    Abstract The majority of human gait modeling is based on hip, foot or thigh acceleration. The regeneration accuracy of these modeling approaches is not very high. This paper presents a harmonic approach to modeling human gait during level walking based on gyroscopic signals for a single thigh-mounted Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU) and the flexion-extension derived from a single thigh-mounted IMU. The thigh angle can be modeled with five significant harmonics, with a regeneration accuracy of over 0.999 correlation and less than 0.5° RMSE per stride cycle. Comparable regeneration accuracies can be achieved with nine significant harmonics for the gyro signal. The fundamental frequency of the harmonic model can be estimated using the stride time, with an error level of 0.0479% (±0.0029%). Six commonly observed stride patterns, and harmonic models of thigh angle and gyro signal for those stride patterns, are presented in this paper. These harmonic models can be used to predict or classify the strides of walking trials, and the results are presented herein. Harmonic models may also be used for activity recognition. It has shown that human gait in level walking can be modeled with a harmonic model of thigh angle or gyro signal, using a single thigh-mounted IMU, to higher accuracies than existing techniques.

    Abstract Gesture recognition is a mechanism by which a system recognizes an expressive and purposeful action made by a user's body. Hand-gesture recognition (HGR) is a staple piece of gesture-recognition literature and has been keenly researched over the past 40 years. Over this time, HGR solutions have varied in medium, method, and application. Modern developments in the areas of machine perception have seen the rise of single-camera, skeletal model, hand-gesture identification algorithms, such as media pipe hands (MPH). This paper evaluates the applicability of these modern HGR algorithms within the context of alternative control. Specifically, this is achieved through the development of an HGR-based alternative-control system capable of controlling of a quad-rotor drone. The technical importance of this paper stems from the results produced during the novel and clinically sound evaluation of MPH, alongside the investigatory framework used to develop the final HGR algorithm. The evaluation of MPH highlighted the Z-axis instability of its modelling system which reduced the landmark accuracy of its output from 86.7% to 41.5%. The selection of an appropriate classifier complimented the computationally lightweight nature of MPH whilst compensating for its instability, achieving a classification accuracy of 96.25% for eight single-hand static gestures. The success of the developed HGR algorithm ensured that the proposed alternative-control system could facilitate intuitive, computationally inexpensive, and repeatable drone control without requiring specialised equipment.

    Abstract The intestinal epithelial layer is susceptible to damage by chemical, physiological and mechanical stress. While it is essential to maintain the integrity of epithelium, the biochemical pathways that contribute to the barrier function have not been completely investigated. Here we demonstrate an aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AHR)-dependent mechanism facilitating the production of the antimicrobial peptide AMP regenerating islet-derived protein 3 gamma (REG3G), which is essential for intestinal homeostasis. Genetic ablation of AHR in mice impairs pSTAT3-mediated REG3G expression and increases bacterial numbers of Segmented filamentous bacteria (SFB) and Akkermansia muciniphila in the small intestine. Studies with tissue-specific conditional knockout mice revealed that the presence of AHR in the epithelial cells of the small intestine is not required for the production of REG3G through the phosphorylated STAT3-mediated pathway. However, immune-cell-specific AHR activity is necessary for normal expression of REG3G in all regions of the small intestine. A diet rich in broccoli, capable of inducing AHR activity, increases REG3G production when compared to a semi-purified diet that is devoid of ligands that can potentially activate the AHR, thus highlighting the importance of AHR in antimicrobial function. Overall, these data suggest that homeostatic antimicrobial REG3G production is increased by an AHR pathway intrinsic to the immune cells in the small intestine.

    Abstract Objectives: Golf is a popular sport in older adults and this same population has an increasing prevalence of osteoarthritis affecting major joints such as the knee. To the authors' knowledge, the effect of Total Knee Arthroplasty (TKA) on the movements in the golf swing has not been extensively investigated despite the large prevalence of golfers who have undergone TKA. We aimed to determine lower limb joint kinematics during the golf swing and whether these are influenced following TKA.
    Methods: A case- control study was undertaken with ten right-handed golfers who had undergone TKA (cruciate-retaining single radius implant) and five matched golfers with native knees. Each golfer performed five swings with a driver whilst being recorded at 200 ​Hz by a ten-camera motion capture system. Knee and hip three-dimensional joint angles (JA) and joint angular velocities (JAV) were calculated and statistically compared between the groups at six swing events.
    Results: The left knee demonstrated large effect sizes for lower external rotation during take away, mid (p ​= ​0.01) and top of backswing in the TKA group. In contrast, the right knee demonstrated large effect sizes for lower external rotation in the TKA group during the downswing, contact and follow-through phases. There were no differences in knee flexion/extension, ab/adduction, or JAV between the groups. Both hips demonstrated statistically significantly (p ​= ​0.02 for left and p ​= ​0.04 for right) lower flexion in the TKA group during the takeaway swing event, and lower internal rotation in the backswing and greater external rotation in the downswing of the right hip.
    Conclusion: Normal knee kinematics were observed during the golf swing following TKA, with the exception of reduced external rotation in the left knee during the backswing and the right during the down swing. The differences demonstrated in the hip motion indicate that they may make compensatory movements to adjust to the reduced external rotation demonstrated in the knee.
