Objective: To investigate the effects of backward gait training on balance, gross motor
function, and gait parameters in children with cerebral palsy. Data sources: PubMed …

Background Backward walking (BW) training is thought to impact balance performance
through improving motor system proprioception and gait characteristic, but relevant …

The first years of life represent an important phase of maturation of the central nervous
system, processing of sensory information, posture control and acquisition of the locomotor …

Objective: To compare the effects of backward walking training and forward walking training
on spatiotemporal gait parameters, and gross motor function measures in children with …

Background Backward walking training (BWT) can have a positive effect on balance, gait,
and functional mobility in neurological diseases; however, the effectiveness of BWT has not …

Animal locomotion requires changing direction, from forward to backward. Here, we tested
the hypothesis that sensorimotor circuits within the spinal cord generate backward …

Backward running (BR) is a form of locomotion that occurs in short bursts during many
overground field and court sports. It has also traditionally been used in clinical settings as a …

Previous studies found significant modification in spatiotemporal parameters of backward
walking in healthy older adults, but the age-related changes in the neuromuscular control …

Objective. Impaired static stability and proprioception have been observed in individuals
with knee osteoarthritis (KOA), which serves as a major factor increasing risk of fall. This …

Objective: To investigate the effectiveness of backward walking in the treatment of people
with gait impairments related to neurological and musculoskeletal disorders. Design …
