Clinical Trial Summary

As Chinese-speaking children with dyslexia typically have different cerebellar sign behavior from non-Chinese-speaking counterparts, this study compared the effect of visual occlusion on the static balance between dyslexic and non-dyslexic children using the Chinese language.

Outcome

Type	Measure	Description	Time frame	Safety issue
Primary	Postural sway analysis	Root mean squared sway amplitude and sample entropy along the AP and ML axes	through study completion, an average of 1 year
Secondary	Stabilogram diffusion analysis of central of pressure	Trajectories of central of pressure will be analyzed with stabilogram diffusion analysis to reveal behavior mechanisms for practice-related variations in feedback and feedforward process for error corrections	through study completion, an average of 1 year
