Biologically‐Inspired Melt Electrowriting for the Generation of Highly Biomimetic Functional Myocardium

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
In this work, melt electrowriting is used to fabricate a 3D printed scaffold design that generates engineered cardiac tissues with in‐plane contraction, mimicking natural myocardium. It is shown that these tissues display advanced maturation and functionality.

Resistance versus Balance Training to Improve Postural Control in Parkinson's Disease: A Randomized Rater Blinded Controlled Study

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
Background Reduced muscle strength is an independent risk factor for falls and related to postural instability in individuals with Parkinson’s disease. The ability of resistance training to improve postural control still remains unclear.

The effect of visual task on postural control in subjects with right and left chronic Hemiparesis (Pilot study)

open access: yesمجله پژوهش در علوم توانبخشی, 2013
Introduction: The role and importance of dual task with right hemisphere in postural control has been reported in many previous studies but the effect of visual task levels on postural control in subjects with right and left hemi paretic is not yet known.

Sensory supplementation system based on electrotactile tongue biofeedback of head position for balance control [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
The present study aimed at investigating the effects of an artificial head position-based tongue-placed electrotactile biofeedback on postural control during quiet standing under different somatosensory conditions from the support surface.

Cortical control of postural responses [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Neural Transmission, 2007
This article reviews the evidence for cortical involvement in shaping postural responses evoked by external postural perturbations. Although responses to postural perturbations occur more quickly than the fastest voluntary movements, they have longer latencies than spinal stretch reflexes, suggesting greater potential for modification by the cortex ...

Additively Manufactured 3D Auxetic Metamaterials for Structurally Guided Capacitive and Resistive Tactile Sensing

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A 3D‐architected auxetic metamaterial is used to construct capacitive and resistive tactile sensors via digital light processing‐based additive manufacturing. The inward deformation of the proposed structure under compression amplifies local strain, enhancing sensing performance.

Selective Effects of Postural Control on Spatial vs. Nonspatial Working Memory: A Functional Near-Infrared Spectral Imaging Study

open access: yesFrontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2018
Background: Previous evidence suggests that postural control processing may be more related to spatial working memory (SWM) than to nonspatial working memory (NWM).

Cortical control of posture in fine motor skills: evidence from inter-utterance rest position

open access: yesFrontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2023
The vocal tract continuously employs tonic muscle activity in the maintenance of postural configurations. Gamma-band activity in the sensorimotor cortex underlies transient movements during speech production, yet little is known about the neural control ...
