- Article scientifique
Article scientifique
Abstract
Background: In a changing European agricultural context, diversification of dairy farms is gaining attention. This study seeks to (1) assess musculoskeletal pain prevalence associated with tasks such as butter, yogurt, and cheese production; and (2) analyze associated risks. Methods: Observing 31, mostly female, workers, we utilized the ERGOROM questionnaire, a methodology adapted from ...
Diffusion in Phase Space as a Tool to Assess Variability of Vertical Centre-of-Mass Motion during Long-Range Walking

Article scientifique
When a Hamiltonian system undergoes a stochastic, time-dependent anharmonic perturbation,
the values of its adiabatic invariants as a function of time follow a distribution whose shape
obeys a Fokker–Planck equation. The effective dynamics of the body’s centre-of-mass during human
walking is expected to represent such a stochastically perturbed dynamical system. By studying, in
phase space, the ...

,
- Article scientifique
Article scientifique
Nowadays, the better assessment of low back pain (LBP) is an important challenge, as it is
the leading musculoskeletal condition worldwide in terms of years of disability. The objective of this
study was to evaluate the relevance of various machine learning (ML) algorithms and Sample Entropy
(SampEn), which assesses the complexity of motion variability in identifying the condition of low back
pain. ...
Head Pitch Angular Velocity Discriminates (Sub-)Acute Neck Pain Patients and Controls Assessed with the DidRen Laser Test

- Article scientifique
Article scientifique
Understanding neck pain is an important societal issue. Kinematic data from sensors may help to gain insight into the pathophysiological mechanisms associated with neck pain through a quantitative sensorimotor assessment of one patient. The objective of this study was to evaluate the potential usefulness of artificial intelligence with several machine learning (ML) algorithms in assessing neck ...
High Specificity of Single Inertial Sensor-Supplemented Timed Up and Go Test for Assessing Fall Risk in Elderly Nursing Home Residents
17 février 2022,
- CeREF Technique
,
- Article scientifique
Article scientifique
The Timed Up and Go test (TUG) is commonly used to estimate the fall risk in the elderly. Several ways to improve the predictive accuracy of TUG (cameras, multiple sensors, other clinical tests) have already been proposed. Here, we added a single wearable inertial measurement unit (IMU) to capture the residents’ body center-of-mass kinematics in view of improving TUG’s predictive accuracy. The aim ...
Motor strategies and adiabatic invariants: The case of rhythmic motion in parabolic flights
05 août 2021,
- CeREF Technique
,
- Article scientifique
Article scientifique
The role of gravity in human motor control is at the same time obvious and difficult to isolate. It can be
assessed by performing experiments in variable gravity. We propose that adiabatic invariant theory may be used
to reveal nearly conserved quantities in human voluntary rhythmic motion, an individual being seen as a complex
time-dependent dynamical system with bounded motion in phase space. ...
Perceived Usefulness of Telerehabilitation of Musculoskeletal Disorders: A Belgium–France Pilot Study during Second Wave of COVID-19 Pandemic
22 novembre 2021,
- CeREF Technique
,
- Article scientifique
Article scientifique
Background: COVID-19 has affected the practice of physiotherapy, and telerehabilitation (TR) may be seen as an alternative model of care if it is accepted by patients and physiotherapists. This study investigates the perceived usefulness of TR and the intention to use it among physiotherapists and patients from Belgium and France concerned with musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs) during the pandemic ...
Fine adaptive precision grip control without maximum pinch strength changes after upper limb neurodynamic mobilization

- Article scientifique
Article scientifique
Before and immediately after passive upper limb neurodynamic mobilizations targeting the median
nerve, grip ( GF ) and load ( LF ) forces applied by the thumb, index and major fingers (three-jaw chuck
pinch) were collected using a manipulandum during three different grip precision tasks: grip-lifthold-
replace (GLHR), vertical oscillations (OSC), and vertical oscillations with up and down ...
