Balance perturbation system to improve balance compensatory responses during walking in old persons
Journal of NeuroEngineering and Rehabilitation, 2010 Ageing commonly disrupts the balance control and compensatory postural responses that contribute to maintaining balance and preventing falls during perturbation of posture. This can lead to increased risk of falling in old adults (65 years old and over).

Quantitative assessment of postural instability in spinocerebellar ataxia type 3 patients
Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, 2020 Objective Spinocerebellar ataxia type 3 (SCA3) is one of the most common hereditary neurodegenerative diseases, with balance instability as main symptom. Balance quantification is crucial for evaluating the efficacy of therapeutic interventions. However,

Effects of a Perturbation-Based Balance Training on Compensatory Postural Responses to Backward Loss of Balance in Patients with Cerebellar Disease: A Case Study [PDF]
The Asian Journal of Kinesiology, 2021 OBJECTIVES The damage to the cerebellum primarily results in balance-related abnormalities that may affect performance of locomotion and postural adjustments, eventually contributing to an increased risk of fall and fear of falling in patients with ...

Non-physical practice improves task performance in an unstable, perturbed environment: motor imagery and observational balance training [PDF]
, 2014 For consciously performed motor tasks executed in a defined and constant way, both motor imagery (MI) and action observation (AO) have been shown to promote motor learning.
