Reduced frontopolar brain activation characterizes concussed athletes with balance deficits

open access: yesNeuroImage: Clinical, 2020
Objectives: Athletes with sport-related concussions (SRC) often demonstrate deficits in postural stability. Lower cerebral blood flow in frontal cortices has been documented in athletes with symptoms after SRC, however, it is unclear if functional brain ...

Cervical Joint Position Sense and Its Correlations with Postural Stability in Subjects with Fibromyalgia Syndrome

open access: yesLife, 2022
Cervical joint position sense (JPS) and postural stability are vital to maintaining balance and preventing falls in fibromyalgia syndrome (FMS). Impaired cervical JPS may influence postural stability, and understanding the relationship between them can ...

Mobility as the Purpose of Postural Control [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Computational Neuroscience, 2017
AbstractCounteracting the destabilizing force of gravity is usually considered to be the main purpose of postural control. However, from the consideration of the mechanical requirements for movement, we argue that posture is adjusted in view of providing impetus for movement.

Voluntarily controlled but not merely observed visual feedback affects postural sway [PDF]

open access: yesPeerJ, 2018
Online stabilization of human standing posture utilizes multisensory afferences (e.g., vision). Whereas visual feedback of spontaneous postural sway can stabilize postural control especially when observers concentrate on their body and intend to minimize
