Bone Myoregulation Reflex and Postural Control in Vitamin D Deficiency
Recruiting now
Conditions studied: Vitamin D Deficiency
In brief
This observational study aims to investigate the relationship between vitamin D deficiency, postural stability, and neuromuscular control mechanisms in adults. The study will compare individuals with vitamin D deficiency and healthy controls. Participants will undergo a single-session evaluation including surface electromyography and postural stability assessments during standing tasks under different loading and vibration conditions. No invasive procedures, medications, or blood sampling will be performed. Previously obtained routine laboratory results will be used for vitamin D status. The study is designed to improve understanding of neuromuscular responses associated with vitamin D deficiency and to contribute to future rehabilitation strategies.
