博士課程2回生のAnuradhi Bandaraさんの論文｢Diurnal variations in gait parameters among older adults with early-stage knee osteoarthritis: insights from wearable sensor technology｣がScientific Reports誌に採択されました。
よく膝のOAの患者さんは朝よりは夕方の方が痛くなると言いますが、歩容がどのように変化するかは明らかではありませんでした。この論文ではNECが開発したArrowgという靴内センサーを用いて初期のOAの方々の一日における歩容の変化を明らかにしました。

PhD student Anuradhi Bandara’s paper ‘Diurnal variations in gait parameters among older adults with early-stage knee osteoarthritis: insights from wearable sensor technology’ has been accepted for publication in Scientific Reports.
Patients with knee OA often say they are more painful in the evening than in the morning, but it has not been clear how their gait changes. In this paper, Arrowg in-shoe sensor developed by NEC was used to determine the changes in gait over the course of a day in people with early OA.
