Filter by:The objective of the study is to compare, with or without wearing an elastic proprioceptive knee brace, the functional proprioceptive capacity of the knee in patients suffering from proprioceptive deficit.
This project assesses the feasibility, reliability, and validity of the PROMT in children with a UMN lesion. The study questions are: is the newly developed PROMT a feasible, reliable, and valid tool to assess lower limb proprioception in children with UMN lesions? Does the PROMT differ between children with UMN lesion and controlled neurotypically developing peers? Further, does the proprioception modalities assessed with the PROMT correlate with motor function in this group of children?
This clinical study evaluates the acute effect of glycerol ingestion on performance (power output), weight, urine specific gravity, biochemical (antioxidants and lactate) and metabolic (indirect calorimetry) markers in international athletes in hot conditions. The investigators hypothesized that acute glycerol ingestion can prevent performance loss (power generated at submaximal intensity) in hot conditions. To justify this hypothesis, the investigators will measure the aforementioned markers, which could establish a cause-effect relationship between acute glycerol intake and decreased performance loss in hot conditions.
This study aime to investigate the effects of balance and proprioception exercises using two different methods (classical balance training and Balance System™ SD) in addition to strengthening exercises on dynamic balance, pain, functional status and quality of life in patients with knee osteoarthritis (OA).
Adults with diabetic peripheral neuropathy tend to fall more frequently than healthy population as a consequence of multiple sensorimotor and cognitive damages. In this protocol study, a randomized controlled trial is proposed using a sensorimotor intervention based on Feldenkrais method to improve somatosensory aspects and, therefore, postural control of participants.
Cerebral Palsy (CP) is a non-progressive neurodevelopmental disorder characterized by posture and movement disorders as a result of damage to the immature brain for any reason before, during or after birth.In addition to tone, postural and neuromuscular control in children with Cerebral Palsy; Problems are also observed in communication skills, perceptual and cognitive systems and sensory systems.
To determine effects of proprioceptive activities on hand function in chronic stroke patients
The loss of sensorial feedback causes gait impairment in hemiparesis. The studies show that proprioceptive impairment of knee is related to falling in these patients. The aim of this study is to investigate the effects of proprioception on balance and gait functions in hemiparetic individuals.

Distal radius fracture is the most common upper extremity fracture with peak incidence among older women after the fifth decade of life. Proprioception is one constituent of a complex Sensory motor control process. Proprioception requires the reception and central integration of incoming afferent signals. Although various sensory and motor deficits have been correlated with significant functional impairment after wrist trauma, limited research exists on the effects of proprioception and multi sensory training after distal radius fracture.
