DOI: 10.1186/s40101-020-00229-7
Abstract: Background To detect deviations from a normal postural control, standard values can be helpful for comparison purposes. Since the postural control is influenced by gender and age, the aim of the present study was the… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/biology11010008
Abstract: Simple Summary Excessive movements, or inadequate timing in movement patterns, during running may contribute to the development of some running-related injuries. Specifically, excessive movement at the rearfoot, influencing lower leg rotation, has been a focus… read more here.
