DOI: 10.1097/brs.0000000000004235
Abstract: Prospective data of biomechanical feedback mechanisms of 56 subjects undergoing decompressive surgery were collected. Preoperative CSM patients showed significant alterations in spatiotemporal gait parameters and postural stability compared with controls. Likewise, angular momentum analysis demonstrates… read more here.
