Abstract
The DLD patients demonstrated a poor postural control ability and tended to rely on the visual feedback and wide-base standing posture. A rigid and restricted posture was also adopted during the perturbed WL task. A high level of ES activation was required to maintain their postural steadiness. This study reveals an aberrant pattern of postural control and trunk muscle activations in symptomatic DLD patients which potentially contributes to the development of beneficial rehabilitation programs.
