Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This study will be conducted to investigate the influence of body mass index (BMI) on core stability (CS) in healthy subjects. The participants in this study will be 90 healthy subjects with right dominant lower limb (49 females and 49 males) they will be recruited from College of Applied Medical Sciences, Jazan University.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Subjects will be categorized according to BMI into three groups:

Group I (normal subjects): 30 individuals (15 male, and 15 female students) with (BMI\<25 kg//m\^2)) Group II (overweight subjects): 30 individuals (15 male, and 15 female students) with (BMI, 25-30 kg//m\^2)).

Group III (obese subjects): 30 individuals (15 male, and 15 female students) (BMI\>30 kg//m\^2)).

Motor control element of CS will be investigated by assessing bilateral static balance with open and close eye, right foot balance test, and dynamic balance test using Prokin System for balance. Data of this study will be statistically analyzed by performing descriptive (Mean and standard deviation) and inferential statistics (One way ANOVA, Unpaired T test) at level of significance p=\<0.05.

Allocation Method

RANDOMIZED

Intervention Model

FACTORIAL

3x3 factorial design, according to body mass index (Independent variable)subjects will be divided into three groups (Group I - normal subjects-BMI\<25 kg/m2, Group II -overweight subjects-BMI, 25-30 kg/m2), Group III -obese subjects- BMI\>30 kg/m2). Core stability (dependent variable) will be measured by three tests : bilateral static balance with open and close eye, uni-pedal static balance test, and dynamic balance test using Prokin System for balance
