Introduction: Although chronic ankle instability (CAI) is a condition characterized by numerous ankle sprains and the recurring sensation of ankle instability, which result in activity limitations and participation restrictions. Repetition based balance training protocols on type of the balance exercises may improve the deficits often associated with CAI. The objective of this study was to dete...

In order to improve the shortcomings of whale optimization algorithm (WOA) in dealing with problems, and further accuracy stability WOA, we propose an enhanced regenerative based on gravity balance (GWOA). initial stage, nonlinear time-varying factor inertia weight strategy are introduced change foraging trajectory exploration range, which improves search efficiency diversity. random walk stage...

Forced global ocean/sea-ice hindcast simulations are subject to persistent surface mass flux estimation biases, for example, configurations with an explicit-free may not take into account the seasonal storage of water on land when constraining sea level. We present a physically motivated closure, that results in: reduced watermass drift from initialization; improved Atlantic meridional overturn...

objectives: the authors of this paper hypothesized that vibration stimulation applied by a vibratory orthosis improves balance in patients with parkinson’s disease (pd). in this study we evaluate this hypothesis. methods & materials: fourteen pd patients (12 male and 2 female) with mean age of 59.9±9.1 (±sd) years were participated in this cross- sectional study. using biodex balance system, th...

objectives: in this research we evaluate an individually family-based dohsa exercise programme of balance in the aged people and its effect on self confidence for performing common daily tasks with less falling could be influenced by training. methods: from a residential care center, five aged person were participated in this study. they were trained by dohsa method for six weeks. two types of ...

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Impaired balance, gait disturbances, and frequent falls are common problems in people with progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP). This case report describes the use of a modified body weight support treadmill training program to reduce falls and improve the balance and gait of a patient with PSP. CASE DESCRIPTION The patient was a 62-year-old man diagnosed with PSP. His ...
