Abstract:
Background: Postural asymmetries are thought to lead to impairment of body structure and function such as muscle imbalance, gait asymmetry and possible chronic conditions, which result in limitation of mobility and restriction of daily activity for transfemoral amputees (TFAs). Despite the potential clinical impact, postural asymmetries have not been confirmed or quantified in TFAs.Objectives: To identify the presence of postural asymmetries in TFAs utilizing clinical evaluation measures.Study design: An observational cross-sectional study in which participants were evaluated at a single time

Abstract:
Background: Gait speed and postural stability are indicators of community level ambulation and may be a valuable measure of disability.
 Objectives: to investigate the relation between the distribution of weight on both lower extremities and gait speed in children with spastic cerebral palsy.
 Methods: Evaluation for weight distribution on both lower limbs and speed during gait for sixty children with spastic diplegia and forty-five children with hemiplegia was carried out by the Biodex gait trainer. Pearson correlation test was conducted to determine the relation of the symmetry ind

Abstract:
The purpose of the study was to evaluate the effectiveness and feasibility of using applied kinesiology in a posture correction program for middle school children. The study involved 20 children aged 14-15 years (10 girls and 10 boys) who had postural disorders in the frontal plane. Three methods were used to assess posture: visual diagnosis, diagnosis by plumb line, and scoliosis measurement. Visual diagnosis included the evaluation of posture symmetry by shoulder height, scapula angles, and waist triangles symmetry. Diagnosis by plumb line assessed the alignment of spinous processes along a

Abstract:
This study investigates gait symmetry and single-leg stance balance of professional yoga instructors versus age-matched typically developed controls using inertial measurement unit (IMU)-based evaluation. We recruited twenty-five yoga instructors and twenty-five healthy control subjects to conduct the walking experiments and single-leg stance tests. Kinematic data were measured by attaching IMUs to the lower limbs and trunk. We assessed the asymmetry of swing phases during the normal-walk and tandem-walk tests with eyes open and closed, respectively. The subjects subsequently conducted four si

Abstract:
Background: According to statistics, worldwide, the number of young persons diagnosed with idiopathic scoliosis has tripled in the last 10 years. This tendency seems to be related to the development of technological devices that induce vicious postures. Specialized literature shows that the predicted evolution will lead to a tripling of the population affected by scoliosis by 2050. Associated complications can be most varied, with functional or respiratory and cardiac impairment being the most severe.

The aim of the study was to identify postural deviations and trunk asymmetries by comparing the anterior and posterior body views in physical therapy students using a mobile application based on artificial intelligence. The study included 49 students, specializing in physical therapy, aged between 21-24 years. The evaluation was carried out with the mobile application AI Posture Evaluation and Correction System (APECS), which uses markers placed on the body photograph and photogrammetric algorithms for precise scanning of body symmetry. The analysis included 6 transversal parameters and 3 trun

Abstract:
Primary school children are exposed to asymmetric loads that lead to an imbalance of postural muscles and a violation of the body relative symmetry. Mass screening examinations in schools for scoliotic posture and scoliosis are conducted primarily through the Adams test. It has low reproducibility and a high frequency of false negative results. In practice, various methods for diagnosing posture disorders are also used. Some methods are based on the evaluation of postural muscles static endurance, elasticity and proportionality of their functional capabilities. Others are based on a comprehens

Abstract:
Postural distortion of human bite marks on skin occurs when photographing a bite mark in a body position other than the position of the body at the time of biting. Postural distortion in the bite mark may introduce significant changes in both the shape and size of the recorded marks. As a result, the analysis of the marks may be hindered and a proper comparison between the bite mark and the causal dentition may be precluded. Therefore, a method by which postural distortion in a bite mark photographic record can be evaluated and eliminated with minimal operator subjectivity is required. This st

abstract: The increased risk of falling and the worse ability to perform other daily physical activities in the elderly cause concern about monitoring and correcting basic everyday movement. In this thesis, a Kinect-based system was designed to assess one of the most important factors in balance control of human body when doing Sit-to-Stand (STS) movement: the postural symmetry in mediolateral direction. A symmetry score, calculated by the data obtained from a Kinect RGB-D camera, was proposed to reflect the mediolateral postural symmetry degree and was used to drive a real-time audio feedback

Abstract:
So far only radiometric methods have been available for the evaluation of operating results with respect to the obtained correction. Rasterstereography has been proved to be a reliable method for three-dimensional surface measurement of brace-treated patients with ideopathic scoliosis. Therefore, patients treated operatively by Zielke instrumentation (VDS) were examined using rasterstereography regarding the three-dimensional correction of spinal deformity. The aim was to measure back shape deformity before and after VDS with a view to correction of abnormal vertebral rotation and reduction of
