Frequency content asymmetry of the isokinetic curve between ACL deficient and healthy knee
Tsepis, E.; Giakas, G.; Vagenas, G.; Georgoulis, A. (2004)The torque-time curve patterns of concentric isokinetic knee extension in anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) deficient patients usually present mid-range irregularities associated with the level of anterior tibial translation. ... -
A fuzzy decision tree-based SVM classifier for assessing osteoarthritis severity using ground reaction force measurements
Moustakidis, S. P.; Theocharis, J. B.; Giakas, G. (2010)A novel fuzzy decision tree-based SVM (FDT-SVM) classifier is proposed in this paper, to distinguish between asymptotic (AS) and osteoarthritis (OA) knee gait patterns and to investigate OA severity using 3-D ground reaction ... -
INFLUENCE OF VARIABLE RESISTANCE LOADING ON SUBSEQUENT FREE WEIGHT MAXIMAL BACK SQUAT PERFORMANCE
Mina, M. A.; Blazevich, A. J.; Giakas, G.; Kay, A. D. (2014)Mina, MA, Blazevich, AJ, Giakas, G, and Kay, AD. Influence of variable resistance loading on subsequent free weight maximal back squat performance. J Strength Cond Res 28(10): 2988-2995, 2014The purpose of the study was ... -
Isokinetic knee extension and vertical jumping: Are they related?
Iossifidou, A.; Baltzopoulos, V.; Giakas, G. (2005)The aim of this study was to examine joint power generation during a concentric knee extension isokinetic test and a squat vertical jump. The isokinetic test joint power was calculated using four different methods. Five ... -
Neuromuscular differences between prepubescents boys and adult men during drop jump
Lazaridis, S.; Bassa, E.; Patikas, D.; Giakas, G.; Gollhofer, A.; Kotzamanidis, C. (2010)The purpose of the present study was to determine the lower extremities biomechanical differences between prepubescent and adult males during drop jumps (DJs). Twenty-four untrained males (12 prepubescents, 12 adults) ... -
Position sense and reaction angle after eccentric exercise: The repeated bout effect
Paschalis, V.; Nikolaidis, M. G.; Giakas, G.; Jamurtas, A. Z.; Owolabi, E. O.; Koutedakis, Y. (2008)The purpose of the present investigation was to examine the effects of a repeated eccentric exercise on position sense and muscle reaction angle. Fourteen healthy women underwent an isokinetic exercise session on their ... -
The role of the descending inhibitory pain mechanism in musculoskeletal pain following high-velocity, low amplitude thrust manipulation. A review of the literature
Savva, C.; Giakas, G.; Efstathiou, M. (2014)BACKGROUND: Although the antinociceptive effect of high-velocity, low amplitude thrust manipulation (HVLAM) has been recognized by numerous systematic reviews, the underlying mechanism for manipulation-related pain relief ... -
Short vs. long length of rectus femoris during eccentric exercise in relation to muscle damage in healthy males
Paschalis, V.; Koutedakis, Y.; Baltzopoulos, V.; Mougios, V.; Jamurtas, A. Z.; Giakas, G. (2005)Background. We investigated the effects of short vs. long length of rectus femoris during eccentric exercise of similar range of motion on selected muscle damage indicators. Methods. Using all isokinetic dynamometer at ... -
Sitting bodily configuration: A study investigating the intra-tester reliability of positioning subjects into a predetermined sitting posture
Korakakis, V.; Sideris, V.; Giakas, G. (2014)Sitting posture predominates in lifestyle and workplace, but quantitative postural designation is limited due to divergence of methodology used in the studies. To date, no study has investigated the upper body's habitual ... -
Subject Recognition Based on Ground Reaction Force Measurements of Gait Signals
Moustakidis, S. P.; Theocharis, J. B.; Giakas, G. (2008)An effective subject recognition approach is designed in this paper, using ground reaction force (GRF) measurements of human gait. The method is a three-stage procedure: 1) The original GRF data are translated through ... -
