年龄和缺乏体育活动都可能导致平衡能力差。相反，体育活动可以调节老年人的姿势控制。我们研究了哪种类型的运动可能最有利于保持或恢复适当的平衡。研究对象为19名60岁以上的健康受试者，定期进行本体感觉（第一组）或生物能量（第二组）体育活动，21名仅定期步行的对照组。所有人都接受了动态姿势测试和下肢肌肉力量评估测试。对照组表现出最差的平衡和肌肉表现。第一组受试者的姿势控制效果最好，肌肉力量平均。第二组肌肉力量明显增强，但平衡控制质量较差。因此，本体感觉运动似乎对平衡控制有最好的影响。1999爱思唯尔科学爱尔兰有限公司版权所有。
Age and lack of physical activities may both be responsible for poor balance control. Conversely, physical activities may modulate postural control in elderly individuals. We examined which type of exercise might prove most beneficial to retain or regain proper balance. Nineteen healthy subjects, aged over 60, regularly practicing proprioceptive (group I) or bioenergetic (group II) physical activities and 21 controls only walking on a regular basis, were studied. All were submitted to a dynamic posturographic test and to a test evaluating lower limbs muscular strength. Control individuals displayed the poorest balance and muscular performance. Group I subjects had the best postural control with average muscular strength. In group II, muscular strength was significantly increased, but balance control was of poor quality. Proprioceptive exercise therefore appears to have the best impact on balance control. (C) 1999 Elsevier Science Ireland Ltd. All rights reserved.
