Summary: This study evaluated the effect of KT on forearm performance fatigability. The results showed that KT did not improve the maximal muscle strength of the forearm in healthy individuals, but had a lesser decline in driving torque efficiency. Therefore, KT may decrease the loss rate of muscle strength and delay the development of fatigue.

Summary: The results of this ex-vivo study indicate that under the testing conditions employed, plate fixation of the radius to the carpus and metacarpus does not limit supination and pronation of the feline antebrachium.

Summary: This study evaluates the mechanical effect of Morton's extension as an orthopedic intervention in patients with bilateral foot pronation posture. It examines variations in hindfoot and forefoot prone-supinator forces during the stance phase of gait. The results indicate that the use of Morton's extension decreases the maximum force of pronation and increases supination of the subtalar joint.

Summary: The study evaluates the potential use of a non-contact hand motion tracking system to extract GP information in Parkinson's Disease. The frequency of P/S contributes significantly to the prediction of GP, along with speed and acceleration. Additionally, there is a negative correlation between hand motion speed and BA score/combined UPDRS score.

Summary: Wearable sensors combined with deep learning approaches can be used to assess the severity of motor impairment in Parkinson's disease. By incorporating motion data from healthy older adults and utilizing unsupervised pre-training, the classification performance can be improved. Learning from healthy older adults' motion data can enhance the representation of Parkinson's disease motion data for motor impairment classification.

Summary: This study investigated crosstalk in mechanomyographic signals from elbow flexors during isometric muscle actions at varying effort levels. The results showed that crosstalk increased with higher muscle activity levels, with the magnitude varying among different muscle pairs and showing a high positive correlation with the crosstalk levels between biceps brachii and brachialis muscles.

Summary: In this paper, the authors introduce librbd, a C library for time-dependent reliability evaluation of Reliability Block Diagrams (RBDs). The library achieves comparable or even better accuracy and efficiency than other established tools by combining different modeling formalisms and solution techniques at different system levels.
