Postural Stability of Sitting Women
International Journal of Occupational Safety and Ergonomics, 2013The study examined the utility of stabilometric dimensions and explored whether the changes in sitting postures were manifested in functional measures of postural control. Eleven women participated in the study, which used 11 chair sitting postures: arms on laps or arms right angled; armrest at a height of 17, 20 and 23 cm; with or without backrest ...

Postural stability of anthropomorphic systems
Mathematical Biosciences, 1975Abstract This paper deals with the problem of applying some regulating procedures to the postural control of anthropomorphic systems. Two regulating procedures are studied. The approximative procedure for postural control by force measurement is attempted for the stabilization of a biped system under small perturbations has been considered too.

Postural stability in strabismus and amblyopia
Strabismus, 2023Postural control is a complex skill based on the collaboration of dynamic sensory mechanisms, namely the visual, vestibular, and somatosensory systems.A literature survey regarding postural stability in strabismus and amblyopia was conducted using databases in order to collect data for a narrative review of published reports and available literature ...

Smoking habits and postural stability
American Journal of Otolaryngology, 1994It has been reported that tobacco smoking temporarily affects postural stability We have examined whether smoking habits have a long-term effect on the body balance control using computer-aided posturography.The postural stability of 80 male forest workers was measured with a force platform technique with eyes closed.

Trunk posture and spinal stability
Clinical Biomechanics, 2001The influence of trunk posture on musculoskeletal stability of the spine was investigated.A biomechanical model was developed to evaluate the influence of posture on spinal stability. Model performance was assessed by comparing predicted muscle recruitment patterns with measured EMG activity from the trunk muscles during static lifting exertions.An ...

PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to examine the relationships between the toe's pressure and tactile sense and measures of postural stability. SUBJECTS: The subjects of the study were 21 healthy volunteers who were divided into two age groups: young group (mean 21.0 ± 1.6 years): 7 males and 6 females, elderly group (mean 71.4 ± 2.8 years): 4 ...

Stability, Movement and Posture
1985Adjustment from the quadruped status to the bipedal mode of locomotion has added the hazard of falling to all the other consequences of the change, which may be anything from flat feet, osteoarthritis, herniae, prolapsed discs and kyphosis, down to an ordinary trip fall.

Impact of military type footwear and load carrying workload on postural stability
Ergonomics, 2018Postural stability has been shown to be impacted by footwear and task performed. This study analysed the impact of two military footwear, standard boot (STB) and minimalist boot (MTB) on postural stability, before (PRE) and after (POST) a load carriage ...
