ABSTRACT The Biomechanics Core (BC) will facilitate the training of investigators in the conduct of new and expanded research on how metabolic disease and inflammation interact with age-related disease to determine key health outcomes. The Specific Aims include: providing interdisciplinary expertise, training and technical support for the biomechanical and other physiological aspects of Research Career Development, a Pilot Exploratory Study, a Developmental Project (DP) and 8 External Projects (EPs, Aim 1); providing individual guidance on (Aim 2) and evaluating methods (Aim 3) related to mobility and functional status, the biomechanics of aging, and to the training of geriatric physicians and other clinicians in the biomechanics relevant to impaired mobility, falls and fall-related injuries, urinary incontinence and prolapse in the older adults; and assisting with computer modeling and simulation related to the above goals (Aim 4). BC-supported investigators will have substantial access to the UM Biomechanics Research Laboratory of the Department of Mechanical Engineering and the Mobility Research Center at the UM Geriatrics Center. The DP will enhance a BC-invented uroflowmeter by designing and testing a microsensor to measure mid-stream urine sodium in real time. This modification will challenge the existing paradigm of needing an indwelling catheter to accurately measure urine output and urine biomarkers, and the invention will help differentiate kidney failure from normal kidney function with low blood volume. The EPs include improving the treatment of hip arthroplasty, urinary incontinence and pelvic organ prolapse, preventing decubitus ulcers, and wearable sensors to determine real world physical activity and falls in older adults. By structuring the BC as a separate Core, the OAIC achieves economic efficiencies in terms of reduced equipment and service that would be duplicated if separate biomechanics components were pursued by individual OAIC projects. Since its inception, the BC has served as a consulting service to faculty performing multidisciplinary research on geriatric mobility problems. Consequently, the BC has positively impacted the quality of the research conducted in and beyond the OAIC, as demonstrated by its productivity in terms of peer-reviewed articles, the success of young investigators granted with K08, K12, K23, K99/R00 awards, and extramural research projects awarded by R03, R21, R01, P50 and RC2 mechanisms.

摘要 生物力学核心(BC)将促进对调查人员进行新的和扩展的培训 代谢性疾病和炎症如何与年龄相关疾病相互作用以确定关键健康的研究 结果。具体目标包括：提供跨学科的专门知识、培训和技术支持 试探性研究职业生涯发展的生物力学和其他生理方面 研究、1个发展项目(DP)和8个外部项目(EPs，目标1)；就以下事项提供个人指导 (目标2)和评估方法(目标3)与活动能力和功能状态、衰老的生物力学、 以及对老年医生和其他临床医生进行与行动不便有关的生物力学方面的培训， 老年人的跌倒和与跌倒有关的伤害、尿失禁和脱垂；以及电脑辅助 与上述目标相关的建模和仿真(目标4)。卑诗省支持的调查人员将拥有大量 进入机械工程系UM生物力学研究实验室和 UM老年医学中心的行动研究中心。DP将通过以下方式改进BC发明的尿流量计 设计并测试了一种实时测量中段尿钠的微型传感器。这一修改将 挑战现有的需要留置尿管才能准确测量尿量和尿量的范例 生物标志物，这项发明将有助于区分肾功能衰竭和低血症的正常肾功能 音量。这些措施包括改善髋关节置换、尿失禁和盆腔器官的治疗。 脱垂，防止卧位溃疡，以及可穿戴的传感器来确定真实世界的身体活动和跌倒 在老年人身上。通过将BC构建为一个独立的核心，OAIC在以下方面实现了经济效率 减少了如果使用单独的生物力学组件会重复使用的设备和服务 按独立的OAIC项目。自成立以来，BC一直为教职员工提供咨询服务。 对老年人行动不便问题进行多学科研究。因此，卑诗省积极地 影响了OAIC内外进行的研究的质量，正如其在 同行评议文章的条款，K08、K12、K23、K99/R00授予青年调查员的成功 R03、R21、R01、P50和RC2机制授予的奖项和校外研究项目。
