Background and aim Gait and balance disorders are common in the elderly populations,
and their prevalence increases with age. This systematic review was performed to …

Footwear interventions, including shoe insoles and foot orthoses, have the capacity to
enhance balance control and gait in older people. This review assessed the evidence for the …

Foot sole skin interfaces with the ground and contributes to successful balance. In situations
with reduced sensitivity in the glabrous foot skin, stochastic resonance (SR) improves skin …

Low levels of bipolar binaural white noise based imperceptible stochastic electrical
stimulation to the vestibular system (stochastic vestibular stimulation, SVS) have been …

Multisensory integration is essential for maintenance of motor and cognitive abilities, thereby
ensuring normal function and personal autonomy. Balance control is challenged during …

Background A good dynamic balance control and stable gait played an important role in the
daily ambulation, especially for older adults with sensorimotor degeneration. This study …

Movement science has traditionally understood high-dimensional fluctuations as either
antithetical or irrelevant to low-dimensional control. However, fluctuations incident to …

Fatigue can induce postural instability and even lead to falls. However, most current
methods to delay or reduce fatigue require long preparatory time, or large and expensive …

Minimum toe clearance (MTC) is an important indicator of the risk of tripping. Aging and
neuromuscular diseases often decrease MTC height and increase its variability, leading to a …

Introduction: Impaired somatosensation is common in older adults and contributes to age-
related loss of mobility function. However, little is known about whether somatosensation at …
