Three-dimensional kinematic correlates of ball velocity during maximal instep soccer kicking in males
(2014-04-23)
Achieving a high ball velocity is important during soccer shooting, as it gives the goalkeeper less time to react, thus improving a player's chance of scoring. This study aimed to identify important technical aspects of ...
Auditory processing and sensory behaviours in children with autism spectrum disorders as revealed by mismatch negativity
(2014-04-01)
Sensory dysfunctions may underlie key characteristics in children with Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD). The current study aimed to investigate auditory change detection in children with ASD in order to determine event-related ...
The influence of different force and pressure measuring transducers on lower extremity kinematics measured during running
(2014-02-01)
In running analyses where both kinetic and kinematic information is recorded, participants are required to make foot contact with a force and/or pressure measuring transducer. Problems arise if participants modify their ...
Treatment of rheumatoid arthritis with etanercept with reference to disease-modifying anti-rheumatic drugs : long-term safety and survival using prospective, observational data
(2014-01)
The objective of this study was to examine the long-term safety of etanercept (ETN) in comparison with conventional DMARDs in a large observational cohort of RA patients in the UK.
Movement speed is biased by prior experience
(2014-01-01)
How does the motor system choose the speed for any given movement? Many current models assume a process that finds the optimal balance between the costs of moving fast and the rewards of achieving the goal. Here, we show ...
The effect of different durations of carbohydrate mouth rinse on cycling performance
(2014)
Carbohydrate (CHO) mouth rinse has been shown to improve time trial performance. Although the exact mechanism remains un-established, research postulates that there are oral cavity receptors which increase neural drive. ...
Trajectories of functional limitation in early rheumatoid arthritis and their association with mortality
(2013-11)
This study aimed to identify subgroups with distinct trajectories of functional (HAQ) progression over 10 years following diagnosis of RA and identify baseline characteristics associated with the trajectories and their ...
Energy metabolism, body composition, and urea generation rate in hemodialysis patients
(2013-10-01)
Hemodialysis (HD) adequacy is currently assessed using normalized urea clearance (Kt/V), although scaling based on Watson volume (V) may disadvantage women and men with low body weight. Alternative scaling factors such as ...
Influence of surface on impact shock experienced during a fencing lunge
(2013-08)
The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of sports surface on the magnitude of impact shock experienced during a lunge movement. Thirteen experienced, competitive fencers (age 32.4 ± 4.6 years; height 178.4 ...
Baseline factors predicting change from the initial DMARD treatment during the first 2 years of rheumatoid arthritis : experience in the ERAN inception cohort
(2013-05)
Outcomes in early Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA) may be improved by rapidly establishing a stable and effective disease modifying anti-rheumatic drug (DMARD) treatment regimen. We aimed to investigate whether baseline factors ...
