Spinopelvic parameters, saggital balance and compensatory mechanics in younger and older adults with scoliosis

نویسنده

چکیده

Background Saggital balance is an important factor in postural alignment that has been linked to back pain, dysfunction and quality of life. It is reportedly even more important than coronal curve values. The Scoliosis Research Society (SRS) has recently proposed saggital balance threshold values for evaluating saggital vertical axis (SVA) and lumbopelvic compensations as defined by pelvic incidence–lumbar lordosis (PI-LL) (±50mm and± 10°, respectively).

Effect of Different Cognitive Loads on Gait Stability in Younger and Older Adults

Purpose: As many older people fall during dual tasks, we aimed to examine the effect of different cognitive loads on learning gait stability in younger and older adults. Methods: 10 younger (Mean±SD age: 25.91±3.42 years) and 10 older adults (Mean±SD: 66.65±4.28 years) were healthy volunteers without a history of falls. They were asked to do three tasks on a treadmill with cognitive load (none...

بررسی تأثیر بازآموزی تعادل چند حسی بر کنترل وضعیتی سالمندان

Objectives: It has been found that older adults fall or sway significantly more than younger ones under sensory conflict conditions. Considering the prospects of future increases in the elderly population size of Iran and the lack of proper postural control and the high costs of its probable consequences, this study investigated the effects of multi balance training on postural control. Meth...
