There are several AD tools available, which all implement different strategies for the reverse mode of AD. The major strategies are primal value taping (implemented e.g. by ADOL-c) and Jacobi taping (implemented e.g. by adept and dco/c++). Especially for Jacobi taping, recent advances by using expression templates make this approach very attractive for large scale software. The current implemen...

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: Patellofemoral pain syndrome (PFPS) is the most common cause of anterior knee pain in adults. Patellar taping is used to correct patellar position and rehabilitate patients with PFPS. However, the effectiveness and clinical efficiency of this technique in the treatment of these patients are not fully determined. Therefore, this study aimed to evaluate the effects of kn...

This study aimed to examine the effects of kinesiology taping (KT) and different TRX suspension workouts on the amplitude of electromyographic (EMG) activity in the core muscles among people with chronic low back pain (LBP). Each participant (total n = 21) was exposed to two KT conditions: no taping and taping, while performing four TRX suspension exercises: (1) hamstring curl, (2) hip abductio...

proprioception has been found to have a relation to subjective knee function and patients with patellofemoral pain syndrome (pfps) seem to have larger deficits than asymptomatic individuals little is known about whether taping can restore defects in proprioception or by which mechanisms it can improve anterior knee pain. to determine the effect of patellar taping on knee joint proprioception a ...

[Purpose] The purpose of this study was to conduct a scientific analysis of the effectiveness of Kinesio taping at preventing injury and improving horse racing jockey' performance, by studying the effects on isokinetic muscular function of Kinesio taping applied to the knee joint muscle. [Subjects] Eight horse racing jockeys were selected for this study. [Methods] Measurement of isokinetic musc...

OBJECTIVES To investigate the effect of Kinesio Taping (KT) applied over the biceps brachii on maximal isokinetic elbow torque. DESIGN This study followed a single-blinded, placebo controlled, repeated measures design. METHODS Isokinetic eccentric and concentric elbow peak torques were evaluated without taping (NT), with KT or placebo taping (PT) in 20 healthy participants. Furthermore, all...

Taping has long been used by health professionals to provide mechanical support for the musculoskeletal system. However, there is insufficient evidence demonstrate effect of Dynamic® taping. The aim this study was investigate taping on vertical jump and medial longitudinal arch height in adolescent volleyball players with navicular drop. Material Methods: 23 female athletes participated (mean a...
