In this study, we assessed arm coordination in the backstroke over increasing speeds by adapting the index of coordination originally used in the front crawl. Fourteen elite male backstroke swimmers s...
The aims of this study were to compare the oxygen demand of back crawl in male and female competitive swimmers and to examine the effect of stroke mechanics on these costs. Twenty-two male and 16 fema...
To assess the method and results of applying a backstroke technique, we treated 43 patients with tibial shaft fracture using unreamed tibial nails (UTN). Of these patients, 27 suffered a closed fractu...
Kinetic (3-D force plate), kinematic (videography) and temporal characteristics of backstroke turns by 20 male and 16 female swimmers were recorded to identify and describe key elements of backstroke ...
This study assessed how stroking in backstroke varies with performance status and sex. A total of 36 subjects were separated into two groups of 18 by sex and further divided into two subgroups of nine...
The origin of the proteinacious matrix of the inner ear stones (otoliths) of vertebrates has not yet been clarified. Using the backstroke mutant (bks) of the zebrafish Danio rerio, which is characteri...
