Hypothetical control of postural sway [PDF]
Journal of The Royal Society Interface, 2020 Abstract Quiet 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

Postural sway under muscle vibration and muscle fatigue in humans
Neuroscience Letters, 2002 Separate studies have demonstrated that vibration and fatigue of ankle muscles alter postural control. The purpose of the present experiment was to investigate the effect of ankle muscle vibration on the regulation of postural sway in bipedal stance ...

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.

Posture sway and the transition rate for a fall [PDF]
Physica A: Statistical Mechanics and its Applications, 2001 Postural body sway displacements for quiet standing subjects (measured with a new ultrasonic device) are reported. Two of the well known strategies for balancing, namely ankle and hip movements were probed. The data is modeled using a Fokker-Plank-Langevin stochastic theory. Both analytic and computer simulation techniques are employed.
