Postural control influence on upper extremity function among children with cerebral palsy: a literature review [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Performance of upper extremity function and movement sequence is influenced by postural control. Motor disorders lead to deficits in postural control, which subsequently may lead to postural instability of children with cerebral palsy (CWCP).

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 ...

Visuo-postural dependency index (VPDI) in human postural control

open access: yesBMC 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.

Contraversive neglect? A modulation of visuospatial neglect in association with contraversive pushing [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Objective: Contraversive pushing (CP) is a neurologic disorder characterized by a lateral postural imbalance. Pusher patients actively push toward their contralesional side due to a misperception of the body's orientation in relation to gravity. Although

Acoustic cues and postural control

open access: yesJournal of Rehabilitation Medicine, 1995
The effect of auditory input on postural control was evaluated in separate experiments performed in three groups of healthy volunteers. Auditory input took the form either of feedback signals generated by a force platform in response to the subject's postural control movements, or of field orientation (frame of reference) input provided by repeated ...

Therapeutic exercises, manual therapy, and health education program for adolescents with temporomandibular disorders: face-to-face and online multimodal rehabilitation protocol for a randomized controlled clinical trial

open access: yesTrials
Background Multimodal rehabilitation has shown good results in adults with temporomandibular disorder (TMD), but there is still doubt regarding the protocol’s ideal format (face-to-face or online), and its effectiveness among adolescents.

Dual tasking under compromised visual and somatosensory input in elderly fallers and non-fallers [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Background: Performance of additional tasks disturbs postural control in elderly. It is unknown, however, how postural control is affected in elderly fallers and non-fallers in a reduced sensory situation.

Mitochondrial DNA disorders in neuromuscular diseases in diverse populations

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
Abstract Neuromuscular features are common in mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) disorders. The genetic architecture of mtDNA disorders in diverse populations is poorly understood. We analysed mtDNA variants from whole‐exome sequencing data in neuromuscular patients from South Africa, Brazil, India, Turkey and Zambia. In 998 individuals, there were two definite

Chronic Low Quality Sleep Impairs Postural Control in Healthy Adults

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2016
The lack of sleep, both in quality and quantity, is an increasing problem in modern society, often related to workload and stress. A number of studies have addressed the effects of acute (total) sleep deprivation on postural control. However, up to date,
