Cervical Joint Position Sense and Its Correlations with Postural Stability in Subjects with Fibromyalgia Syndrome

open access: yesLife, 2022
Cervical joint position sense (JPS) and postural stability are vital to maintaining balance and preventing falls in fibromyalgia syndrome (FMS). Impaired cervical JPS may influence postural stability, and understanding the relationship between them can ...

Postural stability and fractal dynamics

open access: hybridActa Neurobiologiae Experimentalis, 2001
Methods of non-linear dynamics and deterministic chaos may provide us with effective quantitative descriptors of the dynamics of postural control. The goal of this study was to introduce a new measure, which would allow to determine the fractal structure of posturographic signals and to measure the effect of the loss of visual feedback information in ...

Postural stability in people with visual impairment

open access: yesBrain and Behavior, 2019
AbstractBackgroundThe visual system enables the brain to assess information regarding the position of the body in space. Congenital or acquired blindness leads to the development of abnormal sensory‐motor interactions that results in development of typical musculoskeletal deformities and gait patterns that cause disability.

Postural stability of 5-year-old girls and boys with different body heights.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2019
BackgroundPostural stability is one of the determinants of proper body posture and a condition for developing motor abilities in every human being. The measurement of the centre of pressure (COP) location and displacement is the most common technique of ...

Postural Stability: The Role of Auditory Input in Normal Hearing Individuals and Older Adults with Hearing Loss [PDF]

open access: yesIranian Journal of Otorhinolaryngology
Introduction:Balance integrates sensory and motor functions through the visual, somatosensory, and vestibular systems. Auditory inputs also contribute to spatial orientation, aiding postural control and stability.

Postural Stability in Children with Cerebral Palsy. [PDF]

open access: yesJ Clin Med
Background: A lack of postural control is one of the key problems in children with cerebral palsy (CP). The goals of the present study were to assess static postural stability in children with mild CP using a force platform compared to that of typically developing peers and to identify differences in static stability between children with hemiplegic ...

The relationship between equanimity and postural stability [PDF]

open access: yesBMC Psychology
Background The main goal of this study was to examine the relation between inner (equanimity), and outer (postural stability) balance. It was expected that participants with a higher sense of equanimity, higher emotion regulation abilities, and higher ...

Age-related effects on dynamic postural stability and prefrontal cortex activation during precision fitting tasks [PDF]

open access: yesPeerJ
Background Dynamic postural control is impaired in older adults, as evidenced from worse dynamic postural stability compared to young adults during upright stance while concurrent goal-directed tasks.
