The influence of collegiate football on congnitive functioning as determined by the Standard Assessment of Concussion (SAC[superscript TM]) test

Creator:: Franz, Chelsey E.
Abstract:: Objective: To investigate neurocognitive effects of collegiate football players as assessed by the Standardized Assessment of Concussion (SAC™) testing battery and a self-reported concussion symptoms checklist. Design and Setting: We used a one-way MANOVA to evaluate differences in SAC™ test scores between intercollegiate football players with no history of concussion...

Efficacy of lateral heel wedge orthotics for the treatment of patients with knee osteoarthritis

Creator:: Wallace, David A.
Abstract:: Lateral heel wedge orthotics are designed to reduce medial tibiofemoral joint loading and pain in patients with knee osteoarthritis (OA). To date, the efficacy of long-term lateral heel wedge orthotics use among OA patients has not been determined. This study evaluated the extent to which lateral heel wedge orthotics reduced...

Assessment of pre-fire season physical fitness training among Bureau of Land Management wildland firefighters

Creator:: Hawkins, Jeremy R.
Abstract:: Wildland firefighters encounter many situations during forest fires that require them to rely on their knowledge, experience, and fitness level for survival While energy expenditure of wildland firefighters on the fire line has been well established, relatively little is known about the physical fitness level of wildland firefighters when they...

The effects of 3-months of foot orthotic wear on measures of postural stability in persons with chronic injury and normal lower limb function

Creator:: Hornyik, Maria L.
Abstract:: Under researched somatosensory contributions to postural stability, in addition to high incident rates of foot injury in the physically active population, lead to two investigative studies. An initial research study compared variables of two postural stability assessment devices to determine reliability of outcome measures and commonality of outcome measures to...

The effect of rotational range of motion deficits on glenohumeral joint force production and capsuloligamentous laxity in collegiate baseball pitchers

Creator:: Leddon, Charles
Abstract:: Decreases in glenohumeral (GH) rotation motion and rotator cuff strength have been linked to multiple pathologies in the throwing arms of baseball pitchers, but a full understanding of the shoulder mechanisms affected by a total arc of motion deficit (TAMD) has not yet been achieved. This study was designed to...

Evaluation of outcomes following thermal, open and arthroscopic glenohumeral capsulorrhaphy for recurrent anterior instability

Creator:: Sullivan, Jeff A.
Abstract:: PURPOSE: To compare glenohumeral joint position sense (JPS), concentric internal (IR) and external rotation (ER) strength, functional ability, and level of satisfaction in patients who underwent three types of glenohumeral capsulorrhaphy with age-matched controls. RESEARCH DESIGN: Four 4x2 and two 4x3 ANOVAs were used to identify differences in JPS and...

Meiotic chromosome behavior in two tall fescue (Festuca arundinacea Schreb.) genotypes and their sterile hybrid

Creator:: Vásquez, Raul Moreno
Abstract:: Two diverse genotypes of tall fescue, Festuca arundinacea Schreb (6X=42), with normal fertility, produced upon intercrossing, vigorous F ₁ hybrid plants that were sterile. One parent genotype (P₁) was from P. I. 234-906, introduced from Switzerland and the other (P₉) was an introduction from Turkey, P. I. 174-209. P₁ and...

Assessment of the acute sensorimotor and neurocognitive effects of repeated heading of a soccer ball

Creator:: Arthur-Banning, Skye
Abstract:: Several recent studies have revealed that high caliber European professional soccer players often have diminished levels of neurological functioning, yet no study has been able to identify the specific aspect of soccer participation responsible for these decreases. In an effort to identify a source of mild traumatic brain injury present...

Contributions of selected muscles to the dynamic stability of the medial aspect of the elbow

Creator:: Leddon, Charles
Abstract:: The ulnar collateral ligament (UCL) is the primary restraint against valgus forces at the elbow. This structure cannot support the entire load placed upon the medial elbow during overhand throwing motions such as pitching a baseball. In this study we measured the contributions that different muscle groups make to the...

Effects of whole body vibration and progressive resistance exercise on balance and lower extremity strength

Creator:: Dodge, Nathan
Abstract:: Whole body vibration (WBV) is widely used as a mechanical stimulus for neuromuscular training, and to a lesser extent, in the treatment of patients undergoing physical rehabilitation. PURPOSE: To quantify any beneficial and/or synergistic effects associated with the longitudinal administration of WBV and progressive resistance (PRE) exercise on lower extremity...
