Illusory visual motion stimulus elicits postural sway in migraine patients
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 ...

Inferred Influence of Human Lateral Profile on Limb Load Asymmetry during a Quiet Standing Balance Test [PDF]
Although the identification and characterisation of a participant's lateral profile during quiet standing have not received much research attention, they have the potential to greatly extend our understanding of upright stance stability control.
