Elbow joint active replication in college pitchers following simulated game throwing: An exploratory study

Manske, Robert C.; Stovak, Mark L.; Cox, Kara; Smith, Barbara S. (Sage Publications, 2010-05-17)

The determination of proprioceptive qualities for the elbow of the college-age pitcher following throwing aids in the understanding of elbow function. The results suggest that a proprioceptive loss may occur after a simulated ...
Electromyographically based rehabilitation exercises for the scapula

Manske, Robert C. (Human Kinetics, 2006-07)

Both the scapulothoracic- and scapulohumeral-muscle complexes are critical to a fully functional and asymptomatic shoulder. Strengthening exercises for these essential muscle groups should not be done in a random pattern, ...
Empirical evidence of the association between the presence of musculoskeletal pain and physical disability in community-dwelling senior citizens

Scudds, Rhonda J.; McD. Robertson, James (Elsevier, 1998-04)

The proportion of people 65 years of age and older who report musculoskeletal pain and physical disability is high. The main objective of this study was to determine whether physical disability was associated with the ...
Evidence based evaluation and treatment of knee osteoarthritis in the aging athlete

Manske, Robert C.; Reiman, Michael P. (Sports Physical Therapy Section, APTA, 2006)

Osteoarthritis of the knee is a very disabling condition that affects millions of patients. Numerous treatment options exist for this progressive condition. Treatment options for physical therapists include therapeutic ...
Evidence-based medicine/practice in sports physical therapy

Manske, Robert C.; Lehecka, B.J. (Sports Physical Therapy Section, 2012-10)

A push for the use of evidence-based medicine and evidence-based practice patterns has permeated most health care disciplines. The use of evidence-based practice in sports physical therapy may improve health care ...
Gait parameters in children with motor disabilities using an electronic walkway system: assessment of reliability

Wondra, Valerie C.; Pitetti, Kenneth H.; Beets, Michael W. (Lippincott Williams & Wilkins, 2007)

The study was designed to determine the reliability of temporal-spatial gait parameters in children with motor disabilities in two conditions: bare foot and with shoes and orthoses.
Heart rate complexity in response to upright tilt in persons with Down syndrome

Agiovlasitis, Stamatis; Baynard, Tracy; Pitetti, Kenneth H.; Fernhall, Bo (Elsevier Science Ltd, 2011-11)

People with Down syndrome (DS) show altered autonomic response to sympathoexcitation. Cardiac autonomic modulation may be examined with heart rate (HR) complexity which is associated uniquely with cardiovascular risk. This ...
Hip functions influence on knee dysfunction: a proximal link to a distal problem

Reiman, Michael P.; Bolgla, Lori A.; Lorenz, Daniel (Human Kinetics, 2009 -02)

The purpose of this commentary is to describe the multifactorial relationships between hip-joint strength, range of motion, kinetics/kinematics, and various knee pathologies, specifically as they relate across an individual's ...
The hips influence on low back pain: a distal link to a proximal problem

Reiman, Michael P.; Weisbach, P. Cody; Glynn, Paul E. (Human Kinetics, 2009-02)

Low back pain (LBP) is a multifactorial dysfunction, with one of the potential contributing factors being the hip joint. Currently, research investigating the examination and conservative treatment of LBP has focused ...
