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

open access: yesJournal 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

Yoga for proprioception: A systematic review

open access: yesYoga-Mimamsa, 2023
Proprioception is an important and effective measure for neuromuscular function training. Researchers primarily use the joint position sense (JPS) to assess proprioception.

Proprioception mediates the association between systemic inflammation and muscle weakness in patients with knee osteoarthritis: Results from the Amsterdam Osteoarthritis cohort

open access: yesJournal of Rehabilitation Medicine, 2017
Objectives: To determine whether systemic inflammation is associated with poor proprioception; to confirm that systemic inflammation is associated with muscle weakness; and to determine whether poor proprioception mediates the association between ...

Proprioception in Insects [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Experimental Biology, 1938
ABSTRACTConcentrations of hair sensilla have been noted by a number of authors in the joints of the insect body and limbs. Special groups of such sensilla in the form of “hair plates” are described from three positions on the legs of Periplaneta americana. The hairs of the hair plates are mechanical sense organs with a slow rate of adaptation.

Acute Impact of Proprioceptive Exercise on Proprioception and Balance in Athletes [PDF]

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2022
This study aimed to compare the acute effect of a proprioceptive exercise session and a non-specific exercise session on knee position sense, and the static and dynamic balance of athletes. Sixty male athletes (19.4 ± 1.2 years) participated in a within-subjects repeated-measures study. Knee position sense in closed kinetic chain, and static (BESS test)

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

open access: yesJSAMS 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-

Assessing bilateral ankle proprioceptive acuity in stroke survivors: An exploratory study

open access: yesFrontiers in Neurology, 2022
BackgroundBilateral proprioception deficits were reported in stroke survivors. However, whether bilateral proprioception deficits exist in the ankle joint after stroke was unclear.

Beyond the Dorsal Column Medial Lemniscus in Proprioception and Stroke: A White Matter Investigation

open access: yesBrain Sciences, 2022
Proprioceptive deficits are common following stroke, yet the white matter involved in proprioception is poorly understood. Evidence suggests that multiple cortical regions are involved in proprioception, each connected by major white matter tracts ...

A composite robotic-based measure of upper limb proprioception

open access: yesJournal of NeuroEngineering and Rehabilitation, 2017
Background Proprioception is the sense of the position and movement of our limbs, and is vital for executing coordinated movements. Proprioceptive disorders are common following stroke, but clinical tests for measuring impairments in proprioception are ...

Effects on the Motor Function, Proprioception, Balance, and Gait Ability of the End-Effector Robot-Assisted Gait Training for Spinal Cord Injury Patients

open access: yesBrain Sciences, 2021
The primary aim of this study was to reveal the effects of end-effector robot-assisted gait training (RAGT) on motor function, proprioception, balance, and gait ability in patients with incomplete spinal cord injury (SCI).
