Age-related proprioceptive decline is not seen in lifelong skiing and snowboarding participants: Lessons for balanced active healthy ageing

JSAMS Plus, 2022
Objectives: Ankle proprioception is important for effective human movement and thus active healthy aging. Chronic ankle instability (CAI) may be a contributing factor in proprioception decline. Proprioception and aging research indicate that there is age-

Single Stance Stability and Proprioceptive Control in Older Adults Living at Home: Gender and Age Differences

Journal of Aging Research, 2013
In developed countries, falls in older people represent a rising problem. As effective prevention should start before the risk becomes evident, an early predictor is needed. Single stance instability would appear as a major risk factor. Aims of the study

The right supramarginal gyrus is important for proprioception in healthy and stroke affected participants: a functional MRI study

Frontiers in Neurology, 2015
Human proprioception is essential for motor control, yet its central processing is still debated. Previous studies of passive movements and illusory vibration have reported inconsistent activation patterns related to proprioception, particularly in high
