Background Falls are major health concerns in older adults. Sit-to-stand transfer is an
important functional movement that can predict falling risk in older adults. Aging-associated …

Objectives This systematic review aimed to pool available evidence of differences in trunk
and lower extremity biomechanics during the different phases of a sit-to-stand (STS) task …

Although the ability to recover balance in the lateral direction has important implications with
regard to fall risk in older adults, the effect of visual input on balance recovery in response to …

Abstract Background Stand-to-sit (StandTS) movement is an important functional activity that
can be challenging for older adults due to age-related changes in neuromotor control …

Background An age-related decline in standing balance control in the medio-lateral
direction is associated with increased risk of falls. A potential approach to improve postural …

Sit-to-stand can be defined as a set of movements that allow humans to rise from a sitting
position to a bipedal standing pose. These movements, often categorized as four distinct …

Background The use of inertial measurement units (IMUs) in assessing fall risk is often
limited by subject discomfort and challenges in data interpretation. Additionally, there is a …

Background Age-induced sarcopenia negatively affects walking stability and increases the
risk of falls, which is the leading cause of accidental death in the elderly. Objective This …

Background Stand-to-sit (StandTS) is an important daily activity widely used in rehabilitation
settings to improve strength, postural stability, and mobility. Modifications in movement …

Background Ground reaction force during sit-to-stand motion is related to lower extremity
strength, and such measurements indicating weak muscle strength, may be linked to …
