contralateral knee and ipsilateral hip.Stronger quadriceps strength is related to faster stair climbing after TKA.Stronger knee extensor muscles may be needed for more sagittal plane...
Knee pain during SCT was evaluated after the 11-SCT by using the VAS (0–100 mm). Each participant was asked the following “Please mark on where you think the level of pain you experienced during stair climbing.” The participants recorded their level of knee pain by drawing a vertica...
About a block away, we entered a sketchy building and went down some dark stairs that led into a steak restaurant. Standing behind a bar was a guy who was a dead ringer for Jaws (Richard Kiel), the 7-foot 2-inch henchman from the James Bond movies who could bite through metal. “Me...
Hip osteoarthritis: influence of work with heavy lifting, climbing stairs or ladders, or combining kneeling/squatting with heavy lifting The aim of the study was to evaluate the evidence for an association between hip osteoarthritis (OA) and physical work demands. Systematic searches were ma... ...

However, the calculation of knee flexion angle using hip, knee, and ankle joint position has a risk of significant error because the depth data around ankle joint position has often noises as feet are always near stairs and are difficult to extract by the depth sensor. Thus, we hypothesized ...
