Tongue-placed tactile biofeedback suppresses the deleterious effects of muscle fatigue on joint position sense at the ankle

open access: yes, 2007
Whereas the acuity of the position sense at the ankle can be disturbed by muscle fatigue, it recently also has been shown to be improved, under normal ankle neuromuscular state, through the use of an artificial tongue-placed tactile biofeedback.

Ankle joint traumas rehabilitation methods

open access: yesBIO Web of Conferences, 2020
Traumas of ankle joint are the most common. Ankle injuries account for 20 to 30% of all traumas of the human locomotor system. During the life process, the ankle is subjected to sufficiently heavy loads, therefore joint injuries often occur.
