The objective of this work was to analyse the efficiency of adaptive training with electromyographic biological feedback in the early period after reconstruction of fingers depending on the character of wrist defects, the method of their correction, and etiology of the injury. Unique techniques were proposed for the training. Their effectiveness was evaluated based on clinical observations, results of electromyographic and biomechanical studies that demonstrated a significant increase of EMG amplitudes for different groups of wrist and forearm muscles during basic thumb movements (p = 0.05-0.0003) and changes of major biomechanical parameters (p = 0.007-0.000008) in the course of adaptive training with electromyographic biological feedback depending on EMG amplitude.

Background: Vocal therapy, such as singing training, is an increasingly popular pulmonary rehabilitation program that has improved respiratory muscle status in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). However, variations in singing treatment protocols have led to inconsistent clinical outcomes.
Objective: This study aims to explore the content of vocalization training for patients with COPD by observing differences in respiratory muscle activation across different vocalization tasks.
Ballet shows numerous physiological benefits for dancers, with adaptations in posture, power, strength, stamina, and balance. The recent study from Simpkins and Yang (2024) showed 45% of ballet-trained dancers experienced a fall during a standing-slip perturbation, compared with 82.6% of non-dancers; along with shorter step latencies, durations, and speeds, which were accompanied by shorter electromyographic latencies in several leg muscles.

Background: Objective training load (TL) indexes used in resistance training lack physiological significance. This study was aimed to provide a muscle physiology-based approach for quantifying TL in resistance exercises (REs).
Methods: Following individual torque-velocity profiling, fifteen participants (11 healthy males, stature: 178.

: Falls and fall consequences in older adults are global health issues. Previous studies have compared postural sways or stepping strategies between older adults with and without fall histories to identify factors associated with falls. However, more in-depth neuromuscular/kinematic mechanisms have remained unclear.

Objective: Electromyographic (EMG) signals show large variabilities over time due to factors such as electrode shifting, user behaviour variations, etc., substantially degrading the performance of myoelectric control models in long-term use. Previously one-time model calibration was usually required each time before usage.
