Alterations in Cortical Activation Among Individuals With Chronic Ankle Instability During Single-Limb Postural Control

Abstract

The CAI group displayed large differences in SMA cortical-activation variability. Greater variations in cortical activation may be necessary for similar static postural-control outcomes among individuals with CAI. Consequently, variations in cortical activation for these areas provide evidence for an altered neural mechanism of postural control among populations with CAI.
