Are Static and Dynamic Postural Balance Assessments Two Sides of the Same Coin? A Cross-Sectional Study in the Older Adults

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2021
The aim of this study was to investigate if the combination of static and dynamic postural balance assessments gives more accurate indications on balance performance among healthy older adults.

Human-Likeness Indicator for Robot Posture Control and Balance [PDF]

open access: yesIn Robotics, Computer Vision and Intelligent Systems Vol. 1667, Ser. CCIS, pp. 1-16. Springer (2022), 2022
Similarly to humans, humanoid robots require posture control and balance to walk and interact with the environment. In this work posture control in perturbed conditions is evaluated as a performance test for humanoid control. A specific performance indicator is proposed: the score is based on the comparison between the body sway of the tested humanoid ...

Postural balance in children with cerebral palsy [PDF]

open access: yesDevelopmental Medicine and Child Neurology, 2002
Postural control deficits have been suggested to be a major component of gait disorders in cerebral palsy (CP). Standing balance was investigated in 23 ambulatory children and adolescents with spastic diplegic CP, ages 5 to 18 years, and compared with values of 92 children without disability, ages 5 to 18 years, while they stood on a force plate with ...

Pengaruh Indeks Massa Tubuh Terhadap Keseimbangan Postural Dinamis Pada Mahasiswa Universitas Esa Unggul

open access: yesJurnal Fisioterapi dan Rehabilitasi, 2021
Dynamic postural balance is very beneficial for the smooth running of daily activities and reduces the risk of falling. One of the factors that affect the body's postural balance is Body Mass Index (BMI).

Lead Effects on Postural Balance of Children [PDF]

open access: yesEnvironmental Health Perspectives, 1990
The postural sway responses of 63 children with a mean age of 5.74 years were quantified with a Force Platform technique. The average maximum (max) blood lead (PbB) of these children during the first 5 years of life was 20.7 micrograms/dL (range 9.2 to 32.5).

COMTEST Project: A Complete Modular Test Stand for Human and Humanoid Posture Control and Balance [PDF]

open access: yes2019 IEEE-RAS 19th International Conference on Humanoid Robots (Humanoids), 2019, pp. 630-635, 2021
This work presents a system to benchmark humanoid posture control and balance performances under perturbed conditions. The specific benchmarking scenario consists, for example, of balancing upright stance while performing voluntary movements on moving surfaces.

RESEARCH OF HUMAN POSTURAL BALANCE PARAMETERS [PDF]

open access: yesMokslas - Lietuvos ateitis, 2010
In present article postural balance between subjects with stroke and healthy subjects, is being investigated with eyes opened and eyes closed. In the research participated 30 healthy subjects and 15 subjects with stroke. At the same time two experimental measurements were performed – postural balance was measured using balance platform and oscillations

Impaired Motor Function in the Affected Arm Predicts Impaired Postural Balance After Stroke: A Cross Sectional Study

open access: yesFrontiers in Neurology, 2019
Background: Impaired postural balance is a common symptom after stroke and a common cause of falling. Most common daily tasks use arm and hand movements.

Balance Training Reduces Brain Activity during Motor Simulation of a Challenging Balance Task in Older Adults: An fMRI Study

open access: yesFrontiers in Behavioral Neuroscience, 2018
Aging is associated with a shift from an automatic to a more cortical postural control strategy, which goes along with deteriorations in postural stability.
