Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2018 From ancient Greece to nowadays, research on posture control was guided and shaped by many concepts. Equilibrium control is often considered part of postural control. However, two different levels have become increasingly apparent in the postural control system, one level sets a distribution of tonic muscle activity ("posture") and the other is ...

Mobility as the Purpose of Postural Control [PDF]
Frontiers in Computational Neuroscience, 2017 Abstract Counteracting the destabilizing force of gravity is usually considered to be the main purpose of postural control. However, from the consideration of the mechanical requirements for movement, we argue that posture is adjusted in view of providing impetus for movement.

Postural threat increases sample entropy of postural control
Frontiers in Neurology, 2023 IntroductionPostural threat elicits modifications to standing balance. However, the underlying neural mechanism(s) responsible remain unclear. Shifts in attention focus including directing more attention to balance when threatened may contribute to the balance changes.

Pain relief is associated with decreasing postural sway in patients with non-specific low back pain [PDF]
, 2012 Background Increased postural sway is well documented in patients suffering from non-specific low back pain, whereby a linear relationship between higher pain intensities and increasing postural sway has been described.

Is there a relationship between pain intensity and postural sway in patients with non-specific low back pain? [PDF]
, 2011 Background Increased center of pressure excursions are well documented in patients suffering from non-specific low back pain, whereby the altered postural sway includes both higher mean sway velocities and larger sway area.
