A standardized physical examination, which included pain in the girdles elicited by passive and active movements, degree of elevation of upper arms, and pain and tenderness of the vertebral column was performed.
Variation in simulated NIP values can be explained by the fact that larval, nymphal, and adult tick loads were distributed differently among the different-sized hosts, each with their distinct range of movement and degree of variation in population size.
The dragload depends on various factors such as, pile characteristics (method of installation, material, and surface treatment), soil properties (shear strength and compressibility), pile soil relative movement, and degree of consolidation.
In the situation that PBCT could not be performed due to extreme limitation of extraocular muscle movement, the degree of ocular deviation was estimated by the Krimsky test [ 15, 16].
Outcome measures for the tests are maximum range of movement (degrees) and peak angular speed of the cervical axial rotations (degrees/second).
Then, we introduced two order parameters to measure the directional and cohesive cell movement, which characterize the collectivity of multicellular movement: (1) the degree of forward movement and (2) the spatial correlation length.
This gives the robot's movements a degree of elasticity which, coupled with force sensors, provides a feedback mechanism.
If dispersal is achieved through a particular type of movement, potential differences to routine movements include a high degree of linearity of movement pathways, high movement speed, and no response to resources or conspecifics (Van Dyck and Baguette 2005).
The ERT is designed to resemble a thumb, in its size, movement and degrees of freedom.
They also reported low levels of affective distress, catastrophizing thoughts, and self-efficacy in various activities, high levels of fear of movement, low degrees of pain-related disability, and low morale.
