Abstract
Excessive research has examined various physical activities to replace the elderly.The main purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of different exercises on the balance of the elderly as a systematic and meta-analysis of studies in Iran. For the present study, SID, Magiran and Google Scholar databases from 2001 to 2019 were searched along with keywords. After the initial screening, the full text of the articles was evaluated and the articles that met the inclusion criteria were analyzed. A total of 191 articles were initially reviewed, of which 17 articles met the criteria for functional equilibrium, 33 articles received the inclusion criteria for dynamic balance, and 11 articles received the inclusion criteria for static balance. Accordingly, 2472 elderly people who were divided into two groups of control and experimental groups of 1224 and 1236, respectively, were 1217 (female) and 1171 (male). The mean age of the subjects in the present study was 66 years. The results of meta-analysis showed that differentexercises improve functional balance, dynamic balance, and static balance in the elderly. The results of meta-analysis Showed that different exercises, high and significant effect on functional balance (ES = 0: z = 15.46 p = 0.001) and take-off and departure time (ES = 0: z = 11.96 p = 0.001) and a significant effect on static equilibrium (ES = 0: z = 6.77 p = 0.001). The results of this study showed that various sports exercises are effective in improving functional, dynamic, and static balance in the elderly.
