Parkinson’s disease impairs grip force release during a sinusoidal force tracking taskNARA Subscribed
The generation, modulation, and release of grip force underlie skilled manual dexterity and object interaction. Advancing age and neurological disease compromise force generation; the impact of age and pathology on the dynamic control of grip force release is unclear. The aim of this project was to determine the impact of age and Parkinson’s disease (PD) on grip force generation and release. Young adults (YA, n = 10, 18–28 yea...
Constructed water quality wetlands, designed to accept tile drainage and surface runoff, are a promising solution for reducing surface water nutrient loading from agricultural systems. In addition to their water quality benefits, these systems may also offset losses of migratory waterbird stopover sites resulting from historical and future agricultural drainage modernization. To assess this possibility, we developed spatially...
Age-related changes in force generation have been implicated in declines in older adult manual dexterity. While force generation is a critical aspect of the successful manipulation of objects, the controlled release of force represents the final component of dexterous activities. The impact of advancing age on the release of grip force has received relatively little investigation despite its importance in dexterity. The primar...
