The Effect of Hamstring Lengthening on Pelvic Tilt and Lumbar Lordosis
… knee flexion, hip extension and posterior pelvic tilt. Posterior pelvic tilt causes the lumbar spine to flatten (hypolordosis) which places pressure on the anterior structures of the spine, including the intervertebral disc. This increased pressure may predispose individuals to disc …

Determination of the Functional Relationship Between Lumbar Lordosis and Pelvic Tilt
… an altered lumbar lordosis by manipulating their pelvic tilt and torso alignment to maintain a normal plumbline. To investigate this hypothesis 10 healthy subjects (6 female, 4 male), aged 18-35 years, with no back, spine, or lower extremity injuries or surgeries were evaluated during static …

The Role of Pelvic Tilt in Femoroacetabular Impingement Syndrome, Hip Dysplasia, and Osteoarthritis
The general metadata -- e.g., title, author, abstract, subject headings, etc. -- is publicly available, but access to the submitted files is restricted to UT Southwestern campus access and/or authorized UT Southwestern users.

Investigating the mechanical relationship between the feet and low-back
… Excess leg rotations increase the anterior tilt of the pelvis and subsequently the degree of lumbar lordosis. Since lumbar lordosis has been suggested as a cause of low-back pain, it is speculated that foot orthoses could be used to treat and prevent pain to the low-back by reducing the …

Trunk Lean in Control and Osteoarthritic Gait
… Models were developed to define lateral thoracic tilt, as well as pelvic tilt. The trunk and pelvis frontal plane angles were used to describe trunk lean and pelvic tilt. Angles were calculated across the stance phase of gait. We analyzed the data, (i) by extracting discrete parameters (mean and …

The effect of backpack load on trunk kinematics of imitated pathological gait: a case study
… of the trunk including mean lateral trunk tilt, mean trunk inclination and mean anterior-posterior pelvic tilt, along with select spatio-temporal variables, were compared across loading conditions and among each gait type. Results: The kinematic variables of trunk tilt and pelvic tilt were …

Interrelationships between spinal and pelvic angles and hip muscle indices and their implications for workspace design
… angular measures. The hypothesis that spinal and pelvic posture is determined by body position was supported. The mechanism by which body position influences spinal and pelvic posture was investigated using angular indices of the lengths of the hip flexors and extensors. The hypothesis that …

The Effects of Age on Gait and Functional Movement Characteristics in an Older Adult Population
… For example, reduced walking speed and increased pelvic tilt are suggestive of compensation strategies to minimise falls. The majority of research has compared young adults (20-40 yrs) to older adults (≥ 50 yrs), categorising older adults into a single group regardless of actual age. An …

Kinematic and Kinetic Effects of Alterations in Lumbar Lordosis in People with Tight Hamstrings
… Specifically, the effect of hamstring length on pelvic position during gait and activities of daily living under normal and altered spinal position were investigated as part of this study in a motion analysis lab.</p> <p>First, a marker validation study was conducted to ensure the accuracy of …

Underactuated Exoskeletons for Lifting, Carrying, and Walking Assistance
… by a passive spring element to prevent excessive pelvic tilt and leg abduction during swing. The control system requires directional forces from the user at the tool handle of 19 N (4.3 lbf) on average. Current design limitations necessitate the user to provide up to 280 N (62.9 lbf) at the hip …

Innovations in adolescent scoliosis treatment
… (TK), which is related to sagittal parameters as pelvic tilt (PT), lumbar lordosis (LL) and pelvic incidence (PI). The equation TK =2 (PT+LL-PI) was previously validated for adolescents. The use of patient-specific rods (PSR) with measured sagittal curves could improve the congruence between the …
