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 ...

Predictive simulations of postural control: exploring the role of signal noise and neural delays in Parkinson’s disease [PDF]

Scientific Reports
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

Frontiers in Neurology, 2021
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 ...

Effects of tai chi on postural control during dual-task stair negotiation in knee osteoarthritis : a randomised controlled trial protocol [PDF]

, 2020
Stair ascent and descent require complex integration between sensory and motor systems; individuals with knee osteoarthritis (KOA) have an elevated risk for falls and fall injuries, which may be in part due to poor dynamic postural control during ...
