“…In SLST eyes open) maintaining balance, although difficult was still possible to a greater extent of time than SLST eyes closed because balancing under static conditions was strongly associated with the ability to perceive and process visual information, which is important for feedback based mechanisms for control of balance and partly with other sensory systems. Also lot of literature suggests visual acuity seems to be more prevalently reduced in diabetic patients [34,35] . Therefore, increased in TPD values led to decrease in SLST eyes open time.…”

Background: Diabetes is considered as a pandemic in both developing and developed countries and also a factor for increase in the rate of falls as it has potential to affect nervous system. Loss of balance is identified as a leading cause of increase in the risk of falls. Two Point Discrimination (TPD) can be a cost effective tool in early detection of impaired balance due to its role in sensory integration through mechanoreceptors and in turn providing compensatory postural adjustments. Thus, this study was aimed to determine the correlation between TPD and balance in patients with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM). Subjects and Methods: 149 patients aged 30-60 years having history of T2DM for 2 or more years able to perceive 10g of monofilament on the foot and being able to walk independently were included in this study. TPD was measured on plantar surface of toes for the patients in supine lying by Digital Vernier Caliper (DVC). Single Leg Stance Test (SLST) eyes open and eyes closed was measured for static balance. Timed Up and Go test (TUG) was measured for dynamic balance. Data was analysed using Spearman's correlation coefficient. Results: TPD showed moderately negative correlation with SLST eyes open (r =-0.296) and SLST eyes closed (r =-0.336) and showed a weak positive correlation with TUG (r =0.188) the p value < 0.05 for all. Conclusion: This study concluded that there is a correlation between TPD perception and Balance in patients with Type II Diabetes Mellitus.

Balance is paramount to safe and successful cycling, both in competition and recreation. Balance has been investigated in the return-to-cycling context, but its relationship to cycling performance is unknown. Our study aimed to analyse the relationship between balance, measured by common clinical balance tests, and cycling performance. Seven competitive cyclists participated in this cross-sectional correlational study. We collected field-based measures of cycling performance, including mean velocity, minimum and maximum velocity, mean corner speed, average lap time, and lean angle. Also, we measured balance via the balance error scoring system, the star excursion balance test, the lateral reach test, and the modified Bass test of dynamic balance. Strong correlations between cornering performance and cycling performance (r = 0.65–0.87, p < 0.01) were detected. Weak correlations between clinical balance tests and cycling performance (r = 0.33–0.53, p < 0.05) were observed. In conclusion, our study showed that improving cornering performance has the potential to improve overall cycling performance. We also found no clear correlations between our clinical balance tests and cycling performance. These weak correlations between postural control in standing and cycling performance suggest that standing balance and balancing during cycling are distinct motor control processes.
