    Comparison of Biomechanical Characteristics during the Second Landing Phase in Female Latin Dancers: Evaluation of the Bounce and Side Chasse Step

    Fengfeng Li1, Huiyu Zhou1,2, Datao Xu1, Julien S. Baker3, Yaodong Gu1,*

    Molecular & Cellular Biomechanics, Vol.19, No.3, pp. 115-129, 2022, DOI:10.32604/mcb.2022.022658 - 14 June 2022

    Abstract Research on dance lower extremity joint motion has been limited. Thus, the purpose of this study was to investigate the lower limb biomechanics differences between the side chasse step (SCS) and the bounce step (BS) of the second landing phase in Jive. Thirteen female recreational Latin dancers (Age: 22 ± 2.5 years; Height: 1.65 ± 0.05 m; Weight: 50 ± 4.5 kg; Dance experience: 4 ± 2 years) were involved in the experiment. The same music was used throughout the data collection period. We intended to determine whether these two steps generate different kinematic and kinetic data. The ankle, hip, and knee More >

    Complete Coalescence, Partial Bounce and Rebound: Different Regimes Resulting from the Interaction of a Free Falling Drop with a Target Fluid

    Yuli D. Chashechkin, Andrey Y. Ilinykh*

    FDMP-Fluid Dynamics & Materials Processing, Vol.16, No.4, pp. 801-811, 2020, DOI:10.32604/fdmp.2020.09168 - 11 August 2020

    Abstract The interaction of a falling drop (diluted aqueous solution of ink in various concentrations) with a target fluid (partially degassed tap water) has been tracked by means of high-resolution video recording and photography. The experimental setup has carefully been prepared in order to preserve the axial symmetry of initial conditions. Three regimes of interaction have been identified accordingly (depending on the drop velocity as controlled by the distance of fall): rapid droplet coalescence, rebound with the conservation of the drop volume and shape, and partial coalescence. Previous findings are recovered and confirmed, and enriched with More >

    Risk factors for PSAbounce following radiotherapy: outcomes from a multi-modal therapy analysis

    Alexandra Waters1, Guila Delouya1, David Donath1, Carole Lambert1, Sandra Larrivée2, Kevin C. Zorn3, Daniel Taussky1,2

    Canadian Journal of Urology, Vol.21, No.6, pp. 7548-7553, 2014

    Abstract Introduction: To identify risk factors for PSA bounce (PSAb) and compare characteristics of prostate cancer patients treated with brachytherapy and external beam radiotherapy (EBRT).
    Materials and methods: We identified 362 patients treated for low risk prostate adenocarcinoma (D’Amico criteria) with a follow up time of at least 36 months. Patients received either: 1) EBRT 76 Gy in 38 fractions (n = 58); 2) hypofractionated EBRT, 45 Gy in 9 once-weekly fractions (n = 74); 3) seed brachytherapy (n = 230). PSAb was defined as a rise ≥ 0.2 ng/mL with subsequent return to baseline within the first… More >
