Summary
This study looked at how people with leg amputations (below or above the knee) use their muscles and adjust their body to stay balanced when the surface they stand on moves suddenly. Researchers measured muscle activity and movement patterns in 29 volunteers, including amputees and healthy individuals. The goal was to better understand balance strategies, not to test a treatment.
