Gait Posture
December 2024
Faculty of Medicine, Neurology Department, Hacettepe University, Ankara, Turkey.
Background: Although stroke patients gain an advantage in gait due to the knee hyperextension that occurs during the stance phase, this situation disrupts the biomechanical structure of the knee and increases the risk of injury to the capsular and ligamentous structures. The aim of this study was to examine the effects of rigid taping on hyperextension control and pelvic kinematics in stroke patients with knee hyperextension during the stance phase of gait.
Research Question: Does rigid taping have an effect on hyperextension control and pelvic kinematics in stroke patients with knee hyperextension?
Methods: Thirty stroke patients aged between 40 and 70 were included in this pre-postintervention study.

In recent years, bioinspired insect flight has become a prominent research area, with a particular focus on beetle-inspired aerial vehicles. Studying the unique flight mechanisms and structural characteristics of beetles has significant implications for the optimization of biomimetic flying devices. Among beetles, (rhinoceros beetle) exhibits a distinct wing deployment-flight-retraction sequence, whereby the interaction between the hindwings and protective elytra contributes to lift generation and maintenance.

Recent Antarctic sea-ice decline is a substantial source of concern, notably the record low in 2023 (ref. ). Progress has been made towards establishing the causes of ice loss but uncertainty remains about its consequences for ocean-atmosphere interaction.
