A five-layer weft-knit with a spacer structure is proposed as a capacitive sensor. The two cotton yarn outer layers provide insulation. The two inner layers that form the parallel electrode plates are separated by using a compressible spacer layer.

Sustainability is one of the main concerns in the textile industry. To address this issue, three-dimensional spacer fabric bra cups are developed by using fully fashioned knitting to reduce the production of waste. Five bra cups with different types of surface yarn and shapes are proposed.

To investigate the effect of contoured insoles constructed of different insole materials, including Nora Lunalastik EVA, Nora Lunalight A fresh, Pe-Lite, and PORON Medical 4708 with Langer Biomechanics longitudinal PPT arch pads on offloading plantar pressure on the foot of the elderly with Type 1 or 2 diabetes during gait.

The aim of this study was to quantitatively compare the effects of contoured insoles with different materials on the kinematics of and kinetics changes in the diabetic elderly during gait.

This review and meta-analysis aimed to synthesize available empirical studies to examine the correlations between PA and MPA among adolescents and young adults. We also explored several potential moderators, including time of data collection, country or region, and type of population, associated with the relationship between PA and MPA.

Lower extremity stiffness simulates the response of the lower extremity to landing in running. However, its relationship with running economy (RE) remains unclear. This study aims to explore the relationship between lower extremity stiffness and RE.
