Abstract:
Mucosal drug delivery permits direct and prompt drug absorption, which is capable of reducing undesirable decomposition that occurs before absorption. However, mucus clearance of those mucosal drug delivery systems strongly retards their actual application. Herein, we propose chromatophore nanoparticles embedded with FOF1-ATPase motors to promote mucus penetration. The FOF1-ATPase motor-embedded chromatophores were firstly extracted from Thermus thermophilus by using a gradient centrifugation method. Then, the model drug (curcumin) was loaded onto the chromatophores. The drug loading efficiency and entrapment efficiency were optimized by using different loading approaches. The activity, motility, stability and mucus permeation of the drug-loaded chromatophore nanoparticles were thoroughly investigated. Both the in vitro and in vivo studies revealed that the FOF1-ATPase motor-embedded chromatophore successfully enhanced mucus penetration glioma therapy. This study indicates that the FOF1-ATPase motor-embedded chromatophore is a promising alternative as a mucosal drug delivery system.

Abstract:
To examine the relations of age, gender, movement experience, and gross motor development to young children's scores on divergent movement (i.e., ability to perform and modify fundamental movement patterns), 40 boys and girls ages 4, 6, and 8 years were tested. Ability to make divergent movements was evaluated by having subjects perform 3 different fundamental movement tasks. Movement experience was assessed by asking parents to complete a questionnaire. Ulrich's Test of Gross Motor Development was used to evaluate subjects' gross motor skill. Testing sessions were videotaped for analysis. Based on a forward stepwise regression analysis, experience and age accounted for 45% of the variance in children's gross motor skill.

Abstract:
Single-phase induction motors are also used extensively for smaller loads. Speed control of induction motor has beenimplemented using PI (Proportional-Integral) controller and Fuzzy PI controller in Simulink MATLAB. The results showthat induction motor Fuzzy-PI speed control method results in a quicker response with no overshoot than the conventional PI controller. The settling time of induction motor Fuzzy-PI speed is better than the conventional PI controller. The integral time of weighted absolute error (ITEA) performance criteria also shows that the induction motor Fuzzy-PI speed control has better performance. Moreover, the induction motor Fuzzy-PI speed control has a strong ability to adapt to the significant change of system parameters.

Abstract:
Prehension is a fundamental skill usually performed as part of a complex action sequence in everyday tasks. Using an information processing framework, these studies examined the effects of task complexity, defined by the number of component movement elements (MEs), on performance of prehension tasks. Of interest was how motor control and organisation might be influenced by age and/or motor competence. Three studies and two longitudinal case studies examined kinematic characteristics of prehension tasks involving one-, two- and three-MEs: reach and grasp (low-complexity); reach, grasp and object placement (moderate-complexity); and reach, grasp and double placement of object (high-complexity). A pilot study established the suitability of tasks and procedures for children aged 5-, 8- and 11-years and showed that responses to task complexity and object size manipulations were sensitive to developmental changes, with increasing age associated with faster movements. Study 2 explored complexity and age effects further for children aged 6- and 11-years and adults. Increasing age was associated with shorter and less variable movement times (MTs) and proportional deceleration phases (%DTs) across all MEs. Task complexity had no effect on simple reaction time (SRT), suggesting that there may be little preprogramming of movements beyond the first ME. In addition, MT was longer and more on-line corrections were evident for the high- compared to the moderate-complexity task for ME1. Task complexity had a greater influence on movements in ME2 and ME3 than ME1. Adults, but not children, showed task specific adaptations in ME2. Study 3 examined performance of children with different levels of motor competence aged between 5- and 10-years. Increasing age was associated with shorter SRTs, and MTs for ME1 only. A decrease in motor competence was associated with greater difficulty in planning and controlling movements as indicated by longer SRTs, higher %DTs and more on-line corrections, especially in ME2. Task complexity affected movements in all MEs, with a greater influence on ME1 compared to Study 2. Findings also indicated that performance in MEs following prehension may be especially sensitive to motor competence effects on movement characteristics. Case studies for two children at risk of Developmental Coordination Disorder (DCD) revealed two different patterns of performance change over a 16-17 month period, highlighting the heterogeneous nature of DCD. Overall, findings highlighted age-related differences, and the role of motor competence, in the ability to adapt movements to task specific requirements. Results are useful in guiding movement education programmes for children with both age-appropriate and lower levels of motor competence.

Abstract:
This work investigates the necessary aspects for the motor ability assessment in persons with lower-limb amputation, following the evaluation approaches suggested by the World Health Organization. In the specific case of the lower-limb amputee patient, the assessement can be articulated on two different levels: a first general, concerning the motor ability and quality of life as a function of that (level of independence), and a second local one, concerning the specificity of each single prosthetic module which composes the entire prosthetic chain, in the relationship with the user's motor function. The general purpose is therefore to provide fact-finding and operational tools in order to identify an accurate and reliable methodology for the motor ability assessment of prosthetized lower-limb amputees, both during gait and stereotypic locomotor tasks. This methodology is intended to constitute a valid and conventionally recognized reference for the amputee rehabilitation team, both for the functional patient assessment and for the technical-clinical evaluation of the prosthetic modules used. The perspective purpose is to verify the extractability of parameters particulary sensitive to the variability of clinical aspects related to the the lower-limb amputee motor ability, that can therefore be measured by a simple, low cost, wearable instrumentation, making them intelligible and useful to the clinical team and exportable in a remote supervision context. The main aims of the present thesis can be summarized in: 1. Identification of parameters of evaluation sensitive to the motor ability changes in lower-limb amputee subjects; 2. Definition of experimental methodological protocols ad hoc for the functional evaluation of the subject and for the appropriateness of the single prosthetic components. The research activity of the present thesis has been oriented on different works, each of which presents various peculiar aspects for the identification of specific indices for the assessment of the lower-limb amputee’s motor ability.

Abstract:
Expertise effects on response acquisition (learning) and performance reproduction (performance) (Bandura, 1986) in dance observational learning were investigated. Over an acquisition period, forty university students with varied movement backgrounds observed dance demonstrations, arranged still photos to represent the dances, and performed each dance. Learning was assessed via a pictorial-resequencing task. Dance performance accuracy and quality were evaluated via detailed analyses of videotaped performances. Results indicated that dance experts learn more and perform better than novices (p $<$.05) in a modeling situation, and learning and performance scores are positively correlated at a moderate level. Entry-level dance skill is the best present indicator of success in dance observational learning. Elementary instruction can improve beginner dancers' observational learning ability. The findings support Bandura's social cognitive theory of modeling (1986), extend the knowledge base related to the effects of expertise in motor skill acquisition, and have implications for dance and other motor skill educators.

O controle concomitante da postura e da mão, baseado em informação visual contida no fluxo ótico, é imprescindível para o sucesso da ação de agarrar um objeto. O presente estudo investigou o efeito das fontes de informação visual global e local sobre a oscilação corporal e controle da mão durante a tarefa de agarrar uma bola em aproximação, em adultos jovens. Doze participantes tiveram que manter a posição em pé durante 18 segundos olhando para a bola fixa numa haste, acoplada a uma sala móvel; a tarefa foi agarrar a bola parada ou em aproximação, enquanto a sala móvel se moveu na mesma direção ou em direção oposta ao movimento da bola, totalizando nove condições experimentais, com cinco tentativas cada. Informações cinemáticas sobre o movimento do tronco, da mão, da sala móvel e da bola foram coletadas e possibilitaram duas análises: (A) para identificar o efeito de agarrar ou não a bola estacionária sobre a postura, e (B) para identificar o efeito da bola estar estacionária ou se aproximando sobre as ações do braço e da postura. A análise A mostrou que os participantes estiveram sintonizados à informação global (sala), com o conflito sensorial sendo apropriadamente resolvido; a informação local (bola) parece ter funcionado como um fator de restrição no controle da postura para que o agarrar fosse realizado com sucesso. A análise B mostrou sintonia dos participantes às informações global e local do ambiente para resolver o respectivo conflito sensorial e promover ajustes e compensações necessárias, priorizando a ação de agarrar a bola. Relevância e papel das fontes de informação local e global são discutidos para a combinação do controle postural e do agarrar.
The simultaneous posture and hand control, based on information in the optic flow field, is essential for the grasp successful. The present paper has investigated the global and local visual information effect on the body balance and postural control during the grasp an approximation ball task, on young adults. Twelve participants have had to maintain the stand up position during 18 seconds looking the ball fixed in the shaft within the moving room. The task has been to grasp a stationary or a closing ball, while the moving room have moved in the same direction or in the opposite direction of ball movement, the total of nine experimental conditions, with five trials each condition. Cinematic information about the trunk’s, hand’s, moving room’s, and ball’s movement has been collected. Two analysis have done: (A) to identify the grasp’s presence effect on the posture and (B) to identify the ball’s movement effect on the postural and hand controls. The analysis A has showed that the participants have been sintonizated on the global information and solving the sensorial conflito; the local information seems to act like a restriction factor on the postural control for the succeed grasp. The analysis B has showed the participants’ sensitivity to the global and local ambience information to solve the respective sensorial conflito and to provide the necessary compensation and adjustment to grasp the ball, priority. Relevance and function of the global and local information are discussed to the combined postural and grasp control.

Caminhar pode parecer uma tarefa que requer pouca demanda atencional, contudo trata-se de uma atividade que requer cauteloso planejamento, monitoramento e coordenação adequada de uma seqüência de ações. Objetivos: Analisar o efeito da dupla tarefa sobre variáveis cinemáticas e cinéticas da marcha em adultos jovens. Método: Participaram do estudo 17 voluntárias jovens (21,47±2,06 anos). O teste foi realizado em quatro condições distintas: marcha normal (MN), dupla tarefa fácil (DTF), dupla tarefa difícil (DTD), e dupla tarefa mista (DTM). Para a análise dos dados cinemáticos foram usados os 10 primeiros ciclos consecutivos de cada condição. As variáveis analisadas foram o tempo e o comprimento da passada, assim como a ativação muscular e níveis de cocontração durante a realização dos testes. Para a análise do comprimento de passada, tempo de passada, e nível de cocontração foi utilizado o teste ANOVA One way, e Post hoc de Tukey Alpha. Para a análise dos dados de ativação muscular, foi usado o teste Anova de Friedman, e Post hoc de Dunns na comparação entre as diferentes condições de marcha. O nível de significância de foi estabelecido em 5% (p <0,05). Resultados: Caminhar com a adição de tarefas cognitivas afetou significantemente os padrões de ativação muscular para sujeitos jovens, contudo não foram encontradas diferenças para o comprimento, tempo dos passos, nem para o nível de contração. Conclusão: Os dados do presente estudo, nas condições metodológicas propostas, permitem concluir que a competição entre recursos motores e cognitivos afeta significantemente os níveis de ativação muscular durante o desenvolvimento da marcha
Walking may seem like a chore that gives of little attentional demand, however it is an activity that requires careful planning, monitoring and coordination of an appropriate sequence of actions. Objectives: To analyze the effect of dual task on kinematic and kinetic variables of gait in young adults. Method: The study included 17 young volunteers (21.47 ± 6.2 years). The test was performed in four different conditions: normal walking (MN), dual easy task (FTD), dual task (DTD), and mixed double duty (TMD). For the analysis of kinematic data were used the first 10 consecutive cycles of each condition. The variables analyzed were the time and stride length, and muscle activation levels and cocontração during testing. For the analysis of stride length, stride time, and level of test was used cocontração One way ANOVA and post hoc Tukey's Alpha. For data analysis of muscle activation, we used the Friedman ANOVA and post hoc Dunns when comparing the different conditions of motion. The significance level was set at 5% (p <0.05). Results: Walking with the addition of cognitive tasks significantly affected the patterns of muscle activation for young subjects, but no differences were found for the length of time steps, or to the level of contraction. Conclusion: The results of this study, the methodology proposed conditions allow to conclude that competition between cognitive and motor features significantly affect the levels of muscle activation during development of the march

Resumo: A função do membro superior inclui a capacidade de alcance direcionado, preensão e manipulação de objetos. Tais capacidades formam a base motora requerida para a realização das atividades de vida diária (AVD) com eficiência. A eficiência do uso das mãos nas AVD pode ser afetada por patologias, bem como pelo envelhecimento. O desempenho motor de forma geral apresenta um declínio em idosos, aproximadamente à partir dos 60 anos. O presente estudo focaliza o uso do tabuleiro portátil de atividade de vida diária (TPAVD) para avaliação do desempenho em tarefas manuais. O TPAVD consiste de atividades envolvendo o uso de uma ou ambas as mãos em tarefas simples que os seres humanos realizam no seu cotidiano. O objetivo do presente estudo é avaliar a coordenação motora fina usando o tabuleiro portátil de AVD's (TPAVD) ao longo do envelhecimento. O estudo contou com aproximadamente 60 participantes (15 participantes em cada grupo por faixa etária) dentro das seguintes faixas de idade, a saber: 20 a 25 anos, 45 a 50 anos, 60 a 65 anos, 70 anos ou mais, sem qualquer diagnóstico de patologia musculoesquelética e lesão neurológica que apresente problema e/ou disfunção no membro superior. As tarefas do TPAVD foram divididas em quatro subtestes distintos. Dessa forma, o tempo de execução de cada subteste e a soma do tempo de cada subteste foram utilizados como variável dependente. A hipótese do estudo foi de que o TPAVD poderia captar diferenças no tempo de execução entre os diferentes grupos ... (Resumo completo, clicar acesso eletrônico abaixo)
Abstract: The upper limb function includes ability to reach, hold and manipulate objects. These capabilities form the motor base required to perform the activities of daily living (ADLs) efficiently. The efficiency of the use of hands in the ADLs can be affected by diseases and aging process. The general motor performance shows a decline in the elderly, at about the age of 60. This study focuses on the use of portable board activity of daily living (PBADL) for performance evaluation on manual tasks. The PBADL consists of activities involving the use of one or both hands on simple tasks that humans perform in their daily lives. The aim of this study is to examine fine motor skills using portable board of ADLs (i.e., PBADL) across a range of ages. The study included approximately 60 participants (15 participants in each group by age group) within the following age groups, 20 to 25 years, 45-50 years 60-65 years 70 years or more, without any musculoskeletal diagnosis and neurological injury pathology or presenting problem and/ or dysfunction in the upper limbs. The PBADL tasks were divided into four distinct subtests. Thus, the execution time of each subtest and the total time of each subtest were used as dependent variables. The study hypothesis was that the PBADL could capture differences in execution time between different groups according to age group. That is, the older the participant the greater the time to execute the tasks in the PBADL. The results of this study confirmed the differences in performance of TPAVD tasks between age groups, considering the sum of the times of the subtests. In relation to the time of each subtest, subtest 2 was not presented the expected differences. The times subtests 1, 3 and 4 have been gradually increasing with age. The TPAVD is a potential methodology to be used as tool for evaluation of hand function

Abstract:
AbstractMicrotubules play an essential role in many cellular functions, in part by serving as tracks for intracellular transport by kinesin and dynein. The ability of microtubules to fulfill this role fundamentally depends on the fact that they are polar, with motors moving along them toward either their plus or minus end. Given that the microtubule cytoskeleton adopts a variety of specialized architectures in different cell types, it is important to map precisely how microtubules are oriented and organized in these cells. To this end, motor-PAINT has been developed, but in its current implementation, it relies on total internal reflection fluorescence (TIRF) microscopy and is thus restricted to imaging microtubules in a thin section of the cell immediately adjacent to the coverslip. Here, we report a variant of motor-PAINT that uses lattice light-sheet microscopy to overcome this, allowing for the mapping of microtubule organization and orientation in three-dimensional samples. We describe the necessary steps to purify, label, use, and image kinesin motors for motor-PAINT and outline the analysis pipeline used to visualize the resulting data. The method described here can be used in the future to study the microtubule cytoskeleton in (thick) polarized cells such as intestinal epithelial cells.

Full text
Abstract:
Abstract Switched reluctance motors may be advantageous when used as the primary motor for an electric submersible pump system. They are less susceptible to jamming failures due to their high starting torque and ability to reverse direction. Driving these motors requires well-timed pulse waveforms and precise control of the motor based on its rotational position. It is demonstrated that the pulses required to drive switched reluctance motors can still be applied over along cable lengths. Additionally, the current at the surface can be used to monitor and control the operation of the motor downhole, even with long cable lengths separating the surface power source and downhole motor.

Abstract:
Mechanical condition diagnostics have historically relied upon both human perceptions (sound, sight, smell) and mechanical measurements, such as vibration. In recent years, the ability to extract useful information about certain conditions of mechanical equipment driven by motors from motor energy transfer components (current, power, etc.) has been recognized. This paper discusses the use of motor data to assist in the understanding of certain fluid and mechanical conditions of compressors and pumps.

Abstract:
Review question / Objective: We conducted a meta-analysis to determine the effectiveness of SSRIs in improving motor outcomes after stroke. Condition being studied: Stroke is a major cause of disability, and motor weakness is one of the most disabling and common complications of stroke. It impairs patients’ ability to perform daily activities independently and deteriorates their quality of life. Selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) have been reported to have a positive effect on motor recovery after stroke, as well as on the prevention or management of post-stroke depression. In contrast, some previous studies have revealed no positive therapeutic effects of SSRIs on motor recovery after stroke. In the current study, to accurately determine the effectiveness of SSRIs for improving motor outcomes after stroke, we only included studies in which SSRIs were administered to patients in the recovery phase after stroke (<6 months after stroke onset).

Full text
Abstract:
Currently, several studies and experiments are being done to create a new generation of ultra-low-power wearable sensors. For instance, our group is currently working towards the development of a high-performance flexible pressure sensor. However, with the creation of new sensors, a need for a standard test method is necessary. Therefore, we opted to create a standardized testbed to evaluate the pressure applied to sensors. A pulse wave is generated when the heart pumps blood causing a change in the volume of the blood vessel. In order to eliminate the need of human subjects when testing pressure sensors, we utilized polymeric material, which mimics human flesh. The goal is to simulate human pulse by pumping air into a polymeric pocket which s deformed. The project is realized by stepper motor and controlled with an Arduino board. Furthermore, this device has the ability to simulate pulse wave form with different frequencies. This in turn allows us to simulate conditions such as bradycardia, tachycardia, systolic pressure, and diastolic pressure.

Full text
Abstract:
In 2019, the United States experienced more than 6,500 pedestrian fatalities involving motor vehicles which resulted in a 67% rise in nighttime pedestrian fatalities and only a 10% rise in daytime pedestrian fatalities. In an effort to reduce fatalities, this research developed a pedestrian detection and alert system through the application of a visual camera, infrared camera, and radar sensors combined with machine learning. The research team designed the system concept to achieve a high level of accuracy in pedestrian detection and avoidance during both the day and at night to avoid potentially fatal accidents involving pedestrians crossing a street. The working prototype of pedestrian detection and collision avoidance can be installed in present-day vehicles, with the visible camera used to detect pedestrians during the day and the infrared camera to detect pedestrians primarily during the night as well as at high glare from the sun during the day. The radar sensor is also used to detect the presence of a pedestrian and calculate their range and direction of motion relative to the vehicle. Through data fusion and deep learning, the ability to quickly analyze and classify a pedestrian’s presence at all times in a real-time monitoring system is achieved. The system can also be extended to cyclist and animal detection and avoidance, and could be deployed in an autonomous vehicle to assist in automatic braking systems (ABS).
