Visuo-postural dependency index (VPDI) in human postural control [PDF]
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.

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 ...

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
