Reduced frontopolar brain activation characterizes concussed athletes with balance deficits
NeuroImage: 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 ...

Mobility as the Purpose of Postural Control [PDF]
Frontiers in Computational Neuroscience, 2017 Abstract Counteracting 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]
PeerJ, 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

The effects of anxiety and external attentional focus on postural control in patients with Parkinson's disease. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2018 Although anxiety is a common non-motor outcome of Parkinson's disease (PD) affecting 40% of patients, little attention has been paid so far to its effects on balance impairment and postural control. Improvement of postural control through focusing on the

How cognitive loads modulate the postural control of older women with low back pain?
BMC Geriatrics, 2021 Background The capacity of postural control is a key factor related to falling in older people, particularly in older women with low back pain (LBP). Cognitive involvement in postural control increases with age. However, most scholars have not considered

Postural control in Parkinson's disease
Brazilian Journal of Otorhinolaryngology, 2014 Postural instability is one of the most disabling features of Parkinson's disease.To evaluate postural balance in Parkinson's disease.Thirty patients with Parkinson's disease were compared with controls using Tetrax™ interactive balance system posturography.For different positions, patients with Parkinson's disease showed a significantly higher weight ...

Visuo-postural dependency index (VPDI) in human postural control
BMC Sports Science, Medicine and Rehabilitation, 2021 Background Computerized stabilometry has been utilized to investigate the effect of vision on the neuromechanisms of human postural control. However, this approach lacks operational methods to quantify visual dependency during upright stance.
