タイトル: Smartphone usage during walking decreases the positive persistency in gait cycle variability著者: Yano, Shunpei; Nakamura, Akihiro; Suzuki, Yasuyuki; Smith, Charles E.; Nomura, Taishin抄録: Gait cycle variability during steady walking, described by the stride interval time series, has been used as a gait-stability-related measure. In particular, the positive persistency in the stride intervals with 1/f-like fluctuation and reduction of the persistency are the well-documented metrics that can characterize gait patterns of healthy young adults and elderly including patients with neurological diseases, respectively. Here, we examined effects of a dual task on gait cycle variability in healthy young adults, based on the mean and standard deviation statistics as well as the positive persistency of the stride intervals during steady walking on a treadmill. Specifically, three gait conditions were examined: control condition, non-cognitive task with holding a smartphone in f ...

This isomeric state can be excited by vacuum ultraviolet (VUV) lasers and ²²⁹Th has been proposed as a reference transition for ultra-precise nuclear clocks. To assess the feasibility and performance of the nuclear clock concept, time-controlled ex ...
