Effects of different neuromuscular training modalities on balance performance in older adults: a systematic review and network meta-analysis

Effects of different neuromuscular training modalities on balance performance in older adults: a systematic review and network meta-analysis

BackgroundNeuromuscular training (NMT) is widely utilized to enhance balance and reduce fall risk in older adults, yet comparative effectiveness across various modalities remains unclear. This study aimed to systematically assess and rank the effects of sensorimotor training (ST), whole-body vibrati...
