To the best of our knowledge, this is the first study of the reproducibility of fascicle length and pennation angle of gastrocnemius medialis in vivo during human gait. Twelve males performed 10 gait trials on a treadmill, in 2 separate days. B-mode ultrasonography, with the ultrasound probe firmly adjusted in the transverse and frontal planes using a special cast, was used to measure the fascicle length and the pennation angle of the gastrocnemius medialis (GM). A Vicon 624 system with three cameras operating at 120 Hz was also used to record the ankle and knee joint angles. The results showed that measurements of fascicle length and pennation angle showed high reproducibility during the gait cycle, both within the same day and between different days. Moreover, the root mean square differences between the repeated waveforms of both variables were very small, compared with their ranges (fascicle length: RMS = ∼3 mm, range: 38-63 mm; pennation angle: RMS = ∼1.5°, range: 22-32°). However, their reproducibility was lower compared to the joint angles. It was found that representative data have to be derived by a wide number of gait trials (fascicle length ∼six trials, pennation angle more than 10 trials), to assure the reliability of the fascicle length and pennation angle in human gait.}, language = {en} } @article{AkimbekovZhubanovaMansurovetal.2010, author = {Akimbekov, N.

Eleven male adults (23.9±2.2 yr) participated in the study. The participants exercised one leg at low magnitude tendon strain (2.97±0.47\%), and the other leg at high tendon strain magnitude (4.72±1.08\%) of similar frequency (0.5 Hz, 1 s loading, 1 s relaxation) and exercise volume (integral of the plantar flexion moment over time) for 14 weeks, 4 days per week, 5 sets per session. The exercise volume was similar to the intervention of our earlier study (0.17 Hz frequency; 3 s loading, 3 s relaxation) allowing a direct comparison of the results. Before and after the intervention ankle joint moment has been measured by a dynamometer, tendon-aponeurosis elongation by ultrasound and cross-sectional area of the Achilles tendon by magnet resonance images (MRI). We found a decrease in strain at a given tendon force, an increase in tendon-aponeurosis stiffness and tendon elastic modulus of the Achilles tendon only in the leg exercised at high strain magnitude. The cross-sectional area (CSA) of the Achilles tendon did not show any statistically significant (P>0.05) differences to the pre-exercise values in both legs. The results indicate a superior improvement in tendon properties (stiffness, elastic modulus and CSA) at the low frequency (0.17 Hz) compared to the high strain frequency (0.5 Hz) protocol. These findings provide evidence that the strain magnitude applied to the Achilles tendon should exceed the value, which occurs during habitual activities to trigger adaptational effects and that higher tendon strain duration per contraction leads to superior tendon adaptational responses.}, language = {en} } @article{BeerStreunHombachetal.2010, author = {Beer, S. and Streun, M. and Hombach, T. and Buehler, J. and Jahnke, S. and Khodaverdi, M. and Larue, H. and Minwuyelet, S. and Parl, C. and Roeb, G. and Schurr, U. and Ziemons, Karl}, title = {Design and initial performance of PlanTIS: a high-resolution positron emission tomograph for plants}, series = {Physics in Medicine and Biology}, volume = {55}, journal = {Physics in Medicine and Biology}, number = {3}, publisher = {IOP}, address = {Bristol}, issn = {1361-6560}, doi = {10.1088/0031-9155/55/3/006}, pages = {635 -- 646}, year = {2010}, abstract = {Positron emitters such as 11C, 13N and 18F and their labelled compounds are widely used in clinical diagnosis and animal studies, but can also be used to study metabolic and physiological functions in plants dynamically and in vivo. A very particular tracer molecule is 11CO2 since it can be applied to a leaf as a gas. We have developed a Plant Tomographic Imaging System (PlanTIS), a high-resolution PET scanner for plant studies. Detectors, front-end electronics and data acquisition architecture of the scanner are based on the ClearPET™ system. The detectors consist of LSO and LuYAP crystals in phoswich configuration which are coupled to position-sensitive photomultiplier tubes. Signals are continuously sampled by free running ADCs, and data are stored in a list mode format. The detectors are arranged in a horizontal plane to allow the plants to be measured in the natural upright position. Two groups of four detector modules stand face-to-face and rotate around the field-of-view. This special system geometry requires dedicated image reconstruction and normalization procedures. We present the initial performance of the detector system and first phantom and plant measurements.}, language = {en} } @article{BegingMlynekHataihimakuletal.2010, author = {Beging, Stefan and Mlynek, Daniela and Hataihimakul, Sudkanung and Poghossian, Arshak and Baldsiefen, Gerhard and Busch, Heinz and Laube, Norbert and Kleinen, Lisa and Sch{\"o}ning, Michael Josef}, title = {Field-effect calcium sensor for the determination of the risk of urinary stone formation}, series = {Sensors and Actuators B: Chemical. 144 (2010), H. 2}, journal = {Sensors and Actuators B: Chemical. 144 (2010), H. 2}, pages = {374 -- 379}, year = {2010}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{BegingPoghossianMlyneketal.2010, author = {Beging, Stefan and Poghossian, Arshak and Mlynek, D. and Hataihimakul, S. and Pedraza, A. and Dhawan, S. and Laube, N. and Kleinen, L. and Baldsiefen, G. and Busch, H. and Sch{\"o}ning, Michael Josef}, title = {Ion-selective sensors for the determination of the risk of urinary stone formation}, series = {Micro- and Nanosystems in biochemical diagnosis : Principles and applications}, booktitle = {Micro- and Nanosystems in biochemical diagnosis : Principles and applications}, address = {Warsaw}, pages = {74 -- 80}, year = {2010}, language = {en} } @article{BehbahaniMaiBergmannetal.2010, author = {Behbahani, Mehdi and Mai, A. and Bergmann, B. and Waluga, C. and Behr, M. and Tran, L. and Vonderstein, K. and Mottaghy, K.}, title = {Modeling and Numerical Simulation of Blood Damage}, year = {2010}, language = {en} } @article{BehbahaniMaiWalugaetal.2010, author = {Behbahani, Mehdi and Mai, A. and Waluga, C. and Bergmann, B. and Tran, L. and Vonderstein, K. and Behr, M. and Mottaghy, K.}, title = {Numerical Modeling of Flow-Related Thrombus Formation under Physiological and Non-Physiological Flow Conditions}, series = {Acta Physiologica}, volume = {198}, journal = {Acta Physiologica}, number = {Supplement 677}, isbn = {1748-1716}, pages = {185}, year = {2010}, language = {en} } @article{BehbahaniNamWalugaetal.2010, author = {Behbahani, Mehdi and Nam, J. and Waluga, C. and Behr, M. and Pasquali, M. and Mottaghy, K.}, title = {Modeling and Numerical Analysis of Platelet Activation, Adhesion and Aggregation in Artificial Organs}, doi = {10.1097/01.mat.0000369377.65122.a3}, year = {2010}, language = {en} } @article{BehbahaniProbstMaietal.2010, author = {Behbahani, Mehdi and Probst, M. and Mai, A. and Behr, M. and Tran, L. and Vonderstein, K. and Mottaghy, K.}, title = {Numerical Prediction of Blood Damage in Biomedical Devices}, year = {2010}, language = {en} } @article{BehbahaniProbstMaietal.2010, author = {Behbahani, Mehdi and Probst, M. and Mai, A. and Tran, L. and Vonderstein, K. and Keschenau, P. and Linde, T. and Steinseifer, U. and Behr, M. and Mottaghy, K.}, title = {The influence of high shear on thrombosis and hemolysis in artificial organs}, series = {Artificial Organs}, volume = {33}, journal = {Artificial Organs}, number = {7}, isbn = {0391-3988}, pages = {426 -- 426}, year = {2010}, language = {en} } @article{BerretzSkorupaSanderetal.2010, author = {Berretz, F. and Skorupa, S. and Sander, Volker and Belloum, A.}, title = {Towards an actor-driven workflow management system for grids}, series = {International Symposium on Collaborative Technologies and Systems (CTS), 2010 : 17 - 21 May 2010, Chicago, Illinois, USA / IEEE}, journal = {International Symposium on Collaborative Technologies and Systems (CTS), 2010 : 17 - 21 May 2010, Chicago, Illinois, USA / IEEE}, publisher = {IEEE}, address = {Piscataway, NJ}, isbn = {978-1-4244-6619-1}, pages = {611 -- 616}, year = {2010}, language = {en} } @article{BialonskiHorstmannLehnertz2010, author = {Bialonski, Stephan and Horstmann, Marie-Therese and Lehnertz, Klaus}, title = {From brain to earth and climate systems: Small-world interaction networks or not?}, series = {Chaos: An Interdisciplinary Journal of Nonlinear Science}, volume = {20}, journal = {Chaos: An Interdisciplinary Journal of Nonlinear Science}, number = {1}, publisher = {AIP Publishing}, address = {Melville, NY}, issn = {1089-7682}, doi = {10.1063/1.3360561}, pages = {013134}, year = {2010}, abstract = {We consider recent reports on small-world topologies of interaction networks derived from the dynamics of spatially extended systems that are investigated in diverse scientific fields such as neurosciences, geophysics, or meteorology.
