PURPOSE: The goal was to assess in healthy participants the three-dimensional kinematics of the pelvis and the trunk during robot-assisted treadmill walking (RATW) at 0%, 30% and 50% body weight support (BWS), compared with treadmill walking (TW).
BACKGROUND: Heart failure (HF) is a highly prevalent condition characterized by exercise intolerance, an important metric for ambulatory prognostication. However, current methods to assess exercise capacity are often limited to tertiary HF centers, l...
Exposure to charcoal biomass (CB) pollutants affects the cardiorespiratory system. We assessed cardiopulmonary responses (CPR) to exercise in charcoal producers (CPs) compared to farmers and evaluated the prevalence of exercise-induced bronchoconstri...
The present study aimed to explore the validity and inter-device reliability of a novel artificial intelligence app (Asstrapp) for real-time measurement of the traditional (tra505) and modified-505 (mod505) change of direction (COD) tests. Twenty-fiv...

AIMS: This study aimed to determine in patients undergoing stress cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) whether fully automated stress artificial intelligence (AI)-based left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEFAI) can provide incremental prognostic...
INTRODUCTION: Several challenges face the U.S. Marine Corps (USMC) and other services in their efforts to design recruit training to augment warfighter mobility and resilience in both male and female recruits as part of an integrated model. Strength ...
