“…Visual sensory input plays an important role in sensorimotor integration for postural balance control 16 , 17 , 18 , 19 ) . The results of this study (seat-off, after seat-off and total duration of STS motion) were consistent with some of previously conducted studies 22 , 23 ) ; however, they were not in agreement with others 15 , 25 ) . The reason for the results of this study not being in agreement some previous studies could be the participants’ age range.…”

[Purpose] The purpose of this investigation was to assess whether or not restriction of visual information influences the kinematics of sit-to-stand (STS) performance in children. [Subjects and Methods] Five girls with congenital blindness (CB) and ten healthy girls with no visual impairments were randomly selected. The girls with congenital blindness were placed in one group and the ten girls with no visual impairments were divided into two groups of five, control and treatment groups. The participants in the treatment group were asked to close their eyes (EC) for 20 minutes before the STS test, whereas those in the control group kept their eyes open (EO). The performance of the participants in all three groups was measured using a motion capture system and two force plates. [Results] The results show that the constraint duration of visual sensory information affected the range of motion (ROM), the excursion of the dominant side ankle, and the ROM of the dominant side knee in the EC group. However, only ankle excursion on the non-dominant side was affected in the CB group, and this was only observed in the sagittal plane. [Conclusion] These results indicate that visual memory does not affect the joint angles in the frontal and transverse planes. Moreover, all of the participants could perform the STS transition without falling, indicating; the participants performed the STS maneuver correctly in all planes except the sagittal one.

“…The capacity to perform STS task is an indicator of mobility level and a prerequisite for basic activities of daily living such as walking [8]. There are many studies in the literature that examine postural control during STS in children with CP and they have indicated that children with spastic CP present major postural oscillations during the STS movement and complete the task in a longer time compared with typically developing (TD) peers [2][3][4]9,10]. Sitting function is crucial for the child to accomplish the upright posture against gravity and also essential to provide the postural control required for the functional movements of upper extremity [11].…”

Even though the effect of several factors on sit-to-stand (STS) performance of children with CP has been previously explored, the potential role of lower extremity selective control, trunk control and sitting function on the performance of STS has not been examined. This study aimed to investigate the association of trunk control and lower extremity selective motor control with STS performance in children with CP. We recruited 28 children with CP aged between 4 and 10 years whose Gross Motor Function Classification System levels were I and II and 32 age-matched typically developing (TP) children. Trunk control, sitting function, selective control of the lower extremities and STS were evaluated with Trunk Control Measurement Scale (TCMS), sitting section of Gross Motor Function Measure-88 (GMFM-88), Selective Control Assessment of the Lower Extremity (SCALE) and the STS outcomes of a force platform [weight transfer time, rising index, and center of gravity (COG) sway velocity], respectively. In all evaluations, children with CP demonstrated lower scores than TD children. A moderate correlation was found between total scores of TCMS, GMFM-88 sitting section scores and COG sway velocity during STS and a fair correlation between SCALE total scores and COG sway velocity in the CP group (r = −0.51, r = −0.52, r = −0.39, respectively). A fair correlation was found between SCALE total scores and the weight transfer time during STS in children with CP (r = −0.39). Based on these results, improving trunk and lower extremity selective control may enhance STS performance in children with CP.

“…Hennington et al18 ) explained that children with cerebral palsy needed an increased extension phase duration and the maximum vertical ground reaction force during STS with a low seat height. Roy et al19 ) reported that foot position influenced the asymmetry of the knee extensor moment during the STS task.…”

[Purpose] Sit-to-stand (STS) is one of the important functional tasks people perform throughout the day. This study investigated whether varying angles of knee flexion affect STS patterns in individuals with hemiparesis by using a foot plantar pressure measurement system. [Methods] Fifteen stroke patients with hemiparesis participated for this study. They performed sit-to-stand with three angles of knee flexion (70°, 90°, and 110°). We measured the trajectory of the center of pressure, peak plantar pressure, and symmetry index using a Mat-scan system (Tekscan, South Boston, MA, USA). [Results] As a result, we found that there were significant differences among the three angle conditions (trajectory of center of pressure, peak plantar pressure on the affected side, and symmetry index). However, there was no significant difference in peak pressure according to the knee flexion on the unaffected side. [Conclusion] In the current study, we found that stroke patients with hemiparesis had a compensated STS pattern according to knee flexion angles. This indicates that the peak value of plantar pressure increased and that the trajectory of the center of pressure widened as the angle of knee flexion increased. We also suggest that hemiparesis patients should be more concerned about proper knee angle for symmetrical STS pattern.
