This paper presents an assessment of the influence of isometric rotation of the lower limb in a standing position on the functioning of the muscles stabilizing the knee joint in the frontal plane with the use of modeling the loads on the musculoskeletal system. Methods: The research was carried out in the AnyBody Modeling System software, performing multi-variant simulations of the musculoskeletal system during isometric rotation of the lower limbs. The simulations were carried out using as input data the values of rotating moments and the ground reaction forces acting on foot segments, which were measured using the proprietary Rotenso device and the position of the body segments. Results: The result is the muscular activity of the lower limbs of the selected muscle groups during isometric rotation. Muscle activity was recorded for Sartorius, Tensor fasciae latae, Iliopsoas, Gluteus minimus, Gluteus medius, Gluteus maximus, Piriformis, Quadratus femoris, Obturator internus, Obturator externus, Gemellus inferior, Gemellus superior. Conclusions: Performing isometric rotation allowed for the activation of most of the knee joint stabilizing muscles and rotators of the lower limb. The results indicate that lower limb rotation exercises can be used in physiotherapy in patients with valgus knee.

The study aimed to examine the influence of providing information about reacting to the heard musical stimuli while treadmill walking on physiological signals of participants. The study group consisted of 30 adults: group 1 was not informed how to react, group 2 received an instruction to adjust the frequency of steps to the music. The gait was carried out on a Zebris FDM-S treadmill for various sound stimuli using the Empatica E4 band to acquire electrodermal activity and heart rate. Information about moving to the stimuli did not change how the subjects responded physiologically during the test.

Celem badania było sprawdzenie, czy informacje o sposobie reagowania na słyszane bodźce muzyczne podczas chodzenia na bieżni istotnie wpływają na sygnały fizjologiczne uczestników. W badaniu uczestniczyło 30 dorosłych: grupa 1 nie została poinformowana o tym, jak reagować na słyszane dźwięki, grupa 2 otrzymała polecenie dostosowania częstotliwości kroków do muzyki. Chód rejestrowano na bieżni Zebris FDM-S, a do akwizycji sygnałów fizjologicznych wykorzystano opaskę Empatica E4. Informacje o tym, jak reagować na bodźce nie zmieniały sygnałów fizjologicznych u badanych.

The quality of body posture and its balance depends on the efficiency of the receptors, the good work of the central nervous system integrating and coordinating the postural system and the effective musculoskeletal system. Physical activity of people with intellectual disability can stimulate the processes of improving the posture and its postural stability, improving the quality of life. Methods: The study was conducted in 2017. 20 randomly selected volleyball players with intellectual disabilities and 10 healthy players took part in it. Body posture was recorded using a photogrammetric system. To evaluate the use of the Frohner Posture Index and the Dolphens classification, stability of the posture was assessed on the Zebris FDM power plate, analyzing the basic stabilographic parameters sway path and sway area. Results: Athletes with intellectual disabilities had significantly poorer posture and body balance than healthy players. There were no differences in postural stability between the groups studied. Some linear correlations were found between the quality of posture and balance and stabilographic variables. Conclusions: Incorrect postural patterns, observed in people with intellectual disabilities, require the development of special recovery programs. Qualified physical activity can help them improve their balance systems, reducing the risk of falls and injuries. The lack of the possibility of an unequivocal relationship between the quality of body posture and its stability requires research on a larger research material. New evaluation methods used (Frohner Posture index and Dolphens classification) confirmed their usefulness and gave new possibilities of application in postural research.
