In this randomized clinical trial, 34 elderly DN patients were divided into intervention (n = 17) and control (n = 17) groups. The experimental group underwent a balance training program using the Biodex Balance System (BBS) for 10 sessions. All subjects in both groups were assessed using timed ‘up and go’ (TUG) test, the Berg balance scale, and the fall risk and postural stability tests, at baseline and at the end of the study.
