POSTURAL CONTROL IN THE ELDERLY

open access: yesNippon Jibiinkoka Gakkai Kaiho, 1992
In order to investigate postural control in the elderly, a stabilometric investigation including fast Fourier Transform (FFT) analysis was conducted in three different age groups. The oldest group was composed of 16 subjects who ranged in age from 75 to 86 years: another group consisted of eight 65 to 74 year olds; the control group was composed of 21 ...

Cache‐Cache: Dans les souffles du Grand Fleuve…

open access: yesAnthropology of Consciousness, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Between ventriloquism and divination, devotion and consecration, an old and sublime marine game unfolds each day, with living breaths shared in the waters of the great river. In Tadoussac, on the north shore of the St. Lawrence Estuary, at the mouth of the Saguenay, the rumor of whales has long resonated.

Dysglycaemia and Autonomic Dysfunction: The Diabetes Prevention Program Outcomes Study

open access: yesDiabetes, Obesity and Metabolism, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aim Limited data on the link between various measures of glycemia and metabolism and autonomic dysfunction exist. We assessed the association of fasting plasma glucose [FPG], glycated haemoglobin [HbA1C], fasting insulin, and HOMA‐IR and cardiac autonomic function measures separately for men and women in the Diabetes Prevention Program ...

Proprioception drives tension wood formation for autotropic straightening and postural control in trees

open access: yesNew Phytologist, EarlyView.
Proprioception controls trunk straightness in trees through opposite tension wood formation. A spherical growth chamber (a), combined with a two‐dimensional rotating clinostat (b2), suppresses gravi‐ and phototropic sensing. The tree is first tilted horizontally (b1), triggering upward gravitropic bending, actuated by tension wood formation on the ...

Neural Bases of Postural Control [PDF]

open access: yesPhysiology, 2006
The body posture during standing and walking is maintained due to the activity of a closed-loop control system. In the review, we consider different aspects of postural control: its functional organization, the distribution of postural functions in different parts of the central nervous system, and the activity of neuronal networks controlling posture.
