Comparative study of Baduanjin and brisk walking on balance and stability in older adults by Ya-Guang Yu, Jun Zhang, Lin Wang, Dai-Feng Yu, Gong-Bing Shan, Xiao Fu

“…Results: (1) For the eyes-open two-legged standing posture, the center of pressure (COP) was more centralized in the Baduanjin group; the swaying range of the body, forward and backward displacement, and left and right displacement among the elderly individuals in this group were significantly lower than those of the other two groups. (2) In the tests for two-legged standing, one-legged standing, and tandem feet stance, the elderly in the Baduanjin group had significantly lower swaying trajectory of the center of gravity, body swaying ellipse area, and maximum vibration parameters than those in the brisk walking and control groups. (3) The 2nd pose of Baduanjin, which involves a considerable amount of knee bending and semi-squatting exercises for the lower limbs, proved to be beneficial for the lower limb joints and body balance among the elderly. …”

Closing the gap while standing still: clinimetric properties of a low-cost balance platform and a user-friendly app for posturography by Tom Vredeveld, John F. Stins, Annelies J. van Vliet, Vincent C.M. Tuinder, Stephan P.J. Ramaekers, Michel W. Coppieters, Annelies L. Pool-Goudzwaard

“…Parameters based on COP displacement were calculated, including standard deviation of displacement, velocity, pathlength and 95% predicted ellipse area. Results The concurrent validity of the WBB to measure COP in quiet standing still tasks was excellent for all parameters (Intraclass Correlation Coefficient (ICC) > 0.900, p < 0.001), apart from medio-lateral velocity (ICC = 0.571, p = 0.090 to ICC = 0.711, p = 0.057). …”

Pour une méthode diaristique en anthropologie by Pierre Depardieu

“…After having established a basic opposition between diary and narrative, as well as a few methodological elements, one can observe several first-level phenomena in the material (namely ellipses, the interweaving of narrative threads, focus effects, the frailty of reported speech, the constant contextualization of facts, as well as the absence of closure mechanisms) that could inspire considerations on the status of diaries in anthropology and the possible benefits that could be expected from their use. …”

La référence pronominale en français et en mandarin : une étude contrastive basée sur un corpus de traductions bidirectionnelles by Juan Sun, Qiang Zhang

“…In accordance with our expectations, it seems that French has a predilection for the use of pronominal references, whereas Mandarin is characterized by a high frequency of nominal repetitions and in particular of ellipses. This difference is in general linked to the specific features of the pronominal system in each of the two languages and explains to a large extent the striking contrast between the translation tendencies from French to Mandarin and from Mandarin to French.…”
