Relationship between Spectral Characteristics of Spontaneous Postural Sway and Motion Sickness Susceptibility.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
Motion sickness (MS) usually occurs for a narrow band of frequencies of the imposed oscillation. It happens that this frequency band is close to that which are spontaneously produced by postural sway during natural stance.

Molecular and Cellular Hallmarks of Age‐Related Vestibular Hair Cell Degeneration

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study utilizes single‐cell RNA‐seq transcriptomes, advanced imaging, and electrophysiology to examine universal and cell‐type‐specific aging signatures of vestibular hair cells. The study shows that impaired hair bundle function is a key driver of age‐related vestibular dysfunction.

HMGCR‐Driven Cholesterol Metabolism Promotes Osteoarthritis Progression by Accelerating Synovial Fibroblast Senescence

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
In the pathological context of osteoarthritis (OA), the phosphorylation of AKT1 at Ser473 enhances its binding to Lys140 of Insig1, which facilitates the formation of AKT1–Insig1 complex. Subsequently, the activation of AKT1 promotes the phosphorylation of Insig1 at Ser189, potentially enhancing the dissociation of Insig1 from sterol regulatory element‑

Highly Repeatable Fibrous Crack‐Based Strain Sensor for Multichannel Continuous Tremor Monitoring in Parkinson's Disease and Essential Tremor

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study proposes a patch‐type tremor monitoring system based on high‐repeatable fibrous crack‐based strain sensor, capable of simultaneously measuring tremor in multiple locations such as thumb, index, and wrist. Through clinical trials involving Parkinson's disease and essential tremor patients, the proposed system demonstrates its potential as a ...

Relationship Between Postural Control and Restricted, Repetitive Behaviors in Autism Spectrum Disorders

open access: yesFrontiers in Integrative Neuroscience, 2013
Restricted, repetitive behaviors (RRBs) are one of the core diagnostic criteria of autism spectrum disorders (ASD), and include simple repetitive motor behaviors and more complex cognitive behaviors, such as compulsions and restricted interests.

The Rim and the Ancient Mariner: The Nautical Horizon Affects Postural Sway in Older Adults. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2016
On land, the spatial magnitude of postural sway (i.e., the amount of sway) tends to be greater when participants look at the horizon than when they look at nearby targets.
