The aim of the study was to compare plantar sensation, proprioception, and balance levels between pregnant women with Gestational Diabetes Mellitus and healthy pregnant women. Also, we aimed to investigate the relationship between parameters that were found to be different and sensory sensitivity, balance, and position sense ..read more

Morphometric and geometric properties had a key influence on the calvarium's biomechanics. Trabecular bone pattern factor and the morphometry and geometry of the cortical tables must be considered when evaluating the mechanical response of the calvarium. These properties can aid the design of surrogate models of the skull that seek to mimic its mechanical response for head impact simulation ..read more

In vivo long-term used silicone catheters showed significantly lower ultimate strength than unused ones. It is likely that in situ altering changes the mechanical properties of catheters and may potentially lead to failure ..read more

Shoulder kinematics may be improved after reverse shoulder arthroplasty in the postoperative period. Focusing on scapular stabilization and deltoid muscle control in the postoperative rehabilitation program may enhance the shoulder kinematics and upper extremity function ..read more

Those undergoing hemodialysis often lead sedentary lives, with mobility affected by fear of falling and plantar numbness. Using walking aids can help, but it doesn't guarantee more walking. A combined psychosocial and physical therapy approach is key for managing fall concerns and improving mobility ..read more

The statistical parametric mapping approach showed to be suitable for determining gait changes in post-stroke individuals, irrespective of their motor recovery stage ..read more

Global failure loads were comparable among the three groups and unchanged with augmentation because the adjacent segment and not the instrumentation failed first. Augmentation of all screws showed significant improved in screw anchorage ..read more

Dynamic CT enhances our understanding of carpal arthrokinematics in a cadaveric model of SLIL injury. Scapholunate median interosseous proximities in flexion, extension, and ulnar deviation best demonstrate ligamentous integrity ..read more

Observed group differences in tandem balance agree with previous studies, indicating impaired proprioception. The current findings provide preliminary evidence that balance and trunk sensorimotor characteristics were significantly associated with patient-reported outcomes in patients. Early and period screening could help clinicians further categorize patients and develop objective treatment plans ..read more

Finite element simulation of the ankle shows promise as a clinical tool for improving outcomes. Standardisation of model creation and standardisation of reporting would increase trust, and enable independent validation, through which successful clinical application of the research could be realised ..read more
