Upper limb activity of twenty myoelectric prosthesis users and twenty healthy anatomically intact adults (2019)
Journal Article
Chadwell, A., Kenney, L., Granat, M., Thies, S., Galpin, A., & Head, J. (2019). Upper limb activity of twenty myoelectric prosthesis users and twenty healthy anatomically intact adults. Scientific Data, 6(1), 199. https://doi.org/10.1038/s41597-019-0211-6

The upper limb activity of twenty unilateral upper limb myoelectric prosthesis users and twenty anatomically intact adults were recorded over a 7-day period using two wrist worn accelerometers (Actigraph, LLC). This dataset reflects the real-world ac... Read More about Upper limb activity of twenty myoelectric prosthesis users and twenty healthy anatomically intact adults.

Quantifying sit-to-stand and stand-to-sit transitions in free-living environments using the activPAL thigh-worn activity monitor (2019)
Journal Article
Pickford, C., Findlow, A., Kerr, A., Banger, M., Clarke-Cornwell, A., Hollands, K., …Granat, M. (2019). Quantifying sit-to-stand and stand-to-sit transitions in free-living environments using the activPAL thigh-worn activity monitor. Gait & Posture, 73, 140-146. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.gaitpost.2019.07.126

Purpose: Standing up, sitting down and walking require considerable effort and coordination, which are crucial indicators to rehabilitation (e.g. stroke), and in older populations may indicate the onset of frailty and physical and cognitive decline....

Incorporating an exercise rehabilitation programme for people with intermittent claudication into an established cardiac rehabilitation service : a protocol for a pilot study. Contemporary Clinical Trials Communications, 15, 100389. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.conctc.2019.100389

Introduction: Current UK guidance for the treatment of intermittent claudication (IC) states that supervised exercise programmes (SEPs) should be offered as first-line treatment [1], prior to surgical interventions. However, there is currently a n...

Week and weekend day cadence patterns long-term post-bariatric surgery (2019)
Journal Article
Reid, R., Granat, M., Barreira, T., Haugan, C., Reid, T., & Andersen, R. (2019). Week and weekend day cadence patterns long-term post-bariatric surgery. Obesity Surgery, 29, 3271-3276. https://doi.org/10.1007/s11695-019-03978-2

Obesity can negatively influence walking cadence, reducing the overall intensity of daily activities and increasing the risk of weight gain. Purpose: Objectively describe the walking cadence of individuals’ long-term post-bariatric surgery.... Read More about Week and weekend day cadence patterns long-term post-bariatric surgery.

British Journal of Sports Medicine, 54(8), https://doi.org/10.1136/bjsports-2019-100786

Galileo Galilei’s quote “measure what is measurable, and make measurable what is not so” has particular relevance to health behaviours, such as physical activity (PA), sitting and sleep, whose measurement during free living is notoriously difficult...

Exploring occupational standing activities using accelerometer-based activity monitoring (2019)
Journal Article
Anderson, J., Granat, M., Williams, A., & Nester, C. (2019). Exploring occupational standing activities using accelerometer-based activity monitoring. Ergonomics, 62(8), 1055-1065. https://doi.org/10.1080/00140139.2019.1615640

Prolonged standing at work is required by an estimated 60% of the employed population and is associated with a high prevalence of musculoskeletal disorders. ‘Standing’ is expected to encompass a range of activities of varying intensity. This study ai... Read More about Exploring occupational standing activities using accelerometer-based activity monitoring.
