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.

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.
