On the Human Standing Postural Sway, II

open access: yesOrthopedics & Traumatology, 1975
Though the human standing posture is disturbed constantly by various external and internal factors, antigravity muscles and their antagonists, etc. work at every moments to prevent from falling but causing minute sway, in which control mechanism of posture holding would be hidden.

Experimental Assessment of the Effects of Substrate Choice on the Duration of Chemical Signals in Fecal Scent‐Marks of Free‐Ranging Iberian Wolves

open access: yesJournal of Experimental Zoology Part A: Ecological and Integrative Physiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Chemical communication, typically based on feces, urine, and glandular secretions, often deposited as substrate scent marks, plays a key role in social organization and communication among many mammals, especially carnivores. This study assesses experimentally whether the type of substrate chosen for fecal deposition and the temperature ...

A validation of mobile sensing actigraphy devices for generating a biomechanical model of posture [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Mobile sensing actigraphy was tested and validated as a modality for computing dynamic posturography. Twelve healthy volunteer subjects (6 male) were administered risperidone and assessed for postural stability using a NeuroCom® Balance Master system and

Step‐by‐step insight into gait analysis: A narrative review unlocking knee biomechanics

open access: yesKnee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Gait analysis offers a powerful tool for clinical and orthopaedic decision‐making. By quantifying spatiotemporal, kinematic and kinetic parameters during walking, it provides a dynamic window into joint function that static imaging cannot capture.

Does a mineral wristband affect balance? A randomized, controlled, double-blind study

open access: yesJournal of Otolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, 2015
Background Having good balance is a facilitating factor in the performance of everyday activities. Good balance is also essential in various sport activities in order to both get results and prevent injury.

The Effect of Sensory Noise Created by Compliant and Sway-Referenced Support Surfaces on Postural Stability [PDF]

open access: yes
The purpose of the present experiment was to compare in normal human subjects the differential effects on postural stability of introducing somatosensory noise via compliant and/or sway-referenced support surfaces during quiet standing.

The Relationship between Force Platform Measures and Total Body Center of Mass [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
The ability of a person to maintain stable posture is essential for activities of daily living. Research in this field has evolved to include sensitive assessment technology including force platforms and 3-dimensional kinematic motion analysis systems ...

Targeting ligament boundaries rather than alignment boundaries in augmented‐reality‐assisted total knee arthroplasty ensures comparable gait patterns between operated and contralateral limbs

open access: yesKnee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Modern personalised total knee arthroplasty (TKA) techniques aim to mimic natural knee kinematics by focusing on soft‐tissue dynamics rather than static alignment. However, a consistent definition of the optimal ligamentous balance has not yet been established.
