During the examination period from June until December 2014, one-dimensional isometric trunk strength measurements were carried out on healthy, middle-aged probands using the biofeedback device "Pegasus". The aim was to check out the predefined standard values of the company BfMC and generate standard value ranges for muscular imbalances. Furthermore, these examinations were used to capture occurring forces on other levels to assess their impact on one-dimensional measurements. A standardized warm up was followed by the determination of the maximum trunk strength in flexion, extension, rotation and lateral inclination. Two measurements on 54 probands at the age of 22.8 ± 3.3 years and an average BMI of 28.9 ± 3.2 were conducted. In addition, the deviating forces were determined. In target-actual value comparison, the probands were about 17.1\% above the normal range of their respective age groups, with an average isometric trunk strength development in all six directions of movement of 835Nm. For the male probands it was also found out that they positioned themselves 63.6\% above (average?). The female probands in total were also within the normal range, but 200Nm less power was generated and 34\% did not reach the normal range. Looking at the deviating forces, it is noticeable that 549.1 Nm (54\%) were also applied in the other anatomic plains. Here, there were clear differences between the deviating forces in the isometric testing in the sagittal and frontal plain. In the measurement results of the sagittal plain (Ext; Flex), the deviating forces were 45.8Nm (29.9\%) on average in the frontal and transverse direction. In the measurement results of lateral inclination and rotation, the deviating forces were 95.3\% and 110\% in sagittal and transverse direction. As a result, it can be noted that, despite the absence of pain, postural imbalances and diseases of the spine, more than half of the forces cannot be generated according to the axis. At this, synergistic functions seem to be physiological in this scope, in order to produce maximum plain equitable forces which basically questions one-dimensional measurements. The test results show significant deviations from the normal range, which raises the issue of the relevance of the defined standard values based on the evaluation of isometric force development. Further studies will have to prove the relevance of three-dimensional maximum force measurements.}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{RabandMartinBraunetal., author = {Raband, Konrad and Martin, Titus and Braun, Alexander and Michel, Sven and Prill, Robert}, title = {Handgripstrength as central criterion in employment capacity-diagnostics - a study from the perspective of}, series = {The International Disabled People's Day - XXIII edition - Life without Pain/Healthy Children - Healthy Europe}, booktitle = {The International Disabled People's Day - XXIII edition - Life without Pain/Healthy Children - Healthy Europe}, publisher = {Oficyna Wydawnicza Klubu Literackiego "Inspiracje"}, address = {Zgorzelec}, isbn = {978-83-88380-75-4}, pages = {S. 44}, abstract = {Handgripstrength is used as highlighter for muscural capacity.

Athletes rarely return to the peak of performance or are limited in their ability to perform their sport. Performance tests for ACLR are still immature and often unspecific. In Judo, the ability to stand on one's feet is an essential prerequisite for many situations. An unstable standing position also promotes knee injuries. In order to check the stability of the single leg stand, a controlled test-re-test design is used in the present study. Two groups are included: A (n=27): Judoka without anamnestically relevant injuries of the lower extremities or the back and B (n=17): Judoka 5.06 ± 1.06 years after ACLR. A one-legged hop test up on a piezoelectric force plate is examined for reliability with respect to the test repetition and validity with regard to the predicted identification of deficits in a side-by-side comparison. In this test, the test person jumps with one leg on the force plate at a defined distance and tries to stand as still as possible, which means that hardly any horizontal force is generated. Both tests are carried out one after the other with both legs and with sufficient break twice each. In group A, there were no significant differences (p>0.05) between the subjectively better leg and the subjectively worse leg, or the leg in the front and rear of the kumi-kata in Judo. In group B, in the first experiment with the ACLR leg, the test persons generate a significantly higher horizontal force in a 95\% confidence interval of the bilateral coefficient of CI=[0.16-0.76] compared to the side not affected (p=0.017). In the test repetition, Group B generates with the affected leg significantly less horizontal force surges than in the first attempt. No significant differences in lateral comparison could be measured, although there is a reliability coefficient of r=0.89 for the ACLR leg, but only r=0.35 for the unaffected leg and r=0.53 for group A. It is concluded that the test for asymptomatic judokas cannot be regarded as sufficiently selective due to the low requirement. In group B, in the second experiment, a feed-forward model including pre-activation based on empirical values from the first experiment could explain the improvement, which has led to no significant differences between legs.}, language = {en} } @misc{OttoKirschnerBraunetal., author = {Otto, Gesine and Kirschner, Jana and Braun, Alexander and Martin, Titus and Michel, Sven}, title = {The relationship between the physical self-concept and the motor performance level}, series = {The International Disabled People`s Day - XXVth edition - Life without Pain / Healthy Children - Healthy Europe}, volume = {2019}, journal = {The International Disabled People`s Day - XXVth edition - Life without Pain / Healthy Children - Healthy Europe}, publisher = {Oficyna Wydawnicza Klubu Literackiego "Inspiracje"}, address = {Zgorzelec}, isbn = {978-83-88380-77-8}, pages = {23}, language = {en} } @misc{FreyMartinBraunetal., author = {Frey, Sebastian and Martin, Titus and Braun, Alexander and Michel, Sven}, title = {The Virtual reality in physiotherapeutic performance diagnostics - Programming and validation of the VR Reach test to assess eye-hand coordination}, series = {The International Disabled People`s Day - XXIVth edition - Life without Pain / Healthy Children - Healthy Europe}, journal = {The International Disabled People`s Day - XXIVth edition - Life without Pain / Healthy Children - Healthy Europe}, publisher = {Oficyna Wydawnicza Klubu Literackiego "Inspiracje"}, address = {Zgorzelec}, isbn = {978-83-88380-76-1}, pages = {129}, abstract = {Digitization is increasingly shifting the manpower from the primary and secondary to the tertiary sector.

Therefore, the developed "Labor Market 4.0" demands a new motor requirement profile. Here, the coordinative skills become increasingly important, whereas the conditional skills slide in the background. The resulting "Physiotherapy 4.0" will be defined by a closer interlock between therapy and information and communication technologies. Thus, in neurological rehabilitation, e.g. of stroke patients, Virtual Reality (VR) has already been successfully used as therapy support. In addition, there are promising opportunities for VR in the field of diagnostics. With that in mind, a virtual test battery for the assessment of occupation-specific motor skills will be developed, which focalizes on the coordinative abilities. One of its components is the "VR Reach Test". It is based on the Method-Time Measurement (MTM) system and diagnoses the "Reach" skill.

Concerning the upper limb a distinct hand grip strength as well as a precise eye-hand coordination are of vital importance. Furthermore the therapists outcome of executed standardized grip settings of manual techniques and power impulses, i.e. the strength testing according to Janda, both handed or mirrored should be nearly identical. Potential individual disbalances could distort the medical findings of the patient or even influence the therapy in a negative matter. Therefore the balanced bimanual working should already be learned during the vocational training and should then be kept during the years of work. The aim of this study about physical therapists was to gain knowledge about possible disbalances of the observed skills. The sample consists of 47 test persons, including 27 pupils of physical therapy (M = 22.2 years, SD = 4.7) and 20 working physical therapists (M = 38.9 years, SD = 9.7). In an elicitation the status of the handgrip strength was acquired with a hand dynamometer whereas the status of the eye-hand coordination and of the finger skillfulness was acquired with the pegboard. There were no statistical significant disbalances found within cohorts. In contrast to that the group of pupils showed side differences regarding the finger skillfulness and the eye-hand coordination. Those differences didn't occur in the group of working physical therapists. Therefore two conclusions could be made: (1.) either the former side differences of working physical therapists are equalized by the daily work or (2.) the disbalances show a trend regarding the regressive skills of new pupils. Finally it is recommended to execute a larger longitudinal study to evaluate the regression of both handed, sensomotoric skills of future physical therapists and to counteract this development- if necessary - with a bimanual subject area embedded in the curriculum of the vocational education.}, language = {en} } @misc{SchulteWestenbergMartinBraunetal., author = {Schulte-Westenberg, Niklas and Martin, Titus and Braun, Alexander and Michel, Sven}, title = {The virtual reality in physiotherapeutic performance diagnostics - A study of the reliability and validity of the virtually supported upper limb plate tapping test}, series = {The International Disabled People`s Day - XXIVth edition - Life without Pain / Healthy Children - Healthy Europe}, journal = {The International Disabled People`s Day - XXIVth edition - Life without Pain / Healthy Children - Healthy Europe}, publisher = {Oficyna Wydawnicza Klubu Literackiego "Inspiracje"}, address = {Zgorzelec}, isbn = {978-83-88380-76-1}, pages = {127}, abstract = {Digitalization is the central challenge of the modern working environment.

Exact accuracy at top speed is increasingly needed in occupations like control tower operator, train conductor or in a control room of emergency services. New challenges in physiotherapeutic performance diagnostics and treatments continue to develop throughout this megatrend. It is also important not to limit the performance diagnostics due to age. Firstly, digital skills get crammed by children already at young age, useful for the modern working environment. These recent develpoments show the need for performance diagnostics of all ages. One approach are techniques with infrared LEDs and vertical lasers. Business and free time chal-lenges can be transformed and measured precisely in virtual reality. We developed the plate tap-ping test to test the upper body reaction time in a virtual environment. As in the first steps in the VR performance diagnostic we plan to test 300 probands of different age.

Therefore, its determination is of vital importance in intensive medical care, physical therapy rehabilitation of cardiological and other internal patients as well as in mass and competitive sports. Currant invasive diagnostic procedures utilize the carrier medium blood. However, this valide and reliable method bears a great number of drawbacks, i.e. a higher risk of infection and expenses through the mandatory presence of healthcare professionals. The determination of sweat lactate is a promising approach. The aim of this study is to investigate the transferability of metabolic-physiological processes of lactate accumulation from blood to sweat, based on the comparison of the lactate curves with constant exposure over a defined period of time. The research group consists of 50 healthy volunteers in early adulthood at equal sexual proportions. The measurement regime initially provides for a test procedure on the treadmill ergometer at a constant speed of 10 km / h. In five measurements, both sweat and blood samples are taken after every three-minute exercise periods, which are used to determine the respective lactate concentration. As a result, an alternative non-invasive lactate diagnosis should be developed in real time, which meets the high quality criteria of the bloody determination. Welding lactate diagnostics means a reduction in costs, time and staff, as well as being more patient-friendly and allowing use in field studies.}, language = {en} } @misc{PrillMichelKirschneretal., author = {Prill, Robert and Michel, Sven and Kirschner, Jana and Martin, Titus and Braun, Alexander and Vorwerg, Susan}, title = {Arthritis and sports in old age - challenges and opportunities for physiotherapy in amateur sport - approaches to prevention and activity design using the example of a single case study in Judo}, series = {The International Disabled People`s Day - XXth edition - Life without Pain / Healthy Children - Healthy Europe}, journal = {The International Disabled People`s Day - XXth edition - Life without Pain / Healthy Children - Healthy Europe}, publisher = {Oficyna Wydawnicza Klubu Literackiego "Inspiracje"}, address = {Zgorzelec}, isbn = {978-83-88380-72-3}, pages = {25}, abstract = {Arthritis is an illness, which is usually frequently due to degenerative or traumatic causes and can in almost all joints of the human body occur.

The promotion of the public health represents an important task of the popular sport. In order to be able to manage this task fairly, it is compellingly necessary to analyze the factors taking influence on the activity ratio. The frequent occurrence of pain affects the activity ratio negatively. The popular sport sees itself with an increasing obsolescence of the population and all the same with older sportsman and club members confronted. Therefore individual kinds of sport must, in order to be arranged attractive for older sportsmen it, be examined on their pain and arthritis of promoting elements. These are to be reduced then and be supplemented by jointcareful exercise and training programs, which make a pain reduced sport exercising possible. Since there are senior groups in many associations, these programs are relevant not only for the individual sportsman to be implement but wide range of importance.

The assessment of diet quality and knowledge on food and nutrition was done with the use of the Dietary Habits and Nutrition Beliefs Questionnaire. The diet of German students was characterized by a significantly higher consumption of legume-based foods, vegetables, and fruit compared to Polish students and Slovakian participants (p < 0.001). The diet of the Poles was characterized by a high consumption of cured meat, smoked sausages, hot dogs, white bread and bakery products, butter, fried foods, and energy drinks. The most important factors significantly associated with diet quality involved the country, place of residence, Body Mass Index (BMI), physical activity, and time spent watching TV or using a computer. Polish students were characterized by the highest level of knowledge on food and nutrition (p < 0.001). However, it was not reflected in their diet.
