• Visual perturbation increased muscle activation while walking on incline treadmill. Steeper treadmill elicited more lower extremity activation. Females had pronounced responses to visual than males. Virtual reality could be a promising paradigm for astronauts' training.

conclusions these results suggest that treadmill training and yoga practice improved ambulatory function, fatigue and mood status in the individuals with mild to moderate ms. patients and methods thirty-one ms patients, all female with mean of age of 36.75 years and expanded disability status scale scores (edss) of 1.0 to 4.0 were recruited. subjects were randomly assigned to one of the three g...

objective(s) several studies have reported improved response of exercised hearts to myocardial infarction (mi). this study was aimed to evaluate the preventive role of treadmill exercise and diosgenin on cardiac marker enzymes, thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (tbars), total antioxidant status (tas), lipids, and electrocardiographic (ecg) patterns in isoproterenol (iso)-induced myocardia...

objectives: multiple sclerosis (ms) is a disease of the central nervous system that results in many symptoms including mobility limitation, fatigue, cognitive dysfunction and redacted quality of life. the purpose of this study was to determine the effect of 8-weeks aerobic and yoga training on depression, anxiety and quality of life in individuals with ms. methods: 31 women with ms (mean of age...

gait rehabilitation using body weight support on a treadmill is a recommended rehabilitation technique for neurological injuries, such as spinal cord injury. in this paper, a new robotic orthosis is presented for treadmill training. in the presented design the criteria such as low inertia of robot components, backdrivability, high safety and degrees of freedom based on human walking are conside...

The purpose of this study was to determine differences in VO2max and metabolic variables between treadmill running and treadmill skating. This study also examined VO2max responses during a continuous skating treadmill protocol and a discontinuous skating treadmill protocol. Sixteen male high school hockey players, who had a mean age of 16 +/- 1 years and were of an above-average fitness level, ...
