Examination Of Clinical And Laboratory Measures Of Postural Stability During Static And Dynamic Testing Between Stable And Unstable Ankles, Jason C. Mitchell Apr 2006

Examination Of Clinical And Laboratory Measures Of Postural Stability During Static And Dynamic Testing Between Stable And Unstable Ankles, Jason C. Mitchell

Human Movement Studies & Special Education Theses & Dissertations

The purposes of this study were to (1) examine the relationship between clinical and laboratory balance testing, (2) to examine the effect of functional ankle instability (FAI) on scored dynamic and static clinical balance tests, (3) to examine the effect of functional ankle instability (FAI) on a timed dynamic clinical balance test, (4) to examine the effect of FAI on a dynamic laboratory balance test, and (5) to examine the effect of FAI on a static laboratory balance test. Each subject performed four balance tests; (1) Balance Error Scoring System (BESS) Test, (2) Agility Hop test, (3) Laboratory Static Balance …

There are many reports about the associations between blood lipids, body mass index (BMI) and dietary cholesterol intakes both within the individual and between related individuals. The purpose of this descriptive research project was to investigate the relationships between LDL and HDL cholesterols, body mass index and dietary cholesterol intakes for a sample of African American (AA) mothers and their daughters and to attempt to separate the contribution of genetic versus environmental factors. Mother and daughter participants (n =42 and 66, respectively) were 12-14-hours fasted when blood samples were drawn, heights and weights measured, and 24 hour food recalls completed.
