Shanghai Jiao Tong University Affiliated Sixth People's Hospital 2 articles published in JoVE Neuroscience Evaluating Postural Control and Lower-extremity Muscle Activation in Individuals with Chronic Ankle Instability Lulu Yin1, Zhangqi Lai2, Xiaoyue Hu2, Kun Liu3, Lin Wang2 1Department of Critical Care Medicine, Shanghai Tenth People's Hospital, School of Medicine, Tongji University, 2School of Kinesiology, Shanghai University of Sport, 3 Individuals with chronic ankle instability (CAI) exhibit postural control deficiency and delayed muscle activation of lower extremities. Computerized dynamic posturography combined with surface electromyography provides insights into the coordination of the visual, somatosensory, and vestibular systems with muscle activation regulation to maintain postural stability in individuals with CAI. Biochemistry A Colorimetric Assay of Citrate Synthase Activity in Drosophila Melanogaster Ping Wei*1, Qihong Liu*2, Wen Xue2, Jiwu Wang2 1 We present a protocol for a colorimetric assay of citrate synthase activity for quantification of intact mitochondrial mass in Drosophila tissue homogenates.
