This study was to perform the kinetic analysis of forward $1\frac{1}{2}$ somersault on the platform diving. Six men's diving players of the Korea national reserve athletes participated in this study. The variables were analyzed response time, velocity, center of mass (COM), angle, center of pressure (COP) and ground reaction force (GRF) of motion. For measure and analysis of this study, used to synchronized to 4 camcorder and 1 force plate, used to the Kwon3D XP (Ver. 4.0, Visol, Korea) and Kwon GRF (Ver. 2.0, Visol, Korea) for analyzed of variables. The results were as follows; Time factor were observed in maximum knee flexion depending on the extent of use at phase 1 of take-off to execute the somersault. This enabled the subject to secure the highest possible body position in space at the moment of jumping to execute the somersault and prepare for the entry into the water with more ease. Regarding the displacement of COM, all subjects showed rightward movement in the lateral displacement during technical execution. Changes in forward and downward movements were observed in the horizontal and vertical displacements, respectively. In terms of angular shift, the shoulder joint angle tended to decrease on average, and the elbow joints showed gradually increasing angles. This finding can be explained by the shift of the coordinate points of body segments around the rotational axis in order to execute the half-bending movement that can be implemented by pulling the lower limb segments toward the trunk using the upper limb segments. The hip joint angles gradually decreased; this accelerated the rotational movement by narrowing the distance to the trunk. Movement-specific shifts in the COP occurred in the front of and vertical directions. Regarding the changes in GRF, which is influenced by the strong compressive load exerted by the supporting feet, efficient aerial movements were executed through a vertical jump, with no energy lost to the lateral GRF.

Objective : The purpose of this study was to investigate the characteristics of Gam-ki (double-arm winding) depending on the emotion being expressed. Gam-ki is one of the basic movements of Korean traditional dance. Method : We selected three Korean traditional dancers who belong to National Dance Company of Korea. They were asked to express four different emotions (anger, joy, sadness, and neutral) while performing Gam-ki. We analyzed elapsed time and time ratio, size of movement, ground reaction forces and ground impulses. Results : During Gam-ki the elapsed time for each phase as well as for one cycle was longest when "sadness" was expressed then followed by "neutral" and then "angry" and "joy." Except for the ankle in/eversion, the ROMs of the lower limb joints seem not to be an emotion-characteristic factor. The ROMs of the upper limb joints were largest when "anger" was expressed. Neck rotation is associated with expressing negative emotions ("angry" and "sadness"). For medial-lateral GRF "angry"> "joy" > "neutral" > "sadness" was in order. Therefore, it can be regarded as a factor indicating the activity of the emotion.

A 58-year-old man, incapable of maintaining oxygen saturation with mechanical ventilation, was admitted to our hospital for veno-venous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) treatment. He was diagnosed with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) due to influenza A pneumonia. His condition stabilized with antibiotics and steroid administration, but weaning from ECMO failed due to post-infectious pulmonary sequelae. On day 84 after admission, he underwent bilateral lung transplantation. In the postoperative phase, he did not regain consciousness even after discontinuation of sedatives for 3 days. However, spontaneous pupillary reflex and eye movements were preserved, while communication and upper and lower limb movements were affected. The nerve conduction study was diagnostic of Guillain-Barré syndrome. He was managed with intravenous immunoglobulins and plasmapheresis. Mild recovery of the facial muscles was seen, but he died 24 days post-surgery due to progressive ARDS and sepsis.

The purpose of the study was to investigate the kinematics between the double collar-tie and double underhook Thai Boxing clinching positions. Ten amateur mixed martial arts athletes executed six knee strikes for both clinching positions with their dominant limb directed towards a target. A standard two-dimensional video motion analysis was conducted, and the results showed a statistical significant difference at the hip joint angle and the angular acceleration of the knee and ankle. Within both clinching positions, there was a statistically significant correlation between the hip and knee joint angles, hip and knee angular velocities, and hip angular acceleration. Between both clinching positions, there was a statistically significant correlation at the knee joint angle, knee angular velocity, and hip angular acceleration. This study demonstrates the importance of the hip and knee joint movements in both clinching positions, which implies the applications of strength training and flexibility at these joints for sports performance and injury prevention. It is suggested that future studies analyzing the non-dominant leg are warranted to fully understand the Thai Boxing clinch.

Angioleiomyoma is a benign soft tissue tumor originating from vascular smooth muscle. We report a case of a 20-year-old student who presented with pain in the right shoulder of 4 years duration. Shoulder movements were pain-free throughout the range of motion except resisted external rotation. Magnetic resonance imaging visualized a well-circumscribed lesion over the infraspinatus tendon. The lesion was surgically removed and sent for histopathological analysis. Morphology and immunohistochemistry results were suggestive of angioleiomyoma. The most common location for such a lesion is the lower limb, with less than 1% being reported in the upper arm, of which an angioleiomyoma of the shoulder is extremely rare.

The purpose of this study was to provide data to increase the success rate of penalty kicks through quantifying the shape of skilled kicks by performing a kinematic analysis on the change of movement during the kicking phase which the goalkeeper uses as a vital clue. Three high definition video cameras(GR-HD1KR, JVC, Japan) were used for the study and 18 reflective markers were attached to the body joints. Corners of the goal, difficult for goalkeepers to block, were set as aims and 1 m by 1.2 m targets were installed. Each subject had five sets of kicks at random, and the analysis was done on the movements that hit the target. Time, speed of the right lower limb's center of mass, joint angle, and angular velocity were chosen as factors and the results of the analysis showed statistical significance. The player taking a penalty kick should train to avoid leaning one's body towards the kicking direction and change the angle of the right foot right before the impact to decide the direction of the ball. The goalkeeper can increase the save success rate by studying the angle of the kicker's body and the right foot as well as the timing of the kick.

목 적 : 주기성 사지운동(periodic limb movement syndrome, PLMS)은 수면 중 팔다리를 비롯한 신체 일부가 불수의적이고 주기적으로 움직이는 현상을 말한다. 여러 연구에 의하면 PLMS는 고혈압의 위험인자로 잘 알려져 있고 각각의 PLMS 이후의 혈압이 20 mm Hg까지 증가한다는 연구도 있다. 본 연구에서는 PLMS가 수면 전후 혈압의 변화에 미치는 영향을 알아보고자 하였다. 방 법 : 야간 수면다원검사상 수면무호흡증이 없고(respiratory distress index < 5), 렘수면행동장애, 기면병 등의 수면장애가 없는 358명(남자 176명, 여자 182명)의 18세 이상 성인을 대상으로 하였다. 이들의 수면다원검사 기록과 수면다원검사 전 저녁 수축기, 이완기 혈압, 수면다원검사 후 아침 수축기, 이완기 혈압, body mass index, 음주, 흡연, 혈압강하제 복용 유무, 벡우울척도(Beck Depression Index), 엡워스졸음척도(Epworth Sleepiness Scale), 피츠버그수면질지수(Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index)를 포함하는 임상 기록들을 수집하였다. 주기성 사지운동지수(Periodic Leg Movement Index) 15를 기준으로 15 이하인 군과 15 초과인 군으로 나누어 비교하였다. 두 군의 임상적 변수 비교는 t-test와 카이제곱 검정을 사용하였으며 repeated measure ANOVA를 사용하여 각 군에서의 검사 전후 혈압 변화 및 두 군의 혈압 변화 양상을 비교하였다. 결 과 : 대상자 전체에서 PLMS가 시간당 15초과한 군이 PLMS 15이하인 군에 비하여 수면 전후 수축기 혈압이 덜 감소하였다. 이러한 결과는 성별과 연령을 보정하였을 때에도 유의하게 나타났으나 BMI, 음주, 흡연, 혈압강하제 사용, sleep efficiency 변수들을 보정하였을 때에는 통계적으로 유의하지 않았다(0.098). 여성에서 두 군간 연령 이외의 다른 변수들은 유의한 차이를 보이지 않았다($49.0{\pm}14.6$세, $57.1{\pm}14.8$세, p = 0.001). 여성의 경우, 두 군 모두 검사 전, 후 수축기 혈압은 유의한 감소를 보였다(p < 0.001). PLMI 15 이하군의 수축기 혈압이 9.7 mm Hg 감소한 것에 비해 PLMI 15 초과군의 수축기 혈압은 2.9 mm Hg 정도만이 감소하여 수면 전, 후 수축기 혈압 변화 양상이 유의하게 차이가 났다($135.2{\pm}20.3mm\;Hg{\rightarrow}125.5{\pm}18.3mm\;Hg$, $133.5{\pm}17.9mm\;Hg{\rightarrow}130.6{\pm}14.8mm\;Hg$, p = 0.010) 이러한 결과는 연령, BMI, 음주, 흡연, 혈압강하제 복용 유무, sleep efficiency 변수를 보정하여도 유의하게 나타났다(p = 0.024). 남성의 경우 두 군 모두에서 수축기 혈압이 수면 전, 후 유의하게 감소하였지만 PLMS에 의한 교호작용(interaction effect)은 나타나지 않았다. 결 론 : PLMS는 수면 중의 정상 혈압 강하 패턴의 감소와 유의한 연관성이 있었으며 혈압과 관련된 임상 변수를 보정하였을 때에는 여성에서만 유의한 연관성을 보였다. 여성에서 PLMS와 관련하여 발생할 수 있는 고혈압 및 심혈관 질환의 임상적 의미를 확인할 수 있었다.

Objective : The purpose of this study was to compare the kinematic data of the horizontal rotation movements of shoulder, hip, knee during two-handed backhand drive stroke according to two different ball directions. Methods : The kinematic variables were analyzed such as the joint angles of the lower body, horizontal rotation angles of the shoulder, hip, inter-knee segment, body twist angle and difference in angle of forward swing. Two-handed backhand drive stroke was analyzed through a three-dimensional motion analysis. The collected data were analyzed by a paired t-test, and the statistical significant value was set at ${\alpha}=.05$. Results : The findings of this study were as follows; First, there was no difference in the total angles of lower limb joints from the forward swing position to impact posterior. Second, there was no difference in the horizontal rotation angles of E1 shoulder, hip, and E2 shoulder but the horizontal rotation angles of E1 knee, E2 hip, knee, E3, and E4 shoulder, hip, and knee were different in all events. Third, there was no difference in the body twist angle of the maximum horizontal rotation. In addition, there was no difference in the angle of the body twist by the ball direction in the shoulder-hip, the hip-knee and the shoulder-knee. Conclusion : Horizontal rotation angle determines ball directions.

Objective: The purpose of this systematic review and meta-analysis was to investigate age-related bimanual coordination functions in older adults. Method: Thirteen studies that compared bimanual coordination functions in older adults with those in healthy young adults qualified for this meta-analysis. We additionally categorized 21 total comparisons from the 13 qualified studies into two types of task-related moderator variables: (1) kinematic versus kinetic movements and (2) symmetry versus asymmetry movements. Results: Random effects model meta-analysis found that older adults revealed significant bimanual coordination impairments as compared with young adults (Hedges's g = -0.771; p < .0001; I² = 74.437%). We additionally confirmed specific bimanual coordination deficits using two moderator variables: 1) kinematic (Hedges's g = -0.884; p < .0001; I² = 0.000%) and kinetic (Hedges's g = -0.666; p = .023; I² = 86.170%). 2) symmetry (Hedges's g = -0.712; p = .001; I² = 74.291%) and asymmetry (Hedges's g = -0.817; p < .0001; I² = 76.322%). The moderator variable analysis indicated older adults indicated bimanual coordination deficits in the upper extremities than healthy young adults while performing kinematic bimanual coordination tasks and asymmetry coordination tasks. Conclusion: These findings suggest that developing motor rehabilitation programs based on asymmetric bimanual movement task for enhancing interlimb coordination functions of older adults may be crucial for increasing their independence in everyday activities. Given that elderly revealed the deficits in lower extremities coordination when older adults perform gait, posture, and balance, future studies should estimate lower limb coordination functions in elderly people.

두 발을 번갈아 옮기며 몸을 앞으로 움직이는 단순한 동작의 반복으로 보이는 보행이란 과정은 실제 인체 내의 대부분의 근육 및 인대, 뼈가 연관되어 이루어지는 복잡한 행동이다. 신체 일부가 소실된 하퇴 절단자의 경우 생체조직이 온전히 보전되어 있는 일반인과는 달리 남은 생체 부위와 의지의 공학적인 성능에만 의존해 보행을 해야 한다는 어려운 상황에 직면하게 된다. 따라서 하퇴절단자를 위한 하퇴의지는 우선 환자가 기본적인 보행이 가능케 함과 동시에 최대한 복잡한 지면 상태에 적응할 수 있도록 설계가 되어야 한다. 원활한 보행을 위해서는 배/저굴 방향의 발목의 회전이 매우 중요하고 고르지 못한 지면 상태를 극복하기 위해서는 내/외전 방향의 족부의 회전 기능이 요구된다. 최근 생체역학적인 연구를 접목한 다양한 하퇴의지가 개발되고 있으나, 이러한 고가의 고성능 하퇴의지의 경우 주로 활동성이 높은 하지절단 환자들에 초점이 맞춰져 있다. 본 연구에서는 하퇴의지 착용자의 대다수인 활동성이 낮은 K2 레벨의 환자들을 위한 하퇴의지를 개발했다. 기본적인 보행 능력 향상을 위해서 배/저굴 방향으로의 회전이 가능한 유압식 발목을 개발했고, 이를 통해서 배/저굴 방향으로 각각 $2.5^{\circ}$와 $4^{\circ}$의 회전이 가능함을 확인했다. 또한 수동 조절이 가능한 유압 노즐을 탑재해 환자 개개인에 적합한 발목 회전 저항력을 설정할 수 있도록 설계했다. 내/외전 방향으로의 족부의 회전이 가능하도록 이중고무 방식의 중간재를 삽입해 각각 $3.6^{\circ}$와 $4.1^{\circ}$의 회전이 가능하도록 설계되어 측경사나 작은 장애물들을 극복할 수 있도록 제작했다. 본 연구를 통해 개발된 하퇴의지는 K2 레벨의 하퇴절단자들이 일상생활 중에 겪게 되는 다양한 지면 환경을 극복하는데 도움을 줄 것이다.
