Am J Phys Anthropol
. 2021 Mar;
176(1):134-143.
PMID: 33782957
Objectives: Some previous studies suggest that humans do not conform to geometric similarity (isometry) in anthropometric dimensions of the upper and lower limbs. Researchers often rely on a single statistical...

. 2019 Jun;
72:188-194.
PMID: 31226601
Background: Freezing of gait (FOG) during gait initiation in people with Parkinson's disease (PD) may be related to a diminished ability to generate anticipatory postural adjustments (APAs). Externally applied perturbations...

. 2018 Oct;
26(11):2210-2216.
PMID: 30307872
Anticipatory postural adjustments (APAs) precede gait initiation and function to accelerate the center of mass forward and towards the initial stance leg. Impairments in APA generation, such as those seen...

Appl Ergon
. 2018 Jun;
70:44-50.
PMID: 29866324
One of the most common causes of injuries among firefighters is slips, trips, and falls on the fireground. Acute fatigue from firefighting activities and/or carrying asymmetric loads might impact gait...
