Proprioception plays an important role in appropriate sensation of spine position, movement, and stability. Previous research has demonstrated that position sense error in the lumbar spine is increased in flexed postures. This study investigated the change in position sense as a function of altered trunk flexion and moment loading independently. Reposition sense of lumbar angle in 17 subjects w...

introduction: the purpose of this study was to compare the effect of a whole body vibration training (wbvt) protocol with a conventional physiotherapy (pt) program on knee joint position sense and balance after anterior cruciate ligament (acl) reconstruction. methods: the study was designed as a single blind rct, twenty athletes with unilateral acl reconstruction were randomly assigned to the w...

How do social comparisons over time shape perceptions of inequality? In thinking about subjective inequality, it is important to ask which social comparisons matter in establishing people's sense of relative social position and wider inequalities. These issues are discussed by drawing on a qualitative study of popular genealogy, which examines how people make sense of social position in the pas...

CONTEXT There is conflicting evidence in the literature regarding whether women with anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR) demonstrate impaired proprioception. This study examined dynamic-position-sense accuracy and central-nervous-system (CNS) processing time between those with and without long-term ACLR. OBJECTIVE To compare proprioception of knee movement in women with ACLR and ...
