The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between measures of floor surface slip resistance and an individual's peak utilized coefficient of friction (COFU) on the probability of a slip occurring during level walking. Video, kinematic and ground reaction force data were recorded simultaneously as subjects walked at a self-selected speed during conditions of normal and reduced floor surface slip resistance. Peak COFU during weight acceptance was calculated and the available floor surface slip resistance was measured using the variable incidence tribometer (VIT). Separate logistic regression analyses identified that knowledge of the available slip resistance (as measured by the VIT) in combination with an individual's peak COFU allowed for greater accuracy in classifying slip outcomes (89.5%; p = 0.004), while knowledge of only the available slip resistance reduced the accuracy of categorization to 78.9% (p = 0.021).
Leontiasis ossea (leonine facies) or cervical canal stenosis are rare complications of polyostotic fibrous dysplasia (PFD). This case report documents dramatic leontiasis ossea in PFD as well as post traumatic cervical cord contusion due to hyperextension injury in a patient with generalized PFD involving the cranio-facial bones, axial skeleton and entire spine with secondary cervical canal stenosis. Cervical cord contusion has not been reported earlier in PFD.
