Postural Stability

1. Evaluate postural stability in subjects with forward head posture versus matching controls. 2. Evaluate gait parameters in subjects with forward head posture versus matching controls. 3. Investigate the correlation between postural stability and kinematic gait parameters in each group.

This study will examine a 12-week online core stability program for postpartum women, where participants will complete supervised sessions three times per week and will be compared with an education-only group. The intervention group will participate in supervised, real-time sessions via a video-conferencing platform, three times per week for 12 weeks. Exercises combine isometric and dynamic core stability tasks, progressing in difficulty over time. Dynamic postural control will be assessed using the lower quarter Y-Balance Test (YBT-LQ), while trunk endurance will be measured using the flexor endurance, extensor endurance, and side bridge tests.

This observational cross-sectional study aims to investigate the impact of cervical proprioception deficits on postural stability in patients with cervical spondylosis. Using pedobarographic analysis, the study will assess static balance parameters in affected individuals. The main question it aims to answer is: Does Cervical proprioception deficits affect postural stability in patients with cervical spondylosis measured by pedobarographic parameters?

This is an assessor-blinded neurophysiological study. Participants will be randomly assigned to a perturbation-based training (PBT) or a walking (control) group. Changes in postural stability and neurophysiology in the brain following PBT compared to walking exercise without perturbation will be investigated.

The aim of this study is to investigate the effects of exercises performed with stroboscopic glasses-recently gaining popularity in sports-on cognitive function, physical performance, and postural stability, which are among the key skills in athletic performance. The originality of the study lies in being the first to examine the effects of stroboscopic glasses-based exercises on basketball players. Hypotheses of the study: H1: Exercises performed with stroboscopic glasses have an effect on athletes' cognitive functions. H2: Exercises performed with stroboscopic glasses have an effect on athletes' physical performance. H3: Exercises performed with stroboscopic glasses have an effect on athletes' static and dynamic postural stability.

This study investigates the effects of virtual reality (VR)-based respiratory training on various physiological and cognitive functions in shift-working healthcare professionals, including paramedics and nurses. The research will evaluate how VR-guided breathing exercises influence: stress levels, motor reaction time and accuracy, attention and cognitive performance, motor skills and postural stability, sleep quality Participants will be divided into three groups: VR-based respiratory training group - performing guided breathing exercises in a VR environment. Music-based relaxation group - listening to relaxing music without structured breathing instructions. Control group - no intervention. The findings will help determine whether VR-based respiratory training is an effective method for improving stress resilience, cognitive function, and physical performance in shift-working healthcare professionals.

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn about the cause of dizziness and decline in walking ability in in older adults ≥65 years during chemotherapy treatment for colorectal cancer. Another goal is to investigate if a comprehensive geriatric assessment and three months' specialized physical group-based exercise three times/week can counteract muscle weakness, vertigo, instability, impaired walking balance, and neuropathy

This study uses a prospective cohort study design using a convenience sample to explore the sock's impact on various aspects of ankle function and overall stability. A secondary objective is measuring subjective changes in reported confidence levels in performing balance and stability exercises with and without sock
