Influence of strength on balance in older adults
Many problems related to balance, strength and physical training for the elderly population remain unresolved. The purpose of this work was to investigate the influence of knee strength on static balance in the elderly and to determine specific physical training programs which could affect strength …

The Effect of Subthreshold Vibration on Lateral Reactive Balance
… subthreshold vibratory noise improves standing balance control in a diverse range of populations (i.e., young adults, older adults, and persons with diabetic neuropathy). However, there is limited literature examining whether these effects extend to reactive balance contexts. Therefore, the …

Physical and neurophysiological factors influencing dynamic balance
Static and dynamic balance are essential in daily and sports life. Many factors have been identified as influencing static balance control, two of which are carrying additional weight and localized muscle fatigue but their influence on dynamic balance in sport activities has not been fully …

Interférence cognitivo-motrice chez les personnes atteintes de sclérose en plaques
… disease which is associated with cognition and balance disorders. It is established that postural control requires congnitive resources and it’s possible to evaluate this interaction by using the dual-task paradigm (DT). Few studies have examined the effect of DT through the dual task cost (DTC) …
