This study compared water-based rehabilitation to standard land-based exercises for people who had ACL knee surgery. Twenty participants completed six sessions over 2-3 weeks. Researchers measured walking patterns, muscle function, and knee symptoms to see if the water program of…

This study looked at how adding a second task (like mental or physical activity) changes walking patterns in people with long-term neck pain compared to healthy adults. 42 participants (21 with neck pain, 21 without) wore a small sensor to measure their gait. The goal was to unde…

This study looked at how flatfoot (pes planus) changes the way people walk on flat ground and uphill. Researchers measured walking speed, step length, and hip movement in 30 healthy adults aged 18–35. The goal was to better understand these changes and help design better rehab pr…

This study looked at 40 healthy women ages 18-35 to see if different phases of the menstrual cycle affect walking patterns, pelvic movement, and sleep quality. Participants were tested during early follicular, ovulation, and luteal phases using a special walkway sensor and a slee…

This study looked at how different shoe heel heights affect walking patterns in 30 healthy adults aged 18-35. Participants walked barefoot, with 2 cm heels, and with 6 cm heels while sensors measured their gait and pelvic movements. The goal was to understand biomechanical change…

This study looked at how neck pain changes the way people walk and control their movements. Researchers tested 60 adults—some with chronic neck pain and some without—while they performed walking tasks. The goal was to understand how neck problems affect balance and coordination d…

This study collected walking data from 110 healthy children aged 3 to 15 to create a reference database for a new gait index called Ker-EGI Kids. Researchers placed 28 stickers on each child's legs to record muscle activity while they walked. The goal is to establish what normal …

This pilot study looked at how distraction (like listening to something) changes walking patterns and pain in people with chronic low back pain. Sixteen participants walked on a treadmill at different speeds, with and without distraction. The goal was to see if distraction could …

This study tested a new 'Mobility Toolkit' to see how well it measures walking recovery in 244 adults aged 18-60 who had surgery for serious leg fractures. Participants used the toolkit during clinic visits over a year. The goal was to see if the toolkit is easy to use and accura…
