目的 探究躯干控制对青年群体亚洲蹲和西方蹲时下肢运动生物力学特征的影响,为深蹲训练的应用和推广提供实证性依据。方法 24名健康男性青年大学生在带杆、无杆控制条件下进行亚洲蹲和西方蹲,运用红外光点运动捕捉系统和三维测力台采集其下肢运动学和动力学特征。通过Cortex-642.6.2软件,根据欧拉角方法计算获得下肢三维角度,运用逆动力学方法得到三维力矩。通过2×2重复设计的双因素方差分析检验躯干控制和深蹲姿势对下肢运动特征的影响。结果 躯干控制和深蹲姿势对运动学和动力学参数均无显著性交互作用(P>0.05)。西方蹲具有较大的膝关节屈曲角、髌股关节接触力峰值、髋膝伸展力矩峰值之比,较小的踝关节背屈角、髋关节屈曲角(P<0.05)。带杆深蹲具有较大的踝关节背屈角、髌股关节接触力峰值和髋关节屈曲角,较小的膝关节屈曲角、髋膝伸展力矩峰值之比(P<0.05)。结论 西方蹲有助于训练伸髋肌群肌力,亚洲蹲则有助于训练伸膝肌群肌力。西方蹲髌股关节接触力峰值显著大于亚洲蹲,故推荐髌股关节痛患者采用亚洲蹲。带杆深蹲可补偿人体平衡,建议由于踝关节背屈活动范围受限或胫骨前肌无力人群可以考虑进行带...  相似文献

目的 分析太极拳转体与弓步动作中下肢关节活动顺序性、肌肉力表现和肌肉激活程度的差异,揭示太极拳转体动作的特征。 方法 募集 20 名练习时长超过 3 年的健康太极拳练习者,采用三维运动捕捉系统、测力台和表面肌电同步采集转体与弓步两种动作运动学、动力学和肌肉激活信息,并通过 OpenSim 仿真软件获取下肢肌力。结果 与弓步相比,转体动作髋、踝关节外旋幅度显著增大;膝关节外展和外旋力矩显著增大,股二头肌、半腱肌和内外侧腓肠肌峰值肌力显著增强,股二头肌、内外侧腓肠肌峰值肌力时刻显著提前,而股内外侧肌和胫骨前肌峰值肌力显著减小,胫骨前肌肌力最早达到峰值;股二头肌、股内外侧肌和内侧腓肠肌的平均激活水平和激活时间显著增加。 结论 太极拳转体动作由踝、髋关节依次转动组成,肌肉力表现的独特性在于重心两次转移致使支撑腿内外侧肌力曲线呈双峰型,因为全足着地延迟方式引发了腓肠肌与股四头肌激活顺序和肌肉平均激活水平改变。研究结果提示全足着地延迟方式具有调节肌肉激活顺序的作用,合理利用有助于提升临床康复效果。  相似文献

通过分析在意外滑移恢复和跌倒两种情况下人体髋、膝、踝3个关节不同肌肉群肌电信号的反应差异,研究髋、膝和踝3个关节运动对滑后恢复平衡的作用。试验招募10名年轻的健康受试者,要求其沿着指定的直线步道行走,并使其在行走过程中发生意外滑移。通过分析所测得的肌电信号,得出不同肌肉群的肌肉激活延迟时间、肌电信号峰值、到达峰值时间、协同收缩率等参数。研究结果显示,恢复平衡和跌倒之间肌肉激活延迟时间并没有显著性差异(P>0.05),而股内侧肌的肌电峰值分别为70.2±9.8和89.0±12.7,有显著性差异(P<0.05),胫骨前肌和半腱肌的距峰时间有显著性差异,P值分别为0.038、0.030(P<0.05),股二头肌距峰时间无显著性差异(P=0.062>0.05)。上述结果表明,在人体发生意外滑移后,对重新恢复人体平衡起作用的下肢关节肌肉激活时刻差别不大,但针对不同的关节运动,其肌肉伸缩程度以及肌肉做功不尽相同。根据肌肉所属关节及实验数据可知:增大踝关节背屈运动、膝关节屈曲运动和髋关节的伸展运动,对滑移后的平衡恢复作用显著。研究结果可以更好地揭示人体步态滑跌行为的内在机理,为各工作场所建立防滑策略提供有效的准则。  相似文献

背景:膝关节活动受限是一种比较常见的损伤后表现特征,但是对于膝关节活动受限下的肌肉协同有待研究。目的:研究单侧膝关节屈曲受限与正常运动下肢肌肉协同的异同。方法:招募20名健康成年人(男性12名,女性8名)作为受试者,分别采集屈曲受限条件下与无屈曲受限条件下自然行走的下肢表面肌电信号。通过非负矩阵分解算法从受限侧(右腿)的10块肌肉的表面肌电信号中提取肌肉协同,利用单因素方差分析研究在不同条件行走的步态参数显著差异。结果与结论:①屈曲受限条件下,受试者进行行走任务时肌肉协同数量减少,表现出不同的肌肉协调模式控制并且招募新的肌肉协同单元;随着协同模块的减少,内侧腓肠肌、外侧腓肠肌和比目鱼肌激活时间从支撑相向摆动相偏移的越明显;主要依靠股直肌、股内侧肌、股外侧肌和阔筋膜张肌进行代偿,使其在激活水平上表现的异常活跃,同时受限侧表现出划圈、提胯等动作,因此受限后主要以受限侧髋关节代偿;②屈曲受限条件下,受试者受限侧和非受限侧在步态参数(频率、步速、步态周期和支撑相占比)方面对比受限前均存在显著差异(P<0.05),同时非受限侧单腿支撑时间相较于受限前明显增大(P<0.01),受限侧支撑相占比和单腿支撑时间显著小于非受限侧(P<0.01);③因此,膝关节屈曲运动减弱可被认为是导致下肢肢体内协调受损的关键因素,研究结果对运动功能的定量分析以及人体下肢康复指导具有意义,并为了解运动功能受损背后的神经肌肉控制机制提供重要的见解。  相似文献

背景:肌内效贴扎作为一种运动防护手段已被广泛应用,但作为纠正侧切动作时下肢生物力学异常变化手段的研究,其作用尚不明确。目的:对比受试者膝关节在肌内效贴扎、安慰剂贴扎及空白对照情况下,完成侧切动作时下肢运动学、动力学特征的变化。方法:招募39名篮球专项男性大学生为受试者,每位受试者分别在肌内效贴扎、安慰剂贴扎以及不进行任何贴扎情况下进行测试。采取力学矫正的贴扎方式对受试者优势侧膝关节进行贴扎干预。选取4.5-5.5 m/s的助跑速度完成45°侧切动作,并运用三维动态捕捉系统及测力台同步采集运动学及动力学数据。选取初始触地时刻、地面反作用力峰值时刻的运动学及动力学参数进行数据分析。采用SPSS 27.0软件对测试数据进行统计学分析。结果与结论:①运动学指标:肌内效贴条件下与无贴扎及安慰剂贴扎相比,初始触地时刻髋关节外展、膝关节外翻角度显著减小(P<0.05);侧向地面反作用力峰值时刻,髋关节外展、膝关节外翻及踝关节跖屈角度显著减小(P<0.05),膝关节屈曲角度显著增加(P<0.05)。②动力学指标:与无贴扎相比,肌内效贴扎及安慰剂贴扎条件下均可显著减小初始触地时刻髋关节外展、外旋力矩及膝关节外翻、外旋力矩(P<0.05),显著减小垂直地面反作用力峰值、水平向后地面反作用力峰值(P<0.05);与无贴扎及安慰剂贴扎相比,肌内效贴扎可显著减小侧向地面反作用力峰值(P<0.05)。③结果表明,对膝关节进行肌内效贴扎可在一定程度上改善篮球专项大学生在完成侧切动作时与下肢损伤风险因素相关的部分运动学、动力学指标,可能对预防侧切过程中损伤的发生有一定积极作用;此外,膝关节安慰剂贴扎与肌内效贴扎在部分指标变化方面的作用趋势较为一致,提示肌内效贴扎的作用机制可能存在安慰剂效应。  相似文献

BackgroundThe purpose of this study was to identify sex differences in lower limb kinematics, kinetics, and muscle activation patterns between individuals with osteoarthritis and healthy controls during a two-legged squat.MethodThirty OA (15 females) and 30 healthy (15 females) participants performed three 2-legged squats. Sagittal and frontal plane hip, knee, and ankle kinematics and kinetics were calculated. Two-way ANOVAs (Sex X OA Status) were used to characterize differences in squatting strategies between sexes and between those with and without knee OA.ResultsA greater decrease in sagittal hip, knee, and ankle range of motion and knee joint power was observed in the OA participants compared to the healthy controls. Females with OA had significantly reduced hip and knee adduction angles compared to the healthy females and males with OA. Females also had decreased hip power, hip flexion, and hip adduction moments and knee adduction moments compared to their male counterparts, with the greatest deficits observed in the females with OA. Females with OA also had the highest magnitude of muscle activation for the quadriceps, hamstrings, and gastrocnemius throughout the squat, while males with OA showed increased activation of the vastus lateralis and medial gastrocnemius compared to the healthy males.ConclusionsOA significantly altered biomechanics and neuromuscular control during the squat, with males employing a hip-dominant strategy, allowing them to achieve a greater lower limb range of motion.  相似文献

Researchers frequently use the deep knee squat as a motor task in order to evaluate the kinematic performance after total knee arthroplasty. Many authors reported about the kinematics of a normal squatting motion, however, little is known on what the influence of aging is. Twenty-two healthy volunteers in various age groups (range 21-75 years) performed a deep knee squat activity while undergoing motion analysis using an optical tracking system. The influence of aging was evaluated with respect to kinematics of the trunk, hip, knee and ankle joints. Older subjects required significantly more time to perform a deep squat, especially during the descending phase. They also had more knee abduction and delayed peak knee flexion. Older subjects were slower in descend than ascend during the squat. Although older subjects had a trend towards less maximal flexion and less internal rotation of the knee compared to younger subjects, this difference was not significant. Older subjects also showed a trend towards more forward leaning of the trunk, resulting in increased hip flexion and anterior thoracic tilt. This study confirmed that some aspects of squat kinematics vary significantly with age, and that the basic methodology employed here can successfully detect these age-related trends. Older subjects had more abduction of the knee joint, and this may indicate the load distribution of the medial and lateral condyles could be different amongst ages. Age-matched control data are therefore required whenever the performance of an implant is evaluated during a deep knee squat.  相似文献

背景:侧向跨步切入动作是运动领域最常见的进攻技术,这显著增加了运动员膝关节受伤的风险,但目前相关侧向跨步动作的生物力学表现策略及下肢关节负荷特征并不十分清楚。目的:选择大学女子甲组篮球、足球运动员进行侧向跨步切入下肢动作策略,进行生物力学测试,并分析下肢关节的运动学及动力学参数,从而为运动员及教练员预防下肢伤害,尤其是膝关节十字韧带损伤提供重要参考。方法:选择某高校女子甲组足球及篮球各12名运动员作为研究对象,利用三维测力台及运动图像拍摄系统同步获取其侧向跨步切入动作的相关运动学及动力学参数,并运用SPSS 21.0分析软件对相关数据进行处理分析。该试验方案经天津体育学院伦理委员会批准。结果与结论:①足球运动员有较大的着地瞬间踝关节跖屈角度及髋关节外展角度、最大踝关节外翻角度、膝关节屈曲及内旋角度、膝关节屈曲及内旋角度变化量;②足球运动员有较大的踝关节外旋与髋关节内收力矩峰值,篮球运动员则有较大的踝关节跖屈力矩峰值;③篮球运动员有较小的前后分力制动第一及第二峰值、垂直分力第一峰值及较大的前后分力推蹬力峰值;④结果表明,跨步切入动作过程中,足球运动员习惯于前足着地方式进行急停,进而产生较高的地面反作用力,并增加膝关节屈曲角度进行缓冲,同时有较大的踝关节外翻角度及膝关节内旋角度,而篮球运动员在切入过程中膝关节屈曲角度较少,不利于下肢关节对地面反作用力的缓冲,并进而增加前十字韧带损伤风险。  相似文献

Patellofemoral pain (PFP) is a common complaint among female runners. The etiology for PFP is frequently associated with increased patellofemoral joint stress (PFJS) and altered hip and knee joint kinematics during running. However, whether PFJS during running is increased among runners with PFP is unknown. The primary aim of this study was to compare PFJS during running among females with and without PFP. We also compared hip and knee transverse plane kinematics during running due to their potential influence on patellofemoral contact area and PFJS. Three dimensional hip and knee running kinematics and kinetics were obtained from 20 females with PFP and 20 females with no pain. Patellofemoral joint stress during running was estimated using patellofemoral contact area and a sagittal plane patellofemoral joint model previously described. Patellofemoral joint stress, PFJS-time integral, and hip and knee transverse plane kinematics at the time of impact peak and peak ground reaction force were compared between groups using a multivariate analysis of variance. The results show that peak PFJS and PFJS-time integral were similar between groups. Peak knee flexion angle and net knee extension moment were not different between groups. However, females with PFP demonstrated hip internal rotation that was 6° greater (P=0.04) when ground reaction forces were greatest. The extent these results are influenced by compensations for pain is unclear. However, if increased PFJS contributes to the etiology or exacerbation of PFP, interventions to minimize altered transverse plane hip kinematics may be indicated among runners who demonstrate this characteristic.  相似文献

Vaginal marking is a stereotyped scent marking behavior in female Syrian hamsters used to attract male hamsters for mating. Although the modulation of vaginal marking by hormones and odors is well understood, the motor control of this proceptive reproductive behavior remains unknown. Therefore, we used X-ray videography to visualize individual bone movements during vaginal marking. Kinematic analyses revealed several consistent motor patterns of vaginal marking. Despite exhibiting a diversity of trial-to-trial non-marking behaviors (e.g. locomotor stepping), we found that lowering and raising the pelvis consistently corresponded with coordinated flexion and extension cycles of the hip, knee, and tail, suggesting that these movements are fundamental to vaginal marking behavior. Surprisingly, we observed only small changes in the angles of the pelvic and sacral regions, suggesting previous reports of pelvic rotation during vaginal marking may need to be reconsidered. From these kinematic data, we inferred that vaginal marking is primarily due to the actions of hip and knee extensor muscles of the trailing leg working against gravity to support the weight of the animal as it controls the descent of the pelvis to the ground. The cutaneous trunci muscle likely mediates the characteristic flexion of the tail. Interestingly, this tail movement occurred on the same time scale as the joint kinematics suggesting possible synergistic recruitment of these muscle groups. These data therefore provide new targets for future studies examining the peripheral control of female reproductive behaviors.  相似文献

We developed a three-dimensional, computational biomechanical model of a juvenile Nile crocodile (Crocodylus niloticus) pelvis and hindlimb, composed of 47 pelvic limb muscles, to investigate muscle function. We tested whether crocodiles, which are known to use a variety of limb postures during movement, use limb orientations (joint angles) that optimise the moment arms (leverages) or moment-generating capacities of their muscles during different limb postures ranging from a high walk to a sprawling motion. We also describe the three-dimensional (3D) kinematics of the crocodylian hindlimb during terrestrial locomotion across an instrumented walkway and a treadmill captured via X-ray Reconstruction of Moving Morphology (biplanar fluoroscopy; ‘XROMM’). We reconstructed the 3D positions and orientations of each of the hindlimb bones and used dissection data for muscle lines of action to reconstruct a focal, subject-specific 3D musculoskeletal model. Motion data for different styles of walking (a high, crouched, bended and two types of sprawling motion) were fed into the 3D model to identify whether any joints adopted near-optimal poses for leverage across each of the behaviours. We found that (1) the hip adductors and knee extensors had their largest leverages during sprawling postures and (2) more erect postures typically involved greater peak moment arms about the hip (flexion-extension), knee (flexion) and metatarsophalangeal (flexion) joints. The results did not fully support the hypothesis that optimal poses are present during different locomotory behaviours because the peak capacities were not always reached around mid-stance phase. Furthermore, we obtained few clear trends for isometric moment-generating capacities. Therefore, perhaps peak muscular leverage in Nile crocodiles is instead reached either in early/late stance or possibly during swing phase or other locomotory behaviours that were not studied here, such as non-terrestrial movement. Alternatively, our findings could reflect a trade-off between having to execute different postures, meaning that hindlimb muscle leverage is not optimised for any singular posture or behaviour. Our model, however, provides a comprehensive set of 3D estimates of muscle actions in extant crocodiles which can form a basis for investigating muscle function in extinct archosaurs.  相似文献

Reed-Jones RJ  Vallis LA 《The Knee》2008,15(2):117-124
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Descent of a ramp has been shown to induce large anterior shear forces on the knee joint. Compensatory muscle responses observed in individuals following an anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury are believed to be adopted for the purpose of reducing these forces at the knee, in the absence of the mechanical restraint previously provided by the ACL. As such, examining the kinematics and muscle responses of ACL deficient individuals during ramp descent may provide further insight into strategies used by this population to compensate for anterior shear forces at the knee. METHODS: Eight ACL deficient individuals were studied, in comparison to a healthy CONTROL group (N=8), during the descent of a 20 degrees ramp. Kinematics and electromyography were recorded for the injured lower limb of ACLD and matched limb of healthy control individuals. RESULTS: ACLD individuals produced altered knee kinematics at heel contact only. Knee motion through stance and swing were similar to CONTROL individuals. ACLD individuals produced significantly greater vastus lateralis and gastrocnemius total muscle activity, but decreased total biceps femoris activity. No significant differences were observed for the timing of peak muscle activity or the magnitude at this point between ACLD and CONTROL. DISCUSSION AND CONCLUSION: Greater total muscle activity of vastus lateralis implies that greater force contributions from this muscle were used by ACLD in comparison to CONTROL in response to the ramp. These observations reinforce that quadriceps avoidance is not used by ACLD individuals to reduce anterior shear forces at the knee joint. Rather, vastus lateralis may be used to reduce internal tibial rotation in extreme loading situations.  相似文献

Fast voluntary trunk flexion movements in standing: motor patterns   总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4  
The electromyographical (EMG) activity was studied during voluntary flexion movements of the trunk in erect standing man. The movements were performed at maximal velocity with successively increasing amplitude to cover the whole range of motion. The EMG activity was recorded from agonist-antagonist pairs of muscles at the ankle, knee, hip and trunk. The angular displacements at the corresponding joints were recorded using a Selspot optoelectronic system. The duration of initiating activity in prime movers (rectus abdominis and rectus femoris) as well as time to onset of activity in muscles braking the primary movement (erector spinae, gluteus maximus and hamstrings) were highly correlated with amplitude, duration, peak velocity and time to peak velocity of the movement (r = 0.59-0.91). The corresponding correlations for peak acceleration and deceleration of the movement were low (r = 0.03-0.38), indicating that acceleration and deceleration of a movement was not coded in the temporal aspects of the EMG. Onset of activity in rectus abdominis and rectus femoris as well as an early appearing burst of activity in vastus lateralis were invariant in relation to start of movement over the whole movement range. In the initial phase of a fast trunk flexion, activity in tibialis anterior appeared successively earlier with increasing movement amplitude. This resulted in a changed order of activation for the muscles from proximal to distal (rectus abdominis first) to distal to proximal (tibialis anterior first). Two different forms of associated postural adjustments are present during a fast trunk flexion, one early fast knee flexion and a later slower angle extension. Prior to knee flexion, no activity was recorded from muscles flexing at the knee implying that some other force must create a flexing torque around the knee. It is suggested that activity in rectus abdominis initiating the primary movement also initiates knee flexion through the upward pulling of pelvis. This would be possible since rectus femoris stabilizes the pelvis in relation to the leg, allowing the force in rectus abdominis to be transmitted below the hip joint and act extending around the ankle joint. However, when tibialis anterior is activated it stabilizes the shank which in turn will cause a knee flexion controlled by a lengthening contraction in vastus lateralis. During the subsequent ankle extension activity appears in lateral gastrocnemius and soleus causing the associated postural adjustment at the ankle. It can be concluded that activation of postural muscles prior to prime mover muscles is not always necessary.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS)  相似文献
