New methods of posturographic data analysis may improve the diagnostic value of static posturography in multiple sclerosis

Heliyon, 2021
Background: Early and accurate diagnosis of multiple sclerosis (MS) is crucial for its effective treatment. In MS diagnostic, neuronal networks that control posture and movement are of particular importance, which performance can be assessed using static

Effects of external loads on postural sway during quiet stance in adults aged 20–80 years [PDF]

, 2018
The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of holding external loads on postural sway during upright stance across age decades. Sixty-five healthy adults (females, n = 35), aged 18–80 years were assessed in four conditions; (1) standing ...

Pain relief is associated with decreasing postural sway in patients with non-specific low back pain

BMC Musculoskeletal Disorders, 2012
Background Increased postural sway is well documented in patients suffering from non-specific low back pain, whereby a linear relationship between higher pain intensities and increasing postural sway has been described.

What is the role body sway deviation and body sway velocity play in postural stability in older adults? [PDF]

, 2013
Summary: This cross sectional study focused on how Postural Stability (PS) indicators: body sway deviation (BSD) and body sway velocity (BSV), change with age and their association with levels of social and physical activity.

The Association between Seasonal Variation in Vitamin D, Postural Sway, and Falls Risk: An Observational Cohort Study

Journal of Aging Research, 2013
Introduction. Low serum vitamin D levels are associated with increased postural sway. Vitamin D varies seasonally. This study investigates whether postural sway varies seasonally and is associated with serum vitamin D and falls. Methods.

Day-to-Day Variability of Postural Sway and Its Association With Cognitive Function in Older Adults: A Pilot Study

Frontiers in Aging Neuroscience, 2018
Introduction: Increased variability in motor function has been observed during the initial stages of cognitive decline. However, the natural variability of postural control, as well as its association with cognitive status and decline, remains unknown ...

Eye Movements Affect Postural Control in Young and Older Females [PDF]

, 2016
Visual information is used for postural stabilization in humans. However, little is known about how eye movements prevalent in everyday life interact with the postural control system in older individuals. Therefore, the present study assessed the effects

Visual conditions and postural directions affect postural sway variability in patients with Parkinson’s disease

Motricidade, 2015
Postural sway variability was evaluated in Parkinson’s disease (PD) patients at different stages of disease. Twenty PD patients were grouped into two groups (unilateral, 14; bilateral, 6) according to disease severity.
