  1. 1. Foot-Ankle Joints Responses. Epidemiology, Biomechanics and Mathematical Modeling

    Författare :Chantal S. Parenteau; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; mathematical models; biomechanics; range of motion; ankle injury; injury mechanisms; ligament failure; center of rotation; ankle and subtalar joints; ankle fracture;

    Sammanfattning : The purpose of this thesis is to acquire better knowledge of foot-ankle injuries because of their increasing importance in car crashes. Three approaches were used: epidemiology, biomechanics and mathematical modeling. LÄS MER

  2. 2. On ankle fractures

    Författare :Emilia Möller Rydberg; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Ankle Fracture; Fracture Register; Epidemiology; Incidence; Treatment; Management; Treatment Algorithm; Knowledge Support;

    Sammanfattning : Ankle fractures range from simple avulsions to complex injuries and the treatment options are numerous. Sweden has no national guidelines regarding the management and treatment of ankle fractures, leaving these choices up to local tradition or individuals’ decisions. LÄS MER

  3. 3. Studies of ankle fractures : classification, epidemiology, complications and results

    Författare :Hans Juto; Per Morberg; Magnus Hultin; Michael Möller; Sari Ponzer; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Ankle fracture; Swedish Fracture Register; AO OTA-classification; epidemiology; venous thromboembolic event; low-molecular-weight heparin; sick leave; outcome; Orthopaedics; ortopedi;

    Sammanfattning : The ankle fracture is one of the most common fractures in adult patients and is a heterogeneous group of fractures. From the fully stable fracture on the most distal part of thefibula to severely unstable and even dislocated ankles. Patients with ankle fractures often report a good result after treatment, but a small group have persistent problems. LÄS MER

  4. 4. Biomechanical consequences of gait impairment at the ankle and foot : Injury, malalignment, and co-contraction

    Författare :Ruoli Wang; Elena Gutierrez-Farewik; Eva Broström; Eriksson Anders; Ilse Jonkers; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; muscle function; gait analysis; induced acceleration; foot kinematics; dynamic joint stiffness;

    Sammanfattning : The human foot contributes significantly to the function of the whole lower extremity during standing and locomotion. Nevertheless, the foot and ankle often suffer injuries and are affected by many musculoskeletal and neurological pathologies. LÄS MER

  5. 5. High-Density Electromyography-Based Methods for Joint Torque Prediction and Motor Unit Behavior Observation

    Författare :Asta Kizyte; Ruoli Wang; Elena Gutierrez-Farewik; Christian Antfolk; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Ankle; isometric contractions; machine learning; neuromuscular control; spinal cord injury; Fotled; isometriska kontraktioner; maskininlärning; neuromuskulär kontroll; ryggmärgsskada; Teknisk mekanik; Engineering Mechanics;

    Sammanfattning : Electromyography (EMG) is a technique that measures the electrical activity of muscles. It reflects muscle activation and provides an interface to the central nervous system at the level of the muscle or individual motor units, which helps us understand the mechanisms of muscle force production, control, and coordination.
