Purpose. The aim of this paper is to review the published studies on the characteristics of
impairments in the postural control and gait performance in diabetic peripheral neuropathy …

Stability is an important concern during human walking and can limit mobility in clinical
populations. Mediolateral stability can be efficiently controlled through appropriate foot …

Young, healthy adults walking at typical preferred speeds use step-by-step adjustments of
step width to appropriately redirect their center of mass motion and ensure mediolateral …

Background Humans partially maintain gait stability by actively controlling step width based
on the dynamic state of the pelvis–hereby defined as the “dynamics-dependent control of …

Objective The aim of this work was to identify relationships between complex and simple
clinical measures of reaction time (RT clin) and indicators of balance in older subjects with …

Background In elderly individuals an increased muscle strength contributes to the diminution
of the falls risk and associated adverse events. An increasing interest in lateral control exists …

Introduction: We determined lower limb neuromuscular capacities associated with falls and
fall‐related injuries in older people with declining peripheral nerve function. Methods: Thirty …

Objective Older patients with a distal symmetric polyneuropathy are at markedly increase
risk for falls and fall-related injuries. Despite this, few studies have investigated the effect of …

Objective The objective of this study was to determine which gait measures on smooth and
uneven surfaces predict falls and fall-related injuries in older subjects with diabetic …

Spatio-temporal parameters (STPs) are fundamental gait measures often used to compare
children of different ages or gait ability. In the first case, non-dimensional normalisation (ND) …
