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 ...

Differential postural effects of plantar-flexor muscles fatigue under normal, altered and improved vestibular and neck somatosensory conditions [PDF]
Experimental Brain Research (2008) 1-31, 2008 The aim of the present study was to assess the effects of plantar-flexor muscles fatigue on postural control during quiet standing under normal, altered and improved vestibular and neck somatosensory conditions. To address this objective, young male university students were asked to stand upright as still as possible with their eyes closed in two ...

Postural control adaptation and habituation during vibratory proprioceptive stimulation: an HD-EEG investigation of cortical recruitment and kinematics [PDF]
, 2020 The objective of the present work is to measure postural kinematics and power spectral variation from HD-EEG to assess changes in cortical activity during adaptation and habituation to postural perturbation. To evoke proprioceptive postural perturbation, vibratory stimulation at 85 Hz was applied to the calf muscles of 33 subjects over four 75-second ...

Android Based Low Cost Sitting Posture Monitoring System [PDF]
2020 11th International Conference on Electrical and Computer
Engineering (ICECE), 2020 Back pain is one of the leading causes of disability-adjusted life year globally and the most common cause of low back pain is poor sitting posture. There are several actions that can be adopted proactively to avoid poor sitting posture induced back pain including behavioral change, regular exercise, and use of an ergonomic chair.

Can a Plantar Pressure-Based Tongue-Placed Electrotactile Biofeedback Improve Postural Control Under Altered Vestibular and Neck Proprioceptive Conditions? [PDF]
Neuroscience / Neurosciences (2008), 2008 We investigated the effects of a plantar pressure-based tongue-placed electrotactile biofeedback on postural control during quiet standing under normal and altered vestibular and neck proprioceptive conditions. To achieve this goal, fourteen young healthy adults were asked to stand upright as immobile as possible with their eyes closed in two Neutral ...

A Pinned Polymer Model of Posture Control [PDF]
, 1995 A phenomenological model of human posture control is posited. The dynamics are modelled as an elastically pinned polymer under the influence of noise. The model accurately reproduces the two-point correlation functions of experimental posture data and makes predictions for the response function of the postural control system.
