Comparison of the reliance of the postural control system on the visual, vestibular and proprioceptive inputs in chronic low back pain patients and asymptomatic participants.
Although proprioception deficits have been documented in chronic low back pain (CLBP) patients, little is known about adaptive strategies to provide postural control in these patients. Substitution of unreliable proprioceptive information with other afferents might be considered plausible.
