Purpose: Chronic ankle instability (CAI) causes maladaptive neuroplastic changes in the central nervous system, which may lead to high injury potential under dual-task conditions. This study aims to explore the effects of dual-task paradigm on the injury potential during landing among individuals with CAI.
Methods: Twenty participants with CAI (4 female and 16 male, 12 were affected with their right limbs and 8 were affected with their left limbs, 20.
Purpose: To investigate the effects of transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) combined with Bosu ball training on the injury potential during drop landing in people with chronic ankle instability (CAI).
Methods: A total of 40 participants with CAI were recruited and randomly divided into the tDCS + Bosu and Bosu groups. The people in the tDCS + Bosu group received intervention of tDCS combined with Bosu ball training, and those in the Bosu group received intervention of sham tDCS and Bosu ball training, for 6 weeks with three 20-min sessions per week.
