Aktivita svalů dolních končetin při provádění dřepu a techniky seoi nage v judu / Lower limb muscle activity during squat and judo technique seoi nageHolý, Jakub January 2015 (has links)
Title: Lower limb muscle activity during squat and technique seoi nage in judo Objectives: Goals of my work is finding activity lower muscle limb using surface electromyography in shallow squat, deep squat and seoi nage technic in judo. From the obtained results will be compared muscle activity in relative to MVC and compared timing activity of measuring muscles between deep squat and technic seoi nage right. Methods: Research component consisted of 10 subjects, 5 of fitness and 5 are active judokas. With using surface electromyography and kinematic analysis we monitored activity of measured muscles in shallow and deep squat, and seoi nage technic. The size of muscle activity was assessed in relation to MVC. Results: Evaluation of the results showed a higher involvement by m. gluteus maximus in deep squat than shallow squat. Deep squat makes higher muscles activity. Performing of seoi nage technique resulted in higher values by m. quadriceps femoris. Sequence involvement of muscles during deep squat and seoi nage techniques in selected subjects showed we a strong similarity with various techniques. Key words: Lower limb muscle,judo, electromyography, squat, seoi nage

Simulation of Lower Limb Muscle Activity During Inclined Slope Walking / Simulering av muskelaktivering för nedre extremiteten vid gång i lutningArumuganainar, Ganesh Prasanth January 2019 (has links)
Robotic exoskeletons are designed to assist patients with motor dysfunctions. Recent researches focus on extending the robotic assistance to patient activities other than ground level walking. This study aims to analyse the lower limb muscle activity during inclined slope walking contrasting with that of ground level walking. Two different angles of inclination were chosen: 9 degrees and 18 degrees. 9 degrees inclined slope is the universal ramp size for wheelchairs. The hypothesis is that muscle activation, and ultimately metabolic cost, in inclined slope walking is different from that of ground level walking. Collected motion data and simulation in OpenSim prove that the difference in metabolic cost is because of increased activity of ankle dorsiflexors and hip extensors and reduced activity of knee extensors. Finally, muscle activities along with other criteria such as kinematic alignment and joint range of motion are summed up as biomechanical considerations for robotic exoskeleton design.

Disfunció Muscular en Malalts amb malaltia Pulmonar Obstructiva Crònica (MPOC)Coronell Coronell, Carlos Gustavo 02 March 2006 (has links)
La Enfermedad Pulmonar Obstructiva Crónica (EPOC), presenta signos y síntomas sistémicos que se han venido explorando desde hace algún tiempo. La presente Tesis Doctoral estudia la disfunción que presentan los músculos respiratorios y periféricos, específicamente el cuádriceps de los pacientes con EPOC. Esta disfunción muscular afecta las actividades de la vida diaria, la tolerancia al ejercicio, limita la calidad de vida y disminuye la expectativa de vida de estos pacientes. Una de las posibles causas de disfunción muscular en los pacientes con EPOC puede ser la pérdida de masa muscular; por eso nos dedicamos a evaluar, los datos antropométricos de los pacientes con EPOC que asistieron durante 2 años a nuestro Laboratorio de Función Respiratoria del Hospital del Mar de Barcelona. La prevalencia de bajo peso en pacientes con EPOC en un hospital con predominante población mediterránea con, índice de masa corporal (IMC) por debajo de 20 Kg/m2, fue de tan sólo 6,6%, cifra que se reducía al 3,1% si el dintel escogido era de 18 Kg/m2. Estas cifras van claramente en oposición a la prevalencia referida en el mundo anglosajón y del norte-centro europeo, que muestra una prevalencia de bajo peso en pacientes con EPOC que oscila entre el 25 y el 35%. Teniendo en cuentas estos datos de baja prevalencia de bajo peso en nuestros pacientes con EPOC, no se explica la alta prevalencia de disfunción muscular en ellos. Por ello evaluamos variables de función muscular en pacientes con EPOC grave, específicamente del músculo cuádriceps y encontramos que los pacientes con EPOC tenían una disminución tanto de la fuerza muscular (43%), como de la resistencia muscular (77%), al compararlos con controles del mismo grupo etáreo.Tratando de profundizar en la causa de la disfunción muscular periférica en los pacientes con EPOC, hicimos a continuación otro estudio donde evaluamos el daño sarcoplásmico y sarcomérico mediante inmunohistoquímica y microscopía electrónica. Este trabajo demostró por primera vez que los pacientes con EPOC presentan mayor daño a nivel del músculo cuádriceps que los controles sanos.Debido a que en la EPOC los músculos periféricos, específicamente los de las extremidades inferiores, pudieran estar afectados por el sedentarismo, decidimos estudiar otras causas de disfunción muscular en un grupo de músculos en que este factor se hallara ausente, como son los músculos respiratorios. Estos mantienen su nivel de actividad normal o incluso aumentada. Para ello tomamos un músculo como el intercostal externo, que es fácilmente accesible a la biopsia, siguiendo un modelo mínimamente invasivo descrito por nuestro grupo. Como en trabajos precedentes ya habíamos valorado el daño sarcomérico, el estrés oxidativo o la actividad enzimática, en esta ocasión el trabajo se centró en la evaluación de la actividad inflamatoria. En él se ha demostrado que las citocinas proinflamatorias TNF-α e IL-6 se encuentran aumentadas en los músculos intercostales externos de los pacientes con EPOC al compararlo con los controles sanos. / Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD), shows systemic sign and symptoms that have been studied for some time. The present Doctoral Thesis studies the dysfunction shown by the respiratory and peripheral muscles, specifically the quadriceps muscle of patients with COPD. This muscle dysfunction affects the activities of daily living, tolerance to exercise, limits quality of life and diminishes life expectancy of these patients. One of the possible causes of muscle dysfunction in the patients with COPD could be the loss of muscle mass; for that reason we evaluated, the anthropometrics data of the patients with COPD that attended during 2 years our Respiratory Function Laboratory, Hospital del Mar of Barcelona. The prevalence of low weight in patients with COPD in a hospital with a predominantly Mediterranean population with an Body Mass Index (BMI) below 20 Kg/m2, was only 6.6%, a figure that was reduced to 3.1% if the chosen threshold was 18 Kg/m2. These numbers starkly contrast to the prevalence in Northern Europe, with a low weight in patients with COPD raging from 25 to 35%. Considering these data of low prevalence of low weight in our patients with COPD, the high prevalence of muscle dysfunction is not explained. We evaluated variables of muscle function in patients with severe COPD, specifically the quadriceps muscle and we found that the patients with COPD had a decreased muscle strength (43%), and muscle endurance (77%), when comparing with healthy age matched. To study the cause of the peripheral muscle dysfunction in patients with COPD, we began another study where we assessed sarcoplasmic and sarcomeric damage by immunohystochemical methods and electronic microscopy. This work demonstrated for the first time that patients with COPD show greater muscle injury at the quadriceps muscle level that healthy age matched controls.Because in COPD, peripheral muscles, specifically those of the lower limbs, could be affected by sedentarism, we decided to study other causes of muscle dysfunction in a muscle group in which this factor was absent, as they are the respiratory muscles. These maintain their level of normal activity or activity is even increased. For this we chose a respiratory muscle like the external intercostal muscle, that is easily accessible by biopsy, following a minumum invasive model described by our group. As in preceding works of our group we evaluated the sarcomeric damage, oxidative stress or the enzymatic activity, the present work was focused in the inflammatory activity evaluation. We demonstrated that proinflammatory cytokines such as TNF-α and IL-6 are increased in the external intercostal muscles of patients with COPD when comparing with healthy age matched controls.
