Traditional training recommendations for the elderly focus separately on relevant physiological fitness domains, such as balance, flexibility, strength and endurance. Thus, a more holistic and functional training framework is needed. The proposed agility training concept integratively tackles spatial orientation, stop and go, balance and strength. The presented protocol aims at introducing a two-armed, one-year randomized controlled trial, evaluating the effects of this concept on neuromuscular, cardiovascular, cognitive and psychosocial health outcomes in healthy older adults. Eighty-five participants were enrolled in this ongoing trial. Seventy-nine participants completed baseline testing and were block-randomized to the agility training group or the inactive control group. All participants undergo pre- and post-testing with interim assessment after six months. The intervention group currently receives supervised, group-based agility training twice a week over one year, with progressively demanding perceptual, cognitive and physical exercises. Knee extension strength, reactive balance, dual task gait speed and the Agility Challenge for the Elderly (ACE) serve as primary endpoints and neuromuscular, cognitive, cardiovascular, and psychosocial meassures serve as surrogate secondary outcomes. Our protocol promotes a comprehensive exercise training concept for older adults, that might facilitate stakeholders in health and exercise to stimulate relevant health outcomes without relying on excessively time-consuming physical activity recommendations.}, language = {en} } @article{MikielewiczKotliarBarraqueretal.2011, author = {Mikielewicz, Marek and Kotliar, Konstantin and Barraquer, Rafael I. and Michael, Ralph}, title = {Air-pulse corneal applanation signal curve parameters for the characterisation of keratoconus}, series = {British Journal of Ophthalmology (eBJO)}, volume = {95}, journal = {British Journal of Ophthalmology (eBJO)}, number = {6}, publisher = {BMJ Publ.

Architectural remodeling of the gastrocnemius medialis (GM) muscle is typically observed in the affected leg and may compensate force deficits caused by a longer tendon. Yet patients seem to retain functional limitations during—low-force—walking gait. To explore the potential limits imposed by the remodeled GM muscle-tendon unit (MTU) on walking gait, we examined the contractile behavior of muscle fascicles during the stance phase. In a cross-sectional design, we studied nine former patients (males; age: 45 ± 9 years; height: 180 ± 7 cm; weight: 83 ± 6 kg) with a history of complete unilateral ATR, approximately 4 years post-surgery. Using ultrasonography, GM tendon morphology, muscle architecture at rest, and fascicular behavior were assessed during walking at 1.5 m⋅s-1 on a treadmill. Walking patterns were recorded with a motion capture system. The unaffected leg served as control. Lower limbs kinematics were largely similar between legs during walking. Typical features of ATR-related MTU remodeling were observed during the stance sub-phases corresponding to series elastic element (SEE) lengthening (energy storage) and SEE shortening (energy release), with shorter GM fascicles (36 and 36\%, respectively) and greater pennation angles (8° and 12°, respectively). However, relative to the optimal fascicle length for force production, fascicles operated at comparable length in both legs. Similarly, when expressed relative to optimal fascicle length, fascicle contraction velocity was not different between sides, except at the time-point of peak series elastic element (SEE) length, where it was 39 ± 49\% lower in the affected leg. Concomitantly, fascicles rotation during contraction was greater in the affected leg during the whole stance-phase, and architectural gear ratios (AGR) was larger during SEE lengthening. Under the present testing conditions, former ATR patients had recovered a relatively symmetrical walking gait pattern. Differences in seen AGR seem to accommodate the profound changes in MTU architecture, limiting the required fascicle shortening velocity. Overall, the contractile behavior of the GM fascicles does not restrict length- or velocity-dependent force potentials during this locomotor task.}, language = {en} } @article{KotliarHauserOrtneretal.2017, author = {Kotliar, Konstantin and Hauser, Christine and Ortner, Marion and Muggenthaler, Claudia and Diehl-Schmid, Janine and Angermann, Susanne and Hapfelmeier, Alexander and Schmaderer, Christoph and Grimmer, Timo}, title = {Altered neurovascular coupling as measured by optical imaging: a biomarker for Alzheimer's disease}, series = {Scientific Reports}, volume = {7}, journal = {Scientific Reports}, number = {1}, publisher = {Springer Nature}, address = {Cham}, issn = {2045-2322}, doi = {10.1038/s41598-017-13349-5}, pages = {1 -- 11}, year = {2017}, language = {en} } @article{KotliarOrtnerConradietal.2022, author = {Kotliar, Konstantin and Ortner, Marion and Conradi, Anna and Hacker, Patricia and Hauser, Christine and G{\"u}nthner, Roman and Moser, Michaela and Muggenthaler, Claudia and Diehl-Schmid, Janine and Priller, Josef and Schmaderer, Christoph and Grimmer, Timo}, title = {Altered retinal cerebral vessel oscillation frequencies in Alzheimer's disease compatible with impaired amyloid clearance}, series = {Neurobiology of Aging}, volume = {120}, journal = {Neurobiology of Aging}, publisher = {Elsevier}, address = {Amsterdam}, issn = {0197-4580}, doi = {10.1016/j.neurobiolaging.2022.08.012}, pages = {117 -- 127}, year = {2022}, abstract = {Retinal vessels are similar to cerebral vessels in their structure and function.

We aimed to elucidate whether retinal vessel oscillations are altered in Alzheimer's disease (AD) at the stage of dementia or mild cognitive impairment (MCI). Seventeen patients with mild-to-moderate dementia due to AD (ADD); 23 patients with MCI due to AD, and 18 cognitively healthy controls (HC) were examined using Dynamic Retinal Vessel Analyzer. Oscillatory temporal changes of retinal vessel diameters were evaluated using mathematical signal analysis. Especially at moderately low frequencies around 0.1 Hz, arterial oscillations in ADD and MCI significantly prevailed over HC oscillations and correlated with disease severity. The pronounced retinal arterial vasomotion at moderately low frequencies in the ADD and MCI groups would be compatible with the view of a compensatory upregulation of paravascular drainage in AD and strengthen the amyloid clearance hypothesis.}, language = {en} } @article{SchaelAtanasyanBerdugoetal.2019, author = {Schael, S. and Atanasyan, A. and Berdugo, J. and Bretz, T. and Czupalla, Markus and Dachwald, Bernd and Doetinchem, P. von and Duranti, M. and Gast, H. and Karpinski, W. and Kirn, T. and L{\"u}belsmeyer, K. and Ma{\~n}a, C. and Marrocchesi, P.S. and Mertsch, P. and Moskalenko, I.V. and Schervan, T. and Schluse, M. and Schr{\"o}der, K.-U. and Schultz von Dratzig, A. and Senatore, C. and Spies, L. and Wakely, S.P. and Wlochal, M. and Uglietti, D. and Zimmermann, J.}, title = {AMS-100: The next generation magnetic spectrometer in space - An international science platform for physics and astrophysics at Lagrange point 2}, series = {Nuclear Instruments and Methods in Physics Research Section A: Accelerators, Spectrometers, Detectors and Associated Equipment}, volume = {944}, journal = {Nuclear Instruments and Methods in Physics Research Section A: Accelerators, Spectrometers, Detectors and Associated Equipment}, number = {162561}, publisher = {Elsevier}, address = {Amsterdam}, issn = {0168-9002}, doi = {10.1016/j.nima.2019.162561}, year = {2019}, language = {en} } @article{StaatVu2004, author = {Staat, Manfred and Vu, Duc-Khoi}, title = {An Algorithm for Shakedown Analysis for Materials with Temperature Dependent Yield Stress}, series = {Proceedings in Applied Mathematics and Mechanics (PAMM). 4 (2004), H. 1}, journal = {Proceedings in Applied Mathematics and Mechanics (PAMM). 4 (2004), H. 1}, isbn = {1617-7061}, pages = {231 -- 233}, year = {2004}, language = {en} } @article{VuStaat2004, author = {Vu, Duc-Khoi and Staat, Manfred}, title = {An algorithm for shakedown analysis of structure with temperature dependent yield stress}, year = {2004}, abstract = {This work is an attempt to answer the question: How to use convex programming in shakedown analysis of structures made of materials with temperature-dependent properties.
