Successful community and household ambulation require the ability to navigate corners and maneuver around obstacles, posing unique challenges compared to straight-line walking. The challenges associated with turning may contribute to an increased incidence of falling and the occurrence of fall-related injuries. A measure of stability applied to turning gait may be able to quantify a system's response to naturally occurring disturbances associated with turning and identify subjects at greater risk of falling. An index of stability has been used previously to assess the rate of kinematic separation (local dynamic stability) during straight-line gait. The purpose of this study was to determine if local dynamic stability during constant speed turning is reduced compared to straight-line treadmill walking. Maximum finite-time Lyapunov exponents (λ) were used to estimate the local stability of able-bodied subjects’ (n=19) sagittal plane hip, knee, and ankle trajectories for turning compared to straight-line walking at two different walking speeds. Turning λ was greater than straight λ for the hip, right knee, and ankle (p<0.05). Turning λ for the left knee angle was similar to straight λ. There were no differences in λ between left and right limbs for the hip and ankle and also no differences between the inside and outside limbs during turning for all joints. These findings indicate able-bodied subjects’ hip, right knee, and ankle kinematics are less locally stable while turning than walking in a straight line and may be used as a comparative tool for determining the efficacy of therapeutic interventions for mobility-impaired populations. 相似文献

Lower limb amputees have decreased balance during daily ambulation compared to nonamputees. An optimally compliant torsion adapter, which enables transverse plane rotation at the socket–pylon junction may reduce limb asymmetries and improve comfort leading to increased confidence and stability during gait. The purpose of this study was to determine if the presence of a torsion adapter affects amputee sensitivity to local perturbations (local dynamic stability) during straight-line walking and during a turning task. Ten unilateral transtibial amputees were fit with a torsion and rigid adapter in random order and blinded to the condition. After a 3-week acclimation period, kinematic data were collected while subjects walked in a straight-line on a treadmill and around a 1-m radius circular path at constant speed. Maximum finite-time Lyapunov exponents (λ), an estimator of local dynamic stability, were calculated for the amputee’s sagittal plane hip, knee and ankle angles for each condition. The prosthetic limb λ was greater during a turn compared to straight-line walking, suggesting amputees are less stable while turning. There were no statistically significant differences found in λ between adapters during both walking conditions, suggesting the torsion adapter had no effect on amputee stability; however, high inter-subject variability due to the examined population and turning task may have masked a small decrease in prosthetic limb hip and knee stability for the torsion adapter during straight-line gait. Therefore, the torsion adapter’s added degree of freedom may have a small adverse effect on prosthetic limb stability during straight-line walking and no effect on turning. 相似文献

The possibility of initiating an involuntary walking rhythm in a suspended human leg by electrical stimulation was studied. The subjects lay on the side with one leg suspended in an exoskeleton allowing horizontal rotation in three joints: the hip, knee, and ankle ones. To evoke involuntary walking of the suspended leg, two methods were used: continuous vibration of the quadriceps muscle of the hip and electrical stimulation of the cutaneous nerves innervating the foot of the immobile leg. The hip and ankle were involved in the involuntary movements, with reciprocal bursts of electromyographic activity being also observed in the antagonistic muscles of the hip. The application of an external load (4 N or 8 N) to the foot caused a perceptible intensification of its movements. An additional weight (0.5 kg) or a rubber band wrapped around the foot caused no substantial change in the pattern of stimulated walking. Electrical stimulation is an effective means of activating walking movements, and their characteristics confirm the assumption that the walking rhythm is of central origin. Additional afferentation from the sole’s receptors plays an important role in the modulation of the induced movements and the modification of the general walking pattern under the conditions of muscle unloading. 相似文献

Locomotor adaptation is commonly studied using split-belt treadmill walking, in which each foot is placed on a belt moving at a different speed. As subjects adapt to split-belt walking, they reduce metabolic power, but the biomechanical mechanism behind this improved efficiency is unknown. Analyzing mechanical work performed by the legs and joints during split-belt adaptation could reveal this mechanism. Because ankle work in the step-to-step transition is more efficient than hip work, we hypothesized that control subjects would reduce hip work on the fast belt and increase ankle work during the step-to-step transition as they adapted. We further hypothesized that subjects with unilateral, trans-tibial amputation would instead increase propulsive work from their intact leg on the slow belt. Control subjects reduced hip work and shifted more ankle work to the step-to-step transition, supporting our hypothesis. Contrary to our second hypothesis, intact leg work, ankle work and hip work in amputees were unchanged during adaptation. Furthermore, all subjects increased collisional energy loss on the fast belt, but did not increase propulsive work. This was possible because subjects moved further backward during fast leg single support in late adaptation than in early adaptation, compensating by reducing backward movement in slow leg single support. In summary, subjects used two strategies to improve mechanical efficiency in split-belt walking adaptation: a CoM displacement strategy that allows for less forward propulsion on the fast belt; and, an ankle timing strategy that allows efficient ankle work in the step-to-step transition to increase while reducing inefficient hip work. 相似文献

The pirouette turn is often initiated in neutral and externally rotated hip positions by dancers. This provides an opportunity to investigate how dancers satisfy the same mechanical objectives at the whole-body level when using different leg kinematics. The purpose of this study was to compare lower extremity control strategies during the turn initiation phase of pirouettes performed with and without hip external rotation. Skilled dancers (n=5) performed pirouette turns with and without hip external rotation. Joint kinetics during turn initiation were determined for both legs using ground reaction forces (GRFs) and segment kinematics. Hip muscle activations were monitored using electromyography. Using probability-based statistical methods, variables were compared across turn conditions as a group and within-dancer. Despite differences in GRFs and impulse generation between turn conditions, at least 90% of each GRF was aligned with the respective leg plane. A majority of the net joint moments at the ankle, knee, and hip acted about an axis perpendicular to the leg plane. However, differences in shank alignment relative to the leg plane affected the distribution of the knee net joint moment when represented with respect to the shank versus the thigh. During the initiation of both turns, most participants used ankle plantar flexor moments, knee extensor moments, flexor and abductor moments at the push leg׳s hip, and extensor and abductor moments at the turn leg׳s hip. Representation of joint kinetics using multiple reference systems assisted in understanding control priorities. 相似文献

Locomotion on complex substrata can be expressed in a plane by two geometric components of body movement: linear locomotion and rotational locomotion. This study examined pure rotation by analysing the geometry of leg movements and stepping patterns during the courtship turns of male Blattella germanica. Strict rotation or translation by an insect requires that each side of the body cover equal distance with respect to the substrate. There are three mechanisms by which the legs can maintain this equality: frequency of stepping, magnitude of the leg arcs relative to the body and the degree to which legs flex and extend during locomotion. During the courtship behaviour of Blattella germanica selected males executed turns involving body rotation along with leg movements in which the legs on the outside of the turn swung through greater average arcs than those on the inside of the turn. This difference should have resulted in a translation component. However, legs on the inside of the turn compensated by flexion and extension movements which were greater than those of opposing legs. The net effect was that both sides of the body covered equal average ground. These cockroaches used a wide variety of stepping combinations to effect rotation. The frequency of these combinations was compared to an expected frequency distribution of stepping combinations and further to an expected frequency of these stepping combinations used for straight walking. These comparisons demonstrated a similarity between interleg coordination during straight walking and that during turning in place. 相似文献

There is a growing interest for turning biomechanics notably because it is a more challenging task than straight-line walking during which some gait impairments are increased. Detecting heel-strike (HS) and toe-off (TO) events using the trajectory of markers attached to the feet is common in straight-line gait analysis and could reveal very useful to evaluate turning maneuvers. Yet, a comprehensive evaluation is missing, making difficult the selection of features for temporal analysis of turning. This study aimed to compare features of foot marker trajectories to detect HS and TO. Twenty healthy participants, 10 young (5 males, 23 ± 1 years old, 21.3 ± 2.2 kg/m2) and 10 elderly (4 males, 72 ± 5 years old, 26.4 ± 6.4 kg/m2), performed quarter, half, and full turns as well as straight-line walking in a gait lab. Fourteen features, adapted from straight-line walking literature, were used to detect HS and TO based on marker trajectories. Force plate measures served as reference. One HS and one TO feature were found particularly suitable. Overall, they detected more than 99% of the 1788 events recorded, with accuracies and precisions of −3.9 ms and 9.0 ms for HS and −7.8 ms and 10.7 ms for TO, respectively. Differences in accuracy and precision were observed among walking conditions and groups, but remained small, generally below 4.0 ms. In conclusion, this study identified kinematic features that can be used to analyze both turning and straight-line walking. Further assessment could be necessary with pathologies inducing severe degradation of gait patterns. 相似文献

We describe segment angles (trunk, thigh, shank, and foot) and joint angles (hip, knee, and ankle) for the hind limbs of bonobos walking bipedally ("bent-hip bent-knee walking," 17 sequences) and quadrupedally (33 sequences). Data were based on video recordings (50 Hz) of nine subjects in a lateral view, walking at voluntary speed. The major differences between bipedal and quadrupedal walking are found in the trunk, thigh, and hip angles. During bipedal walking, the trunk is approximately 33-41 degrees more erect than during quadrupedal locomotion, although it is considerably more bent forward than in normal human locomotion. Moreover, during bipedal walking, the hip has a smaller range of motion (by 12 degrees ) and is more extended (by 20-35 degrees ) than during quadrupedal walking. In general, angle profiles in bonobos are much more variable than in humans. Intralimb phase relationships of subsequent joint angles show that hip-knee coordination is similar for bipedal and quadrupedal walking, and resembles the human pattern. The coordination between knee and ankle differs much more from the human pattern. Based on joint angles observed throughout stance phase and on the estimation of functional leg length, an efficient inverted pendulum mechanism is not expected in bonobos. 相似文献

The purpose of this study was to characterize biomechanically three different crouch walking patterns, artificially induced in eight neurologically intact subjects and to compare them to selected cases of pathological crouch walking. The subjects were equipped with a lightweight mechanical exoskeleton with artificial muscles that acted in parallel with hamstrings and iliopsoas muscles. They walked at a speed of approximately 1m/s along the walkway under four experimental conditions: normal walking (NW), hamstrings contracture emulation (HAM), iliopsoas contracture emulation (IPS) and emulation of both hamstrings and iliopsoas contractures (IPSHAM). Reflective markers and force platform data were collected and ankle, knee and hip-joint angles, moments and powers were calculated. HAM and IPSHAM shifted ankle-angle rotation profiles into dorsiflexion during midstance compared to IPS and NW where ankle-angle trajectories were similar. HAM, IPS and IPSHAM shifted the knee angle of rotation profiles into flexion during stance, compared to NW. IPS and IPSHAM shifted hip angle of rotation profiles toward pronounced flexion while HAM shifted hip angle of rotation profile toward extension, compared to NW. HAM and IPSHAM significantly increased ankle moment during midstance, compared to IPS and NW where ankle moment profiles were similar. All experimental conditions exhibited similar behavior in the knee-moment profiles during midstance while IPS and IPSHAM knee-moment profiles exhibited significantly higher knee-extension moment during terminal stance and pre-swing. In the hip joint all experimental conditions exhibited similar shape of hip moment profiles throughout the gait cycle. HAM and IPS kinematic and kinetic patterns were qualitatively compared to two selected clinical cases, showing considerable similarity. This implies that distinct differences in kinematics and kinetics between HAM, IPS and IPSHAM may be clinically relevant in helping determine the relative contribution of hamstrings and iliopsoas muscles contractures to particular crouch walking. 相似文献

Turning is a common locomotor task essential to daily activity; however, very little is known about the forces and moments responsible for the kinematic adaptations occurring relative to straight-line gait in typically developing children. Thus, the aims of this study were to analyse ground reaction forces (GRFs), ground reaction free vertical torque (TZ), and the lower-limb joint kinetics of 90° outside (step) and inside (spin) limb turns. Step, spin, and straight walking trials from fifty-four typically developing children were analysed. All children were fit with the Plug-in Gait and Oxford Foot Model marker sets while walking over force plates embedded in the walkway. Net internal joint moments and power were computed via a standard inverse dynamics approach. All dependent variables were statistically analysed over the entire curves using the mean difference 95% bootstrap confidence band approach. GRFs were directed medially for step turns and laterally for spin turns during the turning phase. Directions were reversed and magnitudes decreased during the approach phase. Step turns showed reduced ankle power generation, while spin turns showed large TZ. Both strategies required large knee and hip coronal and transverse plane moments during swing. These kinetic differences highlight adaptations required to maintain stability and reorient the body towards the new walking direction during turning. From a clinical perspective, turning gait may better reveal weaknesses and motor control deficits than straight walking in pathological populations, such as children with cerebral palsy, and could potentially be implemented in standard gait analysis sessions. 相似文献

Tethered cockroaches turn from unilateral antennal contact using asymmetrical movements of mesothoracic (T2) legs (Mu and
Ritzmannin J Comp Physiol A 191:1037–1054, 2005). During the turn, the leg on the inside of the turn (the inside T2 leg) has distinctly different motor patterns from those
in straight walking. The transformation from walking to inside leg turning could be triggered by descending commands that
alter a few critical reflexes that start a cascade of physical changes in leg movement or posture, leading to further alterations.
This hypothesis has two implications: First, the descending activities must be able to influence thoracic reflexes. Second,
one should be able to initiate the turning motor pattern in the absence of descending signals by mimicking a point farther
down in the reflex cascade. We addressed the first implication in the companion paper. To examine the second implication,
we compared kinematics and motor activities of the T2 leg during searching with that of inside leg turning. The reaching movements
made during searching were found to be similar to the movements made by the inside leg during turning. Moreover, even after
disconnecting the brain from the thoracic ganglia the reaching movements were similar. This observation is consistent with
the second implication from the hypothesis. 相似文献

Background: Footwear-generated medio-lateral foot center of pressure manipulation has been shown to have potential positive effects on gait parameters of hip osteoarthritis patients, ultimately reducing maximum joint reaction forces. The objective of this study was to investigate effects of medio-lateral foot center of pressure manipulation on muscle activity of hip-spanning and back muscles during gait in bilateral hip osteoarthritis patients. Methods: Foot center of pressure was shifted along the medio-lateral foot axis using a foot-worn biomechanical device allowing controlled center of pressure manipulation. Sixteen female bilateral hip osteoarthritis patients underwent electromyography analysis while walking in the device set to three parasagittal configurations: neutral (control), medial, and lateral. Seven hip-spanning muscles (Gluteus Medius, Gluteus Maximus, Tensor Fascia Latae, Rectus Femoris, Semitendinosis, Biceps Femoris, Adductor Magnus) and one back muscle (Erector Spinae) were analyzed. Magnitude and temporal parameters were calculated. Results: The amplitude and temporal parameter varied significantly between foot center of pressure positions for 5 out of 8 muscles each for either the more or less symptomatic leg in at least one subphase of the gait cycle. Conclusion: Medio-lateral foot center of pressure manipulation significantly affects neuromuscular pattern of hip and back musculature during gait in female hip bilateral osteoarthritis patients. 相似文献

Accurate knowledge of the isolated contributions of joint movements to the three-dimensional displacement of the center of mass (COM) is fundamental for understanding the kinematics of normal walking and for improving the treatment of gait disabilities. Saunders et al. (1953) identified six kinematic mechanisms to explain the efficient progression of the whole-body COM in the sagittal, transverse, and coronal planes. These mechanisms, referred to as the major determinants of gait, were pelvic rotation, pelvic list, stance knee flexion, foot and knee mechanisms, and hip adduction. The aim of the present study was to quantitatively assess the contribution of each major gait determinant to the anteroposterior, vertical, and mediolateral displacements of the COM over one gait cycle. The contribution of each gait determinant was found by applying the concept of an ‘influence coefficient’, wherein the partial derivative of the COM displacement with respect to a prescribed determinant was calculated. The analysis was based on three-dimensional measurements of joint angular displacements obtained from 23 healthy young adults walking at slow, normal and fast speeds. We found that hip flexion, stance knee flexion, and ankle-foot interaction (comprised of ankle plantarflexion, toe flexion and the displacement of the center of pressure) are the major determinants of the displacements of the COM in the sagittal plane, while hip adduction and pelvic list contribute most significantly to the mediolateral displacement of the COM in the coronal plane. Pelvic rotation and pelvic list contribute little to the vertical displacement of the COM at all walking speeds. Pelvic tilt, hip rotation, subtalar inversion, and back extension, abduction and rotation make negligible contributions to the displacements of the COM in all three anatomical planes. 相似文献

When insects turn from walking straight, their legs have to follow different motor patterns. In order to examine such pattern
change precisely, we stimulated single antenna of an insect, thereby initiating its turning behavior, tethered over a lightly
oiled glass plate. The resulting behavior included asymmetrical movements of prothoracic and mesothoracic legs. The mesothoracic
leg on the inside of the turn (in the apparent direction of turning) extended the coxa-trochanter and femur-tibia joints during
swing rather than during stance as in walking, while the outside mesothoracic leg kept a slow walking pattern. Electromyograms
in mesothoracic legs revealed consistent changes in the motor neuron activity controlling extension of the coxa-trochanter
and femur-tibia joints. In tethered walking, depressor trochanter activity consistently preceded slow extensor tibia activity.
This pattern was reversed in the inside mesothoracic leg during turning. Also for turning, extensor and depressor motor neurons
of the inside legs were activated in swing phase instead of stance. Turning was also examined in free ranging animals. Although
more variable, some trials resembled the pattern generated by tethered animals. The distinct inter-joint and inter-leg coordination
between tethered turning and walking, therefore, provides a good model to further study the neural control of changing locomotion
patterns. 相似文献

Background
The Timed Up and Go (TUG) test is often used to estimate risk of falls. Foot clearance and displacement of the center of mass (COM), which are related to risk of tripping and dynamic stability have never been evaluated during the TUG. Accurate assessment of these parameters using instrumented measurements would provide a comprehensive assessment of risk of falls in hemiparetic patients. The aims of this study were to analyze correlations between TUG performance time and displacement of the COM and foot clearance in patients with stroke-related hemiparesis and healthy subjects during the walking and turning sub-tasks of the TUG and to compare these parameters between fallers and non-fallers.Methods
29 hemiparetic patients and 25 healthy subjects underwent three-dimensional gait analysis during the TUG test. COM and foot clearance were analyzed during the walking and turning sub-tasks of the TUG.Results
Lateral displacement of the COM was greater and faster during the walking sub-tasks and vertical displacement of the COM was greater during the turn in the patients compared to the healthy subjects (respectively p<0.01 and p<0.05). Paretic foot clearance was greater during walking and displacement of the COM was slower during the turn in the patients (p<0.01). COM displacement and velocity during the turn were correlated with TUG performance in the patients, however, vertical COM displacement was not. These correlations were significant in the healthy subjects. There were no differences between COM parameters or foot clearance in fallers and non-fallers.Discussion and Conclusion
Hemiparetic patients are less stable than healthy subjects, but compensate with a cautious gait to avoid tripping. Instrumented analysis of the TUG test appears relevant for the assessment of dynamic stability in hemiparetic patients, providing more information than straight-line gait. 相似文献16.

organ reflexes. The activity of depressor muscle (Ds) and slow extensor tibia muscle (SETi) was excited and inhibited by stretching
and relaxing the femoral chordotonal organ. However, the Ds responses were altered after eliminating the descending activity,
while the SETi responses remain similar. The inhibition to Ds activity by stretching the coxal chordotonal organ was also
altered after eliminating the descending activity. 相似文献

Background
Difficulty advancing the paretic limb during the swing phase of gait is a prominent manifestation of walking dysfunction following stroke. This clinically observable sign, frequently referred to as ‘foot drop’, ostensibly results from dorsiflexor weakness.Objective
Here we investigated the extent to which hip, knee, and ankle motions contribute to impaired paretic limb advancement. We hypothesized that neither: 1) minimal toe clearance and maximal limb shortening during swing nor, 2) the pattern of multiple joint contributions to toe clearance and limb shortening would differ between post-stroke and non-disabled control groups.Methods
We studied 16 individuals post-stroke during overground walking at self-selected speed and nine non-disabled controls who walked at matched speeds using 3D motion analysis.Results
No differences were detected with respect to the ankle dorsiflexion contribution to toe clearance post-stroke. Rather, hip flexion had a greater relative influence, while the knee flexion influence on producing toe clearance was reduced.Conclusions
Similarity in the ankle dorsiflexion, but differences in the hip and knee, contributions to toe clearance between groups argues strongly against dorsiflexion dysfunction as the fundamental impairment of limb advancement post-stroke. Marked reversal in the roles of hip and knee flexion indicates disruption of inter-joint coordination, which most likely results from impairment of the dynamic contribution to knee flexion by the gastrocnemius muscle in preparation for swing. These findings suggest the need to reconsider the notion of foot drop in persons post-stroke. Redirecting the focus of rehabilitation and restoration of hemiparetic walking dysfunction appropriately, towards contributory neuromechanical impairments, will improve outcomes and reduce disability. 相似文献18.

Foot placement is critical to balance control during walking and is primarily controlled by muscle force generation. Although gluteus medius activity has been associated with mediolateral foot placement, how other muscles contribute to foot placement is not clear. Furthermore, although dynamic walking models have suggested that anteroposterior foot placement can be passively controlled, the extent to which muscles actively contribute to anteroposterior foot placement has not been determined. The objective of this study was to identify individual muscle contributions to mediolateral and anteroposterior foot placement during walking in healthy adults. Dynamic simulations of walking were developed for six older adults and a segmental power analysis was performed to determine the individual muscle contributions to the mediolateral and anteroposterior power delivered to the foot segment. The simulations revealed the ipsilateral swing limb gluteus medius, iliopsoas, rectus femoris and hamstrings and the contralateral stance limb gluteus medius and ankle plantarflexors were primary contributors to both mediolateral and anteroposterior foot placement. Muscle contributions to foot placement were found to be highly influenced by their contributions to pelvis power, which was dominated by those muscles crossing the hip joint. Thus, impaired balance control may be improved by focusing rehabilitation interventions on optimizing the coordination of those muscles crossing the hip joint and the ankle plantarflexors. 相似文献

Positive and negative work are generated at the lower limb joints in order to locomote over various terrains. Joint work quantifies the changes in energy that are necessary to adapt gait to environmental demands. The aim of this study was to quantify 3D joint work at the hip, knee, and ankle during slope walking. Work was calculated for ten males (23.9 ± 1.1 years) walking at a self-selected speed on inclines and declines (−20, −12, −6, 0, 6, 12, 20 degrees). Sagittal positive work significantly increased at the hip, knee, and ankle for incline walking (for example, hip positive work increased 153%, 280%, and 453% for 6, 12, and 20 degrees, respectively; knee and ankle positive work also increased) (p ≤ 0.05), in order to raise and propel the body forward. Sagittal negative work increased significantly at the hip, knee and ankle for decline walking (for example, knee negative work increased 193%, 355%, and 496% for −6, −12, and −20 degrees, respectively; hip and ankle negative work also increased) (p ≤ 0.05), in order to control body descent. These substantial changes in work will be especially challenging for people with compromised strength due to age and disease. Furthermore, changes in work were not limited to the sagittal plane: 46% of the total hip joint work occurred in the frontal and transverse planes for six degree decline walking. Thus, decline walking placed greater demands on the hip ab/adductors and rotators, and this may be related to the greater risk of falls observed for descent versus ascent. 相似文献
