Possible Sex Differences in the Morphological and Functional Muscle Quality Reflected by Phase Angle: Implications for Muscle Quality Assessment

ABSTRACT Background and Purpose Phase angle (PhA), derived from bioelectrical impedance analysis, is a noninvasive indicator of muscle quality. It is unclear whether PhA better reflects the morphological or functional muscle quality in community‐dwelling older adults, and whether...

Exploring Patient Needs and Respective Contributing Factors Regarding Hospital and Community Pharmacists for Outpatients with Cancer

Improving the quality and safety of outpatient chemotherapy requires effective information sharing between hospitals and community pharmacies. However, achieving truly patient-centered care necessitates pharmacists to go beyond information exchange and develop a deeper understand...

Inter-system differences in modelling approaches for shoulder joint kinematics between markerless and marker-based motion capture during baseball pitching

Comparative data on markerless motion capture systems for upper-extremity kinematics during high-speed movements remain limited. We aimed to examine inter-system modelling differences in shoulder joint kinematics between a markerless motion capture system (Theia3D) and a marker-b...
