Reality about migration of the nucleus pulposus within the intervertebral disc with changing postures
DOI: 10.1016/j.clinbiomech.2011.09.011
Abstract: Background: Previous studies reported that, in non-degenerate discs, the nucleus pulposus migrates posteriorly during flexion and anteriorly during extension within the intervertebral disc. ...

The effects of ankle foot orthoses on energy recovery and work during gait in children with cerebral palsy
DOI: 10.1016/j.clinbiomech.2011.09.005
Abstract: Background: Studies suggest that 50% of children with cerebral palsy are prescribed ankle foot orthoses. One of the aims of ankle foot orthosis use is to aid in walking. This research examin...

The influence of cyclic concentric and eccentric submaximal muscle loading on cell viability in the rabbit knee joint
DOI: 10.1016/j.clinbiomech.2011.09.012
Abstract: Background: Cartilage loading is associated with the onset and progression of osteoarthritis and cell death may play an important role in these processes. Although much is known about cell d...

Corset hypothesis rebutted — Transversus abdominis does not co-contract in unison prior to rapid arm movements
DOI: 10.1016/j.clinbiomech.2011.09.007
Abstract: Background: The aim of this paper is to test “corset” model of spinal stability, specifically the hypothesis that feed forward transversus abdominis activity is bilaterally symmetrical and i...
