A Space-Gamified Approach to Examine Muscle Contraction Behaviour in Children and Adolescents with Spastic Cerebral Palsy: Feasibility, Acceptability and Repeatbility

In this study we investigated feasibility, acceptance and repeatability of a space-gamified measurement procedure with children and adolescents with and without spastic cerebral palsy. The measurement procedure was created to investigate active musle mechanics and function. The presented raw data were collected from 12 study participants with and 12 without spastic cerebral palsy on two visits per participant.
The folder contains two types of files. Files with the name structure "Frame-CP_SubjectIDVisit.txt" contain raw signals of EMG (tibialis anterior, soleus and lateral gastrocnemius), ankle angle, torque and trigger of the whole measurement. Files with the name structure "Frame-C-cal_Month.txt" contain monthly calibration measurements of the raw torque signal. For calibration the signal of a 1 m lever was recorded without load, with 5 kg load and 10 kg load, creating a two step signal representing 0 Nm, 49.05 and 98.10 Nm, respectively.
Additionally, the file "Demographics.csv" contains demographic data of all participants.

本研究针对伴或不伴痉挛型脑性瘫痪（spastic cerebral palsy）的儿童与青少年群体，探究了空间游戏化测量流程的可行性、接受度与可重复性。本测量流程的设计初衷为探究主动肌肉力学与功能。本次公开的原始数据采集自24名研究参与者，其中伴与不伴痉挛型脑性瘫痪者各12名，每名参与者完成两次随访采样。
本数据集文件夹包含两类文件：命名格式为"Frame-CP_SubjectIDVisit.txt"的文件存储肌电图（electromyography, EMG）（胫前肌、比目鱼肌及腓肠外侧肌）、踝关节角度、扭矩及完整测量流程的触发信号原始数据；命名格式为"Frame-C-cal_Month.txt"的文件则存储原始扭矩信号的月度校准测量数据。在校准流程中，我们记录了1米杠杆分别在无负载、5kg负载及10kg负载条件下的信号，生成对应0 Nm、49.05 Nm及98.10 Nm的两步式信号。
此外，文件"Demographics.csv"存储了所有参与者的人口统计学资料。
