The Relationship between the Static and Dynamic Balance of the Body, the Influence of Eyesight and Muscle Tension in the Cervical Spine in CAA Patients—A Pilot Study

Cerebral amyloid angiopathy (CAA) is one form of disease of the small vessels of the brain and can cause frequent cerebral hemorrhages as well as other types of stroke. The aim of the study was to analyze the static and dynamic balance of the body and changes in the tension of selected muscles of th...
