This study was conducted to determine the relationship between arch deformity with dynamic balance and static balance in students at SD Muhammadiyah Ambokembang. Arch deformity data was obtained from the pedis arch test, namely the wet footprint test, dynamic balance was obtained from the balance beam test and the static succession was obtained from a one foot stand test. This research was conducted on boys and girls at  Muhammadiyah Ambokembang class 1-4 Primary School. In this study, there is a relationship between arch deformity with dynamic equilibrium (p <0.05) with value (p = 0,000) and static balance with values (p = 0,000). Many factors can affect a person's dynamic balance, namely physical, biomechanical, musculoskeletal, and somatosensory factors. However, from the results of this study it can be seen that musculoskeletal factors in the form of a pedis arch form in particular the arch form deformity turned out to greatly affect the dynamic balance in the elementary school students studied. Arche deformities can affect dynamic balance because the flat foot shape without curvature is less able to function as a rigid lever for leveraging the body when the foot will leave its footing in the walking process. This study provides the results that respondents experience impaired balance, especially when doing a static balance test that is by walking on long beams.

Diferencias en función del género en el equilibrio estático y dinámico en estudiantes de educación primariaDifferences according to gender in static and dynamic balance in primary school studentsJosune Rodriguez-Negro, Javier YanciUniversidad del País Vasco (España) Resumen. Los objetivos principales de este estudio fueron describir, atendiendo al género, el equilibrio estático y dinámico de estudiantes de educación primaria (EP) mediante distintos test (MABC-2 estático, MABC-2 dinámico pasos, MABC-2 saltos pierna derecha, MABC-2 saltos pierna izquierda, standing stork pierna derecha y standing stork pierna izquierda), y analizar la asociación entre los resultados de los distintos test de equilibrio. 253 estudiantes de 2º a 5º de EP fueron evaluados, de los cuales 110 eran chicos (8.6 años, 133.7 ± 6.6 cm, 31.73 ± 6.1 kg, 17.6 ± 2,4 kg·m-2) y 143 chicas (8.7 años, 134.3 ± 9.1 cm, 32.9 ± 9.5 kg, 17.9 ± 3.3 kg·m-2). Los resultados obtenidos en el presente estudio muestran un mejor equilibrio estático en las chicas concretamente en las pruebas MABC-2 estático (p < .01, %Dif = -28.74%, TE = .3, bajo) y standing stork con la pierna derecha (p < .05, %Dif = 17.88%, TE = .2, bajo). Por el contrario, no se obtuvieron diferencias significativas entre chicos y chicas en el standing stork con la pierna izquierda, ni en ninguna de las pruebas de equilibrio dinámico (MABC-2 dinámico pasos, MABC-2 dinámico saltos con la pierna derecha y MABC-2 dinámico saltos con la pierna izquierda). Además, no se encontró ninguna correlación moderada, muy alta o casi perfecta (r > .50) entre los diferentes test de equilibrio. Los resultados obtenidos en este estudio muestran un mejor equilibrio estático en las chicas pero ninguna diferencia significativa atendiendo al género en el equilibrio dinámico. Abstract. The main objectives of this study were to describe, based on gender, the static and dynamic balance of primary education students through different tests (MABC-2 static, MABC-2 dynamic steps, MABC-2 jumps right leg, MABC- 2 jumps left leg, standing stork right leg and standing stork left leg), and analyze the association between the results of the different balance tests. 253 students from 2nd to 5th year of primary school were evaluated; 110 were boys (8.6 years, 133.7 ± 6.6 cm, 31.73 ± 6.1 kg, 17.6 ± 2.4 kg·m-2) and 143 girls (8.7 years, 134.3 ± 9.1 cm, 32.9 ± 9.5 kg, 17.9 ± 3.3 kg·m-2). The results obtained in the present study show a better static balance in girls, specifically in the static MABC-2 test (p < .01, %Dif = -28.74%, TE = .3, low) and standing stork with the right leg test (p < .05, % Dif = 17.88%, TE = .2, low). In contrast, no significant differences were found between boys and girls in the standing stork with the left leg, or in any of the tests of dynamic balance (MABC-2 dynamic steps, MABC-2 dynamic jumps with the right leg and MABC- 2 dynamic jumps with the left leg). In addition, no moderate, very high or almost perfect correlation (r> .50) were found between the different balance tests. The results obtained in this study show a better static balance in girls but no significant difference according to gender in dynamic balance.

This study was performed out to examine the effects of gymnastic exercises on dynamic and static balance in children. A total of 31 volunteer children attending primary school in Bing&ouml;l, 9 male experimental groups (MEG) and 8 male control groups (MCG) and 7 female experimental groups (FEG) and 7 female control groups (FKG), participated in the study. For the MEG who participated in our study, the age was found to be 7.60 &plusmn; 1.51 years, the heigth was 127.30 &plusmn; 10.90 cm, the body weight was 25.60 &plusmn; 5.41 kg and the BMI was 15.74 &plusmn; 0.99 kg/m2; for the MCG who participated in our study, the age was 7.25 &plusmn; 1.26 years, the heigth was 125.80 &plusmn; 9.70 cm, the body weight was 26.51 &plusmn; 4.73 kg and the BMI was 17.72 &plusmn; 0.66 kg/m2. For the FEG who participated in our study, the age was found to be 7.25 &plusmn; 1.26 years, the heigth was 122.63 &plusmn; 4.21 cm, the body weight was 26.51 &plusmn; 5.38 kg and the BMI was 17.72 &plusmn; 0.66 kg/m2; for the FCG who participated in our study, the age was 7.75 &plusmn; 1.25 years, the heigth was 123.50 &plusmn; 4.30 cm, the body weight was 26.75 &plusmn; 5.52 kg and the BMI was 17.55 &plusmn; 0.62 kg/m2. While basic gymnastics training was applied to boys and girls experimental groups for 8 weeks, 3 days a week, control groups continued their classroom training and were not included in any physical activities. Star balance test for dynamic balance measurement and flamingo balance test for static balance measurement were applied before and after gymnastics training. Analysis of the data obtained SPSS package program was used. The normality of the distributions of the variables and the homogeneity of the variances were determined by Mauchly Sphericity and Levene Tests. Analyzes between the groups, within the group and the effect of training were made with multiple measures analysis of variance (MANOVA) in repeated measurements. Post Hoc comparisons in significant values were determined by Bonferroni Test. The degree of significance (p &lt; 0.05) was accepted. According to the star balance test values ​​applied before and after exercise, test*group interaction was observed in MEG in both the right foot and left foot Anterior, Anteromedial, Medial, Postoremedial, Posterior, Posterolateral, Lateral, Anterolateral values. It has been determined that this interaction is caused by intra-group development in MGE (p &lt; 0.05). While anterior, anteromedial, medial, postoremedial, posterior, and anterolateral test*group interaction is observed for the right foot star balance test in girls, this interaction is due to intragroup development in the FEG (p &lt; 0.05). Although the result did not express statistical significance in the posterolateral and lateral direction values, the results of the FEG in both values ​​were determined to be higher than the values ​​of the FCG. According to the results of the left foot star balance test in girls, Anterior, Anteromedial, Postoremedial, Posterior, Lateral, Anterolateral values ​​are observed in the test*group interaction, this interaction is due to intragroup developments in the FEG (p &lt; 0.05). Although there was no significant difference in the values ​​of the medial and posterolateral sides, it was found that the measurements of FEG in both direction values ​​were higher than the results of the FCG. According to the flamingo balance test values, which is the other balance test applied in our research, according to MEG in MCG in both right foot and left foot tests; a significant increase was statistically observed in the FEG compared to the FCG (p&lt;0.05). As a result, it is possible to say that the 8-week gymnastic exercises applied in our research improve both static and dynamic balance in children. It can be explained by balance is an important component in all movements of gymnastics.

Research background. Aging constantly manifests itself not only in physiological changes, but also in cognitive ones. Exercise programs for elderly have been created aiming at avoiding risk of falling, but there is little known about changes in cognitive functions under the effect of exercise. The aim was to evaluate the effect of water-based and land-based exercises on balance and cognitive functions in elderly women and men. Methods. The dynamic balance of study participants (n = 32) was evaluated using Timed Up & Go Test, the static balance was evaluated with a 4-position Static Balance Test and the cognitive functions were evaluated with Six-Item Cognitive Impairment Test, the Cognitive Failures Questionnaire and the Trail Making Test. The participants were randomly divided in two groups: water exercise and land-based exercise. Results. After 8 weeks of exercise in water and on land, static and dynamic balance and cognitive functions improved in both groups (p < 0.05), no statistically signifcant difference was found between the groups except for the trail making test, which was performed more quickly by subjects who attended exercise in water. After the exercise program, the men’s dynamic and static balance (while standing in the tandem position) were better than women’s, but women’s standing on one leg position was better than that of men’s (p < 0.05). Conclusion. There were no statistically signifcant differences in cognitive function between men and women after intervention. After both exercise programs, dynamic and static balance (in the tandem position) in men were better (p < 0.05) than those in women, standing on one leg but women’s position was statistically signifcantly better than that of men’s.Keywords: exercise program in water and land-based, static and dynamic balance, cognitive functions.

Balance disorders have a high prevalence among elderly people in developed countries, and falls resulting from balance disorders involve high healthcare costs. Therefore, tools and indicators are necessary to assess the response to treatments. Therefore, the aim of this study is to detect relevant changes through minimal detectable change (MDC) values in patients with balance disorders, specifically with vertigo. A test-retest of a static and dynamic balance test was conducted on 34 healthy young volunteer subjects using a portable stabilometric platform. Afterwards, in order to show the MDC applicability, eight patients diagnosed with balance disorders characterized by vertigo of vestibular origin performed the balance test before and after a treatment, contrasting the results with the assessment by a specialist physician. The balance test consisted of four tasks from the Romberg test for static balance control, assessing dynamic postural balance through the limits of stability (LOS). The results obtained in the test-retest show the reproducibility of the system as being similar to or better than those found in the literature. Regarding the static balance variables with the lowest MDC value, we highlight the average velocity of the center of pressure (COP) in all tasks and the root mean square (RMS), the area, and the mediolateral displacement in soft surface, with eyes closed. In LOS, all COP limits and the average speed of the COP and RMS were highlighted. Of the eight patients assessed, an agreement between the specialist physician and the balance test results exists in six of them, and for two of the patients, the specialist physician reported no progression, whereas the balance test showed worsening. Patients showed changes that exceeded the MDC values, and these changes were correlated with the results reported by the specialist physician. We conclude that (at least for these eight patients) certain variables were sufficiently sensitive to detect changes linked to balance progression. This is intended to improve decision making and individualized patient monitoring.

AbstractIntroduction. The aim of the study was to examine the effect of circadian rhythm on dynamic balance performance and to determine the role of physical activity level, body temperature, chronotype, and gender in this possible effect. Material andmethods. Forty-two young male and female subjects with different physical activity levels participated in the study. A dynamic equilibrium test, a Star Excursion Balance Test (SEBT), was conducted at 9:00, 13:00, and 17:00 on three different days with at least two days of interval between tests. The test scores were calculated by dividing the reaching distances by the leg length and multiplying the quotient by 100. The physical activity level and sleep state were evaluated using questionnaires. Before each test, body temperatures were measured orally. Results. The best SEBT scores were found at 13:00 and 17:00 in the male group and in the trained group. The body temperature changes increased parallel to SEBT scores. The scores for the non-dominant leg were found to be significantly different in posterior test directions, and those for the dominant leg were different in anterior directions. Chronotype did not affect the test results. Conclusions. Circadian rhythm was found to have an effect on dynamic balance performance. Body temperature, gender, and physical activity level were also found to play a role in this effect.

<b>Introduction</b>: The ability to Reach quickly to changing external stimuli, to move the body quickly and precisely in any direction and to maintain the centre of gravity above the support base, all contribute to maintaining balance in dynamic conditions. The Limits of Stability Test (LOS) provides information on the state of dynamic equilibrium in a standing position.<br> <b>Aim</b> : Assessment of dynamic postural control in developmental age.<br> <b>Material</b> : 127 healthy children (65 girls and 62 boys) aged 6 – 17years. <br> <b>Methods</b>: All children underwent LOS test (posturograph NeuroCom) with registration of reaction time (RT), movement velocity (MVL), directional control (DCL) , maximum excursion (MXE) and endpoint excursion (EPE).<br> <b>Results</b>: At the age of 6-7 years, not fully developed jumping strategy and visual feedback mechanism in the control of movement were observed. All tested parameters were significantly worse in children aged 6 – 9 years. After this period, a significant improvement in TR and MVL was observed, with no significant changes in subsequent age groups while significant improvement in MXE up to 12 , EPE and DCL up to 13 years of age was noted. No significant gender differences were fund in the LOS test parameters. <br> <b>Conclusions</b>: 1 The LOS test showed significantly lower dynamic balance development in children aged 6 – 7 years. 2 The study showed a significant improvement in all parameters of the LOS test up to 13 years of age, which supports the termination of the function at that time.

Context:Proper functioning of the intrinsic foot musculature (IFM) is essential in maintaining the integrity of the medial longitudinal arch (MLA). Improper functioning of the IFM leads to excessive pronation of the foot, which has been linked to various pathologies. Therefore, training the IFM to avoid excessive pronation may help prevent some of these pathologies; however, it is not clear how to train these muscles optimally.Objective:To investigate the effects of 2 different types of IFM training on the height of the MLA and static- and dynamic-balance task performance.Design:Randomized controlled trial, repeated-measures mixed-model design.Setting:University biomechanics laboratory for testing and a home-based training program.Participants:24 healthy, university-age volunteers (3 groups of 8) with no history of major lower limb pathology or balance impairment.Interventions:One experimental group performed 4 wk of the short-foot exercise (SFE) and the other performed 4 wk of the towel-curl exercise (TCE). Participants were asked to perform 100 repetitions of their exercise per day.Main Outcome Measures:Navicular height during weight bearing, the total range of movement of the center of pressure (COP) in the mediolateral (ML) direction for a static-balance test and a dynamic-balance test.Results:There were no differences in the navicular height or static-balance tests. For the dynamic-balance test, all groups decreased the ML COP movement on the dominant limb by a small amount (~5 mm); however, the SFE group was able to decrease COP movement much more than the TCE group in the nondominant limb.Conclusions:The SFE appeared to train the IFM more effectively than the TCE; however, there were differing results between the dominant and nondominant legs. These imbalances need to be taken into consideration by clinicians.
