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

Postural threat increases sample entropy of postural control
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 ...

Cortical control of postural responses [PDF]
This article reviews the evidence for cortical involvement in shaping postural responses evoked by external postural perturbations. Although responses to postural perturbations occur more quickly than the fastest voluntary movements, they have longer latencies than spinal stretch reflexes, suggesting greater potential for modification by the cortex ...

Predictive simulations of postural control: exploring the role of signal noise and neural delays in Parkinson’s disease [PDF]
Postural instability is one of the key motor symptoms of Parkinson’s disease (PD), which worsens with disease progression, leading to an increased fall risk. The complex internal processes of postural control and the elements causing this instability due

Cortical and Cerebellar Oscillatory Responses to Postural Instability in Parkinson's Disease
Introduction: Posture and balance dysfunctions critically impair activities of daily living of patients with progressing Parkinson's disease (PD). However, the neural mechanisms underlying postural instability in PD are poorly understood, and specific ...

Assessment of Postural Control and Proprioception Using the Delos Postural Proprioceptive System
Background. Proper postural control and proprioception are essential for maintaining balance, preventing falls, and performing daily activities. Traditional methods of assessing postural control and proprioceptive function often lack objectivity and ...
