Lower Limb Amputation Below Knee (Injury), Diurnal Residual Limb Fluid Volume Fluctuation
An Automatically Adjusting Prosthetic Socket for People With Transtibial Amputation
People with leg amputations often experience daily changes in the size (volume) of their residual limb. These daily changes can cause a prosthesis to fit poorly. They can also cause limb problems like pain or skin breakdown.

Stress Urinary Incontinence in Women
Perineal Ultrasound, Post-Void Residual, and Lower-Limb Alignment in Stress Incontinence
Stress urinary incontinence (SUI) in postmenopausal women is traditionally considered a local pelvic floor disorder, but emerging evidence suggests that spinopelvic and lower limb alignment may also contribute to continence…
