Prior studies have suggested that dance may mitigate fall risks by enhancing muscular strength; despite its apparent safety, compelling evidence substantiating efficacy in prevention remains scarce. The objective of this study was to examine whether individuals with prolonged training demonstrate distinct biomechanical responses risk contrast those without experience. Methods: Thirty-two participants were recruited internally from a university setting (comprising 8 non-dancers, ballet dancers, korean and modern dancers) for investigation. Kinematic kinetic data scrutinized using Visual-3D software, subsequent analyses involved normalization, One-way ANOVA conducted SPSS 23.0 software. Results: Ballet dancers displayed longer stride lengths, narrower step widths, quicker walking speeds compared non-dancers; Korean exhibited shorter slower speeds, higher gait symmetry. Modern demonstrated the highest MTC during swing phase, while showed smallest HCV, thus yielding lowest RCOF. Conclusion: lower falls trips; rigorous professional fosters distinctive, stable gaits, superior joint control, robust body balance, all contributing decrease likelihood trips. Conversely, similarly reduced risks, varied styles be introducing some uncertainty mitigating

Abstract Background As a leading cause of disability, chronic low back pain (CLBP) is musculoskeletal condition often associated with impaired physical and cognitive functions. Due to its multi-factorial facets, the application multimodal interventions recommended. MultiMove intervention designed for CLBP patients, which combines motor-cognitive dancing exercises. This study aimed assess effects an additional standard inpatient rehabilitation on clinical functional outcomes in patients. Methods For this prospective, two-arm, controlled pilot trial, 27 patients (17 females, 10 males) undergoing 3-week rehabilitation, clinic Germany, were recruited. The group (IG, n = 15, 61.6 ± 1.8 years) received daily session addition while control (CG, 12, 63.8 2.2 followed rehabilitation.

The lack of synthesised regarding program design, dose, and delivery limits understanding factors influencing participation outcomes. This scoping review aimed to map the scope, range, effectiveness dance programs people, identify gaps opportunities future research practice. Searches across five databases (September 2023) identified 148 studies evaluating 116 (≥4 weeks) adults (≥55 years, N = 8060), interventions delivered clinical groups were excluded. Intervention design charted against TIDieR reporting checklist. Program outcomes including adherence, safety, positive tests into established taxonomies. Demographic information, details, implementation often insufficiently reported. Participant differed by age with underserved communities underrepresented. Programs varied extensively in key prospective 'active ingredients', approach, facilitator expertise, class size. While was physically safe, adherence rates are comparable other community exercise programs. Less than 40% assessments showed change, more consistent benefits physical endurance, strength, function, moderate impacts on psychosocial health, limited cognitive brain falls risk. meaningful, adaptable, low-cost adults.
