Abstract:

The number of exoskeletons providing load-lifting assistance has significantly increased over the last decade. In this field, to take full advantage of active exoskeletons and provide appropriate assistance to users, it is essential to develop control systems that are able to reliably recognize and classify the users’ movement when performing various lifting tasks. To this end, the movement-decoding algorithm should work robustly with different users and recognize different lifting techniques. Currently, there are no studies presenting methods to classify different lifting techniques in real time for applications with lumbar exoskeletons. We designed a real-time two-step algorithm for a portable hip exoskeleton that can detect the onset of the lifting movement and classify the technique used to accomplish the lift, using only the exoskeleton-embedded sensors. To evaluate the performance of the proposed algorithm, 15 healthy male subjects participated in two experimental sessions in which they were asked to perform lifting tasks using four different techniques (namely, squat lifting, stoop lifting, left-asymmetric lifting, and right-asymmetric lifting) while wearing an active hip exoskeleton. Five classes (the four lifting techniques plus the class “no lift”) were defined for the classification model, which is based on a set of rules (first step) and a pattern recognition algorithm (second step). Leave-one-subject-out cross-validation showed a recognition accuracy of 99.34 ± 0.85%, and the onset of the lift movement was detected within the first 121 to 166 ms of movement.

Abstract:

Abstract Background and Purpose. Lifting technique could, through its effect on low back loading, affect the risk of developing low back pain. In this study, 2 lifting techniques (a straddle technique and a 1-leg kneeling technique), which aimed to reduce low back loading by placing one leg beside a load, were compared with stoop lifting and squat lifting with respect to their effect on low back loading. Subjects. Twelve men with no history of low back pain participated in the study. Methods. The subjects lifted wide and narrow 20-kg boxes from 2 initial hand heights. With measured kinematics, ground reaction forces, and electromyography, 3-dimensional spinal forces were calculated. Results. When the subjects lifted a narrow box from a 290-mm height, peak L5–S1 compression forces were 5,060 (SD=827), 3,980 (SD=701), 4,208 (SD=762), and 4,719 (SD=1,015) N for the stoop, squat, straddle, and kneeling techniques, respectively. When the subjects lifted a wide box from 50 mm, spinal compression forces were much higher and distributed differently over lifting techniques: 5,926 (SD=610), 6,868 (SD=924), 6,472 (SD=1,042), and 6,064 (SD=968) N, respectively. Discussion and Conclusion. The authors conclude that no single lifting technique can be advised for all lifting conditions.

Abstract:

A comparison between semi-squat and squat techniques was made for floor to knuckle height lifting using maximum acceptable weight (MAW), ratings of perceived exertion (RPE) and heart rate. Semi-squat lifting resulted in greater MAW with lower RPE and lower heart rate compared to squat lifting. Discomfort was most commonly reported in knees/quadriceps with squat lifting. Twelve of the 13 subjects preferred the semi-squat technique. The results provide evidence that the semi-squat technique may have benefits over the squat technique for lifting a medium sized box from floor to knuckle height.

Abstract:

Purpose: Weight of the load which is to be lifted and its characteristics are considered to be important risk factors for low back disorders (LBD) among manual material handlers. Determining the amount of load a person can lift is important in minimizing the incidence of LBD. The objective of this study was to determine the lifting capacity, adopting two lifting techniques at two levels among male construction workers using progressive isoinertial lifting evaluation (PILE). Methods: One hundred and forty-three male construction workers with minimum 1 year of work experience and without any acute illnesses participated in this study. Workers were advised to perform PILE using two lifting techniques (stoop and squat) and at two lifting levels (waist and shoulder). Results: The mean lifting capacity was found to be 24.50 [Formula: see text] 5.10, 21.20 [Formula: see text] 5.54, 19.76 [Formula: see text] 4.08 and 17.25 [Formula: see text] 5.18 kg, respectively, for floor to waist-stoop, floor to waist-squat, floor to shoulder-stoop and floor to shoulder-squat categories. The lifting capacity decreased by 19.40% and 18.54% when the vertical distance was increased from waist to shoulder adopting stoop and squat techniques, respectively. Conclusion: Lifting capacity for construction workers has been determined using PILE, and it was found to be more during stoop technique of lifting at floor to waist level.

Abstract:

This work accomplishes a comparative study between two distinct image compression techniques, namely the Lifting technique and the Principal Components Analysis (PCA), in order to determine what of these two approaches is more appropriate for cutting tool wear images analysis. Lifting and Principal Components Analysis were applied in original images of a cutting tool for producing a low resolution version, while keeping the more important details of the image. The low-loss image compression quality provided by these techniques was expressed in terms of the compression factor (ρ), the Mean Square Error (MSE) and the Peak Signal-to-Noise Rate (PSNR) provided by the image compression process. The tests were accomplished using the high-performance language for technical computing MATLAB®, and the results shown that the PCA technique presented the best values of PSNR with low compression rates. However, with high values of compression rates the lifting technique gave the highest PSNR.

Abstract:

Abstract Objectives: 1) create metrics for lifting techniques and transferring mechanisms, 2) calibrate sensors for data collection 3) identify potential injurious posture among home health aides (HHAs) while transferring patients. Participants: 7 HHAs and a physical therapist. Interview and sensor data were collected. Outcome variables included improper lifting techniques and improper body mechanisms. Obesity of HHAs was associated with worse scores of body mechanics (p < 0.0001), while fear of injury with better body mechanics (p < 0.0001). GEE results identified that twisting the spine during transfers (OR = 6.3; 95% CI: 1.09–36.7) and not using a wide support base when lifting from supine to sitting (OR= 6.0, 95% CI: 2.03–17.7) were associated with improper lifting technique and body mechanics. Results show it is viable to use sensor technology to collect HHAs’ data to design intervention for injury prevention. A larger-scale study is needed to validate the results.

Abstract:

Right after teeth extraction in posterior regions, there is a following process that consists of physiological resorption and nonfunctional atrophy of the remained alveolar bone ridge. That also impacts the quality on the quality and quantity of the remained bone tissue, what later makes the implant incorporation and the prosthetic restoration much harder and complicated than usual it is. In the posterior region of the upper jaw additional complication of the prosthetic restoration process causes the existing of paranasal sinus that is located right in the body of the upper jaw maxilla. It’s post extraction pneumatization reduces the height of bone tissue what causes difficulties in dental implants placement. The aim of this survey is to evaluate the clinical outcome and the efficiency of the most often used sinus lifting techniques. Were analyzed totally 78 published studies that were done in the last 12 years. The study is made on narrative review of published articles that were investigating the related subject. Research was done by using the most common data bases: NCBI (US National Library of Medicine), Emedicine, PubMEd, Webmd. By using the open method for sinus lifting there needs to be formed lateral window in the bone tissue first by elevating the mucoperiosteal flap on the vestibular surface of the maxillary alveolar ridge and after that creating iatrogenic fenestration on the cortical lamina without perforating the sinus membrane. After the sinus membrane is being separated, the following step is augmentation. For this step are used four different types of bone substituent: autogenous, allogeneic, xenogeneic bone graft and synthetic alloplastic materials. The closed method for sinus lifting is performed after previous created place for the future implant in the residual alveolar bone ridge in the maxilla, after that with special instruments a perforation is being made in the bone floor of the maxillary sinus and carefully elevating the sinus membrane up for a few millimeters. In the created space a bone graft material is being placed and at the same time a dental implant is being applied. From the gathered results, both of the techniques are considered to be effective, in all of the followed cases the implant placements were successful with high rate of postoperative osseointegration, the healing period was without complications and also successful. There was no prosthetic failure in any case. From this survey the final conclusion is that both of the techniques are successful when it comes to sinus lifting. Very important is to have a qualitative imaging like computed tomography or roentgen before placing the implants to be able to estimate the bone volume and height. If the residual bone height is less than 5 mm the survival rate of the future implants is not guaranteed.

Abstract:

BACKGROUND: Development and introduction of minimally invasive lifting techniques is considered a demanding and relevant objective of contemporary dermatocosmetology as these techniques result in nonsurgical lifting with minimal disruption of facial harmony due to the activation of a maximal number of key anatomic landmarks following the simultaneous insertion of lifting threads and hyaluronic acid fillers. AIMS: To study the clinical efficacy and safety of minimally invasive lifting technique and filling up of the tissue volume deficiency with the combination of thread lifting from the temporal approach and hyaluronic acid filler augmentation. MATERIALS AND METHODS: The study group included 193 female patients (mean age 41.3 8.5 years) with gravitational ptosis of the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd degrees. Group 1 (main) comprised 42 (21.8%) patients who underwent lifting by the method of implantation of 12 threads with shaped polydioxanone spikes DG-Lift and injection of 2 ml of hyaluronic acid biphasic filler. Group 2 (comparison) comprised 64 (33.2%) female patients who underwent lifting using only 1220 polydioxanone DG-Lift threads. Group 3 (comparison) comprised 87 (45%) female patients who received tissue volumization with 48 ml of biphasic hyaluronic acid filler in each case. RESULTS: A total of 82%, 59%, and 48% of patients in groups 1, 2, and 3, respectively, noted the optimal cosmetic result and full satisfaction with the result according to the Global Aesthetic Improvement Scale. The incidence of complications in group 1 (6.4%) was lower than that in group 2 (9.1%) and group 3 (17.7%). This is due to low invasive nature and lower tissue traumatization with the use of fewer fillers and threads to obtain optimal cosmetic effect. CONCLUSION: The proposed technique of thread lifting with biodegradable threads DG-Lift from the temporal approach combined with tissue volumization with hyaluronic acid fillers is safe and significantly effective for patients with gravitational ptosis of the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd degrees.

Abstract:

We employ techniques from the theory of disintegration of measures to study the Lifting Problem for commuting $n$-tuples of subnormal weighted shifts. We obtain a new necessary condition for the existence of a lifting, and generate new pathology associated with bringing together the Berger measures associated to each individual weighted shift. For subnormal $2$-variable weighted shifts, we then find the precise relation between the Berger measure of the pair and the Berger measures of the shifts associated to horizontal rows and vertical columns of weights.

Abstract:

Manual lifting is one of the common practices used in the industries to transport or move objects to a desired place. Nowadays, even though mechanized equipment is widely available, manual lifting is still considered as an essential way to perform material handling task. Improper lifting strategies may contribute to musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs), where overexertion contributes as the highest factor. To overcome this problem, electromyography (EMG) signal is used to monitor the workers’ muscle condition and to find maximum lifting load, lifting height and number of repetitions that the workers are able to handle before experiencing fatigue to avoid overexertion. Past researchers have introduced several EMG processing techniques and different EMG features that represent fatigue indices in time, frequency, and time-frequency domain. The impact of EMG processing based measures in fatigue assessment during manual lifting are reviewed in this paper. It is believed that this paper will greatly benefit researchers who need a bird’s eye view of the biosignal processing which are currently available, thus determining the best possible techniques for lifting applications.

Abstract:

(1) Background: Yearly, more than 40% of the European employees suffer from work-related musculoskeletal disorders. Still, ergonomic guidelines defining optimal lifting techniques to decrease work-related musculoskeletal disorders (WMSDs) has not been unambiguously defined. Therefore, this study investigates if recommended squat lifting imposes lower musculoskeletal loading than stoop lifting while using a complex full body musculoskeletal OpenSim model. (2) Methods: Ten healthy participants lifted two different weights using both lifting techniques. 3D marker trajectories and ground reaction forces were used as input to calculate joint angles, moments and power using a full body musculoskeletal model with articulated lumbar spine. In addition, the muscle activity of nine different muscles was measured to investigate muscle effort when lifting. (3) Results: Peak moments and peak joint power in L5S1 were not different between the squat and the stoop, but higher peak moments and peak power in the hip, knee, elbow and shoulder were found during squat lifting. Moment impulses in L5S1 were higher during stoop lifting. This is reflected in higher peak electromyography (EMG) but lower muscle effort in prior described muscles during the squat. (4) Conclusions: Squat lifting imposes higher peak full body musculoskeletal loading but similar low back loading compared to stoop lifting, as reflected in peak moments, peak power, and peak EMG.

Abstract:

Modern scientific studies demonstrate a direct relationship between a decrease in the quantitative ratio of type I/III collagen in tissues and the severity of age-related changes, the formation of a deformative type of aging and the early development of ptosis of the lower third of the face able to compensate for the reduced ratio of type I/III collagen. In addition, the specificity of the threads used to perform lifting technologies provides an increase in collagen, predominantly of type III, and a relatively small number of them and only a certain lifting route are used. Currently, the clinical efficacy of 100% polylactic acid threads has been proven, which are able to stimulate the synthesis of type I collagen. Thus, the combination of lifting and reinforcing techniques in one procedure is expedient and relevant. In order to achieve aesthetic and lifting results of thread techniques, as well as to increase the intensity of microcirculation, oxygenation and stimulation of collagenogenesis (including type I), we have developed a method of minimally invasive combined technique of thread implantation, including the use of lifting threads made of polydioxanone and polylactic acid copolymer and polycaprolactone and 100% polylactic acid reinforcing threads. The minimally invasive technology provides prolongation of the lifting effect; creates the effect of volumization of facial tissues and the supporting dynamic framework in conditions of tissue displacement, and also improves the quality of skin structures by stimulating trophic and oxygenation of tissues, strengthening the collagen framework, increasing the ratio of type I/III collagen, enhancing the production of its own hyaluronic acid and extracellular matrix components.

Abstract:

Most of the watermarking techniques based on DWT technique embed watermarks into the detail (or middle frequency) coefficients of the host image for a good-trade-off between robustness and fidelity. But, in order to obtain the most robustness, the DC area (LL sub-band) may be a most suitable region for watermark embedding, as the signal energy of DC components is much bigger than that of high frequency sub-bands. A blind novel watermarking algorithm based on fast lifting wavelet transform, a kind of second generation wavelet transform, is proposed. Firstly, a multi-level discrete lifting wavelet transform is employed, and then the watermark is embedded into DC area of last level lifting wavelet transform according to amplitude modulation method with a secret key, lastly a watermarked image is obtained after lifting wavelet reconstruction to be applied. The results of experiments show that this algorithm is still effective after applying high compression ratio JPEG.

Abstract:

As adults with Down syndrome (DS) age, their strength decreases resulting in difficulty performing activities of daily living. In the current study, we investigated the use of video modeling for teaching three adults with DS to perform weight lifting techniques. A multiple probe design across behaviors (i.e., lifts) was used to evaluate intervention effectiveness. Data indicated variable effects across participants and lifting techniques. Limitations and suggestions for future research are discussed.

Abstract:

To date, massage technology can achieve the desired lifting effect, as well as to maintain the lifting effect is achieved by surgical methods. The choice of tactics aesthetic massage must be justified, and the program of lifting individual. One of the main action is the remodeling of the face and necks, which requires adequate stimulation of its physiological capabilities, aimed to recreate the three-dimensional organization and increase water capacity of the main substance of the dermis, the restoration of quality and quantity of fibrous structures, increased proliferative activity of fibroblasts. From the standpoint of achieving the desired result such as the rehabilitation phase of the relief of skin in problem areas of face, neck and neck, simulations of an oval face, the shortfall amount of soft tissue is a major and decisive. Esthetic massage technique proposed by us, based on a combination of different chiropractic techniques: effects on the skin, muscles, ligaments, face and neck, vascular tone, the state of the lymph ducts, reflex points and facial zone. It allows you to potentiate the effects of other methods of rejuvenation and leads to more effective anti-aging complex. Impact on the reflex zones and acupressure points for aesthetic facelift massage lead to: correction distress syndrome, stimulation of metabolic processes, improve sleep, normalization of muscle tone, activation of tissue regeneration, increased hormonal activity. Important components of aesthetic lifting massage - the duration of the sequence of steps, the repetition of massage techniques, combined application with other medical factors - hardware physiotherapy (iontophoresis, dermal mikrolifting, miostimulation, the use of low-energy laser radiation), cosmetic procedures, hormone - replacement and antioxidant therapy, techniques respiration. Conclusions When forming a lifting massage programs are not encouraged to develop long-term scheme of massage for patients with a strong gravitational ptosis and excess skin, with a predominance of large folds, the second chin. The patient should be advised to consult a plastic surgeon, should be encouraged to consistently complete a comprehensive cosmetic and therapeutic programs for patients who insist on quick results, with consultation of patients with exaggerated and inappropriate expectations of the need to emphasize the limitations and possible side effects and complications of procedures. Application of the technique of aesthetic face and neck massage in an anti-age-lifting programs can improve their effectiveness, both through the achievement of local anti-aging effect and improve the overall condition of the patients.

Abstract:

Many health professionals do not use correct person transfer techniques in their daily practice. This results in damage to the paraspinal musculature over time, resulting in lower back pain and injuries. In this work, we propose an approach for the accurate multimodal measurement of people lifting and related motion patterns for ergonomic education regarding the application of correct patient transfer techniques. Several examples of person lifting were recorded and processed through accurate instrumentation and the well-defined measurements of kinematics, kinetics, surface electromyography of muscles as well as multicamera video. This resulted in a complete measurement protocol and unique reference datasets of correct and incorrect lifting schemes for caregivers and patients. This understanding of multimodal motion patterns provides insights for further independent investigations.
