Assessment of proprioception, muscle strength and endurance during dynamic isokinetic test in patients with breast cance...
Published in Clinical biomechanics (Bristol, Avon)
Breast cancer-related lymphedema is a common complication after breast cancer treatment.This study examined isokinetic proprioception, muscular strength, and endurance by comparing extremity with lymphedema and the extremity without lymphedema in women with breast cancer-related lymphedema. A total of 15 individuals aged between 35 and 70 years par...
Proprioceptive and olfactory deficits in individuals with Parkinson disease and mild cognitive impairment.
Published in Acta neurologica Belgica
Individuals with neurodegenerative diseases such as Parkinson disease (PD) and Alzheimer's (AD) disease often present with perceptual impairments at an early clinical stage. Therefore, early identification and quantification of these impairments could facilitate diagnosis and early intervention. This study aimed to compare proprioceptive and olfact...
Submaximal fatiguing eccentric contractions of knee flexors alter leg extrapersonal representation
This study assessed the immediate and prolonged effects of eccentric-induced fatigue on position sense, utilizing position-pointing tasks, which had not been previously implemented for this purpose. Fifteen healthy adults underwent a fatiguing eccentric protocol that entailed sets of unilateral submaximal contractions of knee flexor muscles until r...
Investigation of the relationship between trunk position sense and balance, functional mobility, fear of falling, and di...
Published in Irish journal of medical science
Parameters related to trunk control such as balance disorders, mobility problems, and falling are frequently observed in patients with Parkinson's disease (PD). However, to provide a stable foundation for movement, trunk stability requires appropriate adequate position sense. The aim of the study was to examine the relationship between trunk positi...
Knee joint repositioning error in different trunk positions among females with chronic nonspecific low back pain: A cros...
Published in Journal of bodywork and movement therapies
Proprioception is a self-perceived sense of position and movement of one's body and its deficits can lead to motor control problems such as delayed muscle reflexes. Previous studies have confirmed lumbar proprioception impairments among individuals with Low Back Pain (LBP), which can afflict the normal central sensory-motor control and hence increa...
A reassessment of the role of joint receptors in human position sense.
Published in Experimental brain research
In the past, the peripheral sense organs responsible for generating human position sense were thought to be the slowly adapting receptors in joints. More recently, our views have changed and the principal position sensor is now believed to be the muscle spindle. Joint receptors have been relegated to the lesser role of acting as limit detectors whe...
The use of machine learning and deep learning techniques to assess proprioceptive impairments of the upper limb after st...
Published in Journal of NeuroEngineering and Rehabilitation
Background Robots can generate rich kinematic datasets that have the potential to provide far more insight into impairments than standard clinical ordinal scales. Determining how to define the presence or absence of impairment in individuals using kinematic data, however, can be challenging. Machine learning techniques offer a potential solution to...
Effets aigus et prolongés de la fatigue neuromusculaire induite par la répétition de contractions sous-maximales sur l'a...
La kinesthésie, englobant les sens de la position et du mouvement, joue un rôle primordial dans le contrôle sensorimoteur. Toutefois, de nombreuses études ont démontré la présence d'altérations de la kinesthésie en état de fatigue neuromusculaire. Bien que les hypothèses récentes suggèrent des altérations au niveau du système nerveux central, l'ori...
Influence of kinesiophobia on pain intensity, disability, muscle endurance, and position sense in patients with chronic ...
Published in Trials
Background Patients with chronic low back pain (CLBP) frequently present with kinesiophobia. Though large body of evidence reported the impact of kinesiophobia in patients with CLBP, there are paucity of studies in associating kinesiophobia to muscle endurance and position sense in patients with CLBP. The primary aim of the study is to compare the ...
