| Abstract | Quantifying muscle and joint forces over a broad range of weight bearing loads during exercise may provide data required to improve prosthetic materials and better protect against muscle and bone loss. Collectively, leg intramuscular pressure (IMP), ground reaction force (GRF), and the instrumented tibial tray force measurements provide a comprehensive assessment of leg muscle and joint biomechanical effects of gravity during exercise. Titration of body weight (BW) by lower body negative pressure (LBNP) and lower body positive pressure (LBPP) can reproducibly modulate IMP within leg muscle compartments. In addition, previous studies document peak tibial forces during various daily activities of 2.2 to 2.5 BW. The study objective was to determine the IMPs of the leg, axial compressive force on the tibia in vivo, vertical GRF, and knee range of motion during altered BW levels using LBPP and LBNP treadmill exercise. We hypothesize that peak GRF, peak tibial forces, and peak IMPs of the leg correlate linearly with percent BW, as generated across a broad range of upright LBPP and supine LBNP exercise. When running at 2.24 m/s the leg IMPs significantly increased over the loading range of 60% to 140% BW with LBPP and LBNP (P < 0.001); as expected, leg IMPs were significantly higher when running compared with standing (P < 0.001). During upright LBPP, total axial force at the knee increased linearly as a function of BW at 0.67 m/s (R(2) = 0.90) and 1.34 m/s (R(2) = 0.98). During supine LBNP, total axial force at the knee increased linearly as a function of BW at 0.67 m/s (R(2) = 0.98) and 1.34 m/s (R(2) = 0.91). The present study is the first to measure IMPs and peak tibial forces in vivo during upright LBPP, upright LBNP, and supine LBNP exercise. These data will aid the development of rehabilitation exercise hardware and prescriptions for patients and astronauts. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
