A térdkalács instabilitása viszonylag gyakran előforduló kórkép, amely általában már gyermekkorban, illetve fiatal felnőttkorban diagnosztizálásra kerül. megfelelő helyzetéért csontos és lágyrész képletek egyaránt felelősek. Az elsődleges medialis stabilizátor a patellofemoralis szalag. instabilitás kezelésére operatív ellátás esetén számos technika ismert, valamint műtétek térd extensor appará...

The aim of this study was to observe changes in the kinematics and muscle activities when barefoot running was initially adopted by six habitually shod, recreational rearfoot striking runners. Participants ran on a treadmill shod for 5 min, completed 3 × 10-min intervals of barefoot running and then completed a final minute of shod running at a self-selected pace. Dependent variables (speed, jo...

STUDY DESIGN A single-case study design. OBJECTIVES To examine the effect of electrical stimulation of the vastus medialis muscle on stiffness, pain and function for a patient with delayed functional progress following a lateral patellar retinacular release. BACKGROUND Five months after an arthroscopic lateral patellar retinacular release, the patient, although highly motivated, had made li...

This study compares muscle fiber conduction velocities during isometric maximal voluntary contraction in different degrees of diabetic neuropathy classified by a fuzzy expert model. Sixty-seven diabetic patients of both sexes were classified by a fuzzy expert system in four groups according to the neuropathy degree: absent, mild, moderate and severe. Average muscle fiber conduction velocities o...

Synchronization of motor unit activity was investigated during treadmill walking (speed: 3-4 km/h) in 25 healthy human subjects. Recordings were made by pairs of wire electrodes inserted into the tibialis anterior (TA) muscle and by pairs of surface electrodes placed over this muscle and a number of other lower limb muscles (soleus, gastrocnemius lateralis, gastrocnemius medialis, biceps femori...

Using an indirect immunoperoxidase technique, the location of cell bodies and fibres containing adrenocorticotropin hormone/corticotropin-like intermediate lobe peptide (ACTH/CLIP) was studied in the cat diencephalon. Immunoreactivity was observed in several diencephalic nuclei of the cat in which no immunoreactivity has been previously reported. In this sense, a low density of immunoreactive c...
