A modified two-dimensional sensory organization test that assesses both anteroposterior and mediolateral postural control

Frontiers in Rehabilitation Sciences, 2023
BackgroundThe Sensory Organization Test (SOT) was designed to measure changes in postural control in response to unreliable visual and/or proprioceptive feedback.

Hypothetical control of postural sway [PDF]

Journal of The Royal Society Interface, 2020
AbstractQuiet standing exhibits strongly intermittent variability that has inspired at least two interpretations. First, variability can be intermittent through the alternating engagement and disengagement of complementary control processes at distinct scales.

Voluntarily controlled but not merely observed visual feedback affects postural sway [PDF]

PeerJ, 2018
Online stabilization of human standing posture utilizes multisensory afferences (e.g., vision). Whereas visual feedback of spontaneous postural sway can stabilize postural control especially when observers concentrate on their body and intend to minimize

The relationship between cervical spine range of motion and postural sway in mechanical neck pain: A cross-sectional study

Hong Kong Physiotherapy Journal, 2023
Background: Impairments in postural sway have been identified in people with mechanical neck pain. The influence of cervical spine range of motion (ROM) on postural sway is unclear in mechanical neck pain (MNP).

Use of Wearable Sensors to Assess the Effects of Performing a Cognitive Task on Sensory Integration of Balance in Healthy Individuals

Sensors, 2022
This study investigated the effects of performing a cognitive task on the sensory integration of balance in healthy individuals. Ten subjects (five F/five M; 21.5 ± 2.17 years; 69.9 ± 3.4 inches; 155.6 ± 26.1 lbs; Caucasian), without known balance issues,

Hallux valgus deformity and postural sway: a cross-sectional study

BMC Musculoskeletal Disorders, 2021
Background Hallux valgus deformity has been reported to be associated with increased postural sway. However, the direction and magnitude of postural sway associated with hallux valgus remain inconclusive. We assessed the association between hallux valgus

The Walls Are Closing In: Postural Responses to a Virtual Reality Claustrophobic Simulation

Clinical and Translational Neuroscience, 2022
Background: Changes in the visual environment and thereby, the spatial orientation, can induce postural instability leading to falls. Virtual reality (VR) has been used to expose individuals to virtual environments (VE) that increase postural threats ...

Concurrent validity of a developed accelerometry-based device for postural sway assessment [PDF]

Songklanakarin Journal of Science and Technology (SJST), 2020
Postural control is one factor related to falls. Many instruments are available to objectively evaluate postural control performance. However, feasibility and applicability is limited by setting and financial restraints.

Mechanisms of interpersonal sway synchrony and stability [PDF]

, 2014
Here we explain the neural and mechanical mechanisms responsible for synchronizing sway and improving postural control during physical contact with another standing person.
