Postural sway in volleyball players
Human Movement Science, 2013 The aim of this work was to analyze the postural sway of volleyball players in bipedal quiet stance. The center of pressure (CoP) was measured in 46 athletes and 42 non-athlete controls. Each subject was tested in 10 different conditions, 5 with their eyes open and 5 with their eyes closed.

The role of vestibular cues in postural sway
Journal of Neurophysiology, 2021 Vestibular feedback is important for postural control, but little is known about the role of tilt cues vs. translation cues vs. rotation cues. We studied healthy human subjects with no known vestibular pathology or symptoms. Our findings showed that vestibular encoding of lateral translation correlated with medial-lateral postural sway, consistent ...

Illusory visual motion stimulus elicits postural sway in migraine patients
Frontiers in Psychology, 2015 Although the perception of visual motion modulates postural control, it is unknown whether illusory visual motion elicits postural sway. The present study examined the effect of illusory motion on postural sway in patients with migraine, who tend to be ...

A wearable device to assess postural sway
2019 IEEE 23rd International Symposium on Consumer Technologies (ISCT), 2019 The maintenance of balance in upright stance is traditionally evaluated using heavy and expensive force platforms. The aim of this work is to prove the usefulness of a low-cost wearable sensor (an actigraph) to assess postural sway. We compared the performance of the device to a gold standard force platform. We analyzed measurements of postural sway in
