NOTCH2NLC Repeat Expansions in Parkinsonian Disorders: Clinical and Neuroimaging Characteristics

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Neuronal intranuclear inclusion disease (NIID) is a neurodegenerative disorder caused by NOTCH2NLC GGC repeat expansions, with heterogeneous clinical manifestations, including parkinsonism. Recent studies have identified NOTCH2NLC repeat expansions in patients with Parkinson's disease (PD) and atypical parkinsonism (aPM), suggesting ...

FUNCTIONAL STATE OF THE AUTONOMIC NERVOUS SYSTEM IN ELDERLY PERSONS WITH POSTURAL INSTABILITY

open access: yesSiberian Journal of Life Sciences and Agriculture, 2023
Background. Preservation of postural balance allows the elderly people to remain mobile and lead an active lifestyle. There is evidence of the contribution of the ANS to the coordination of postural responses and the maintenance of postural stability in ...

Virtual Balancing for Studying and Training Postural Control [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience, 2017
Postural control during free stance has been frequently interpreted in terms of balancing an inverted pendulum. This even holds, if subjects do not balance their own, but an external body weight. We introduce here a virtual balancing apparatus, which produces torque in the ankle joint as a function of ankle angle resembling the gravity and inertial ...

Quantitative Iron Measurements in the Basal Ganglia of NBIA Patients Using QSM: Insights From a Tertiary Center

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Neurodegeneration with brain iron accumulation (NBIA) comprises rare genetic disorders characterized by predominantly extrapyramidal symptoms and iron deposition in the basal ganglia. Conventional magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) detects qualitative changes but cannot accurately quantify iron accumulation. Quantitative susceptibility

Improving Gait Balance of the Blind During Robot-Assisted Guidance by Providing Static External Reference

open access: yesIEEE Access
The gait of blind individuals is characterized by reduced gait stability and postural balance due to their limited sensory information. However, existing systems focus on guidance capability rather than improving gait stability and postural balance ...

A validation of mobile sensing actigraphy devices for generating a biomechanical model of posture [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Mobile sensing actigraphy was tested and validated as a modality for computing dynamic posturography. Twelve healthy volunteer subjects (6 male) were administered risperidone and assessed for postural stability using a NeuroCom® Balance Master system and

Lived and care experiences of chronic musculoskeletal shoulder pain in Australian adults: A qualitative study

open access: yesArthritis Care &Research, Accepted Article.
Objectives Australian evidence on lived and care experiences of chronic musculoskeletal shoulder pain (CMSP), irrespective of disorder classification or disease, is limited. However, such evidence is important for person‐centred care and informing local service pathways and care guidelines or standards.

Demonstration of the Effect of Centre of Mass Height on Postural Sway Using Accelerometry for Balance Analysis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
The effect of center of mass (COM) height on stand-still postural sway analysis was studied. For this purpose, a measurement apparatus was set up that included an accelerometry unit attached to a rod: three plumb lines, positioned at 50 cm, 75 cm, and ...
