Postural control is scaled to level of postural threat
Gait & Posture, 2000This study investigated control of posture when standing at different surface heights above ground level. Alterations in surface height were used to modify threat to postural control. Sixty-two healthy adults (mean+/-S.D.=20.3+/-1.3 years) stood quietly on a force plate 40 cm (LOW threat), 100 cm (MEDIUM threat) or 160 cm (HIGH threat) above ground ...

This chapter discusses the anatomic basis related to control of head and trunk posture, and symptom and syndromes caused by its impairment. The spinal cord contains machinery for stepping, the locomotor generator. However, the spinal cord is under the control of supraspinal centers. In human walking, intention or attention takes part to various degrees,

Postural restrictions in labyrintholithiasis
European Archives of Oto-Rhino-Laryngology, 2002Benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV) is the most frequent labyrinthopathy in humans. Treatment consists mainly of liberatory maneuvers aiming to remove otolithic debris and subsequent postural restrictions in order to prevent debris from returning into the canal.

POSTURE plays a vital role in the life of man; its importance is often ignored until too late. At the earliest possible age the child should be helped to understand how posture affects his social and mental life as well as his physical abilities. But before parents and teachers can help children to develop understanding and habits of good posture, they

Mean lateral tracings of a statistically valid sample of body-build photographs show lateral posture positions which must be considered characteristic of each body type. The term "orthogram" is suggested to indicate the manner of arriving at these posture patterns.

The effect of asymmetry of posture on anticipatory postural adjustments
Neuroscience Letters, 2006The study investigates the effect of body asymmetry on anticipatory postural adjustments (APAs). Subjects performed a task involving a standard load release induced by a shoulder abduction movement while standing symmetrically or in an asymmetrical stance with either their right or left leg in 45 degrees of external rotation.
