Association between functional disability with postural balance among patients with chronic low back pain [PDF]
Frontiers in Neurology, 2023 IntroductionPostural balance is impaired in patients with chronic low back pain (CLBP). In addition, the swaying velocity can be affected by low back pain (LBP) dysfunction.

Impact of occlusal proprioception on static postural balance. [PDF]
Heliyon, 2023 Conflicting results on the effects of occlusal proprioceptive information on standing sway have been reported in the literature, partly due to the heterogeneity of the occlusal criterion studied and the experimental protocol used. In this study, occlusal functions, different mandibular positions and visual conditions were used to investigate the ...

The optimal method for improving postural balance in healthy young and older people: specific training for postural tasks encountered in personal physical practice [PDF]
Frontiers in Physiology, 2023 It is well known that regular exercise or physical activity (training) improves postural balance in healthy young and older subjects, but the optimal exercise or physical activity (i.e., likely to induce the greatest postural improvements) and the ...
