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

Smaller Cortisol Awakening Responses Are Associated with Greater Visual Dependence in Postural Control [PDF]
, 2021 There are known links between the hypothalamic–pituitary–adrenal (HPA) axis and systems responsible for regulating posture. Our aim was to explore directly, for the first time, whether an aspect of circadian HPA axis activity (the cortisol awakening ...

Anticipatory control of head posture [PDF]
Clinical Neurophysiology, 2007 We tested a hypothesis on two patterns of anticipatory postural adjustments (APAs) in neck muscles, reciprocal and co-activation, that may be used in a task-specific way. We also explored possible relation of APAs in leg and trunk muscles to head stabilization.Load perturbations (loading and unloading) were applied to the head, trunk, and head and ...
