Understanding the body’s kinematic/kinetic responses and motor adaptation to unpredictable gait perturbation induced by a split-belt treadmill in young and older adults
… the quality of life in older adults. Unexpected gait perturbations (e.g., slips and trips) are the major leading cause of falls, and it makes up approximately 59% of falls in the community-dwelling elders. Age-related changes (e.g., decline in muscle strength and the function of the neuromuscular …

Motor control strategies in response to unexpected disturbances of dynamic postural control in people with and without low back pain
… compensation strategies following unexpected gait perturbations in people with and without LBP. A novel treadmill stumbling protocol was tested for its validity and reliability to provoke muscular reflex responses at the trunk and the lower extremities (study 1). Thereafter, motor control …
