The Effect of Ankle–Foot Orthoses and Their Characteristics on Balance, and Postural Control in Children With Cerebral Palsy: A Systematic Review [PDF]

Health Sci Rep
ABSTRACT Background and Aims Cerebral palsy (CP) frequently compromises postural control and balance in children. Ankle–foot orthoses (AFOs) are routinely prescribed to improve stability, yet the influence of specific design parameters—stiffness, alignment, and individualized tuning—on balance outcomes remains inadequately characterized.

Effects of Short-Term Dynamic Balance Training on Postural Stability in School-Aged Football Players and Gymnasts

Frontiers in Psychology, 2021
Static and dynamic balance abilities enable simple and complex movements and are determinants of top athletic performance. Balance abilities and their proficiency differ fundamentally with respect to age, gender, type of balance intervention, and type of

Effects of ethanol on non-invasively recorded cerebellar, cerebral, and postural responses to axial perturbation: A case study. [PDF]

Physiol Rep
Abstract We report for the first time non‐invasively recorded ethanol (EtOH) induced changes in the spontaneous and evoked activity of the human cerebellum. We recorded electroencephalography (EEG), electro‐cerebellography (ECeG), lower limb electro‐myography (EMG), and posturography in a 64 year old adult male before and after oral ingestion of EtOH ...

Dynamic postural balance indices can help discriminate between patients with multiple system atrophy and Parkinson's disease

Frontiers in Neurology, 2023
BackgroundPatients with Parkinson's disease (PD) and those with multiple system atrophy (MSA) show similar symptoms but have different clinical treatments. It will be helpful to discriminate between these two kinds of patients at an early or middle stage.

The Use of the Static Posturography to Assess Balance Performance in a Parkinson’s Disease Population [PDF]

, 2023
The literature has shown contradictory results so far about the use of posturography, especially static posturography, to evaluate balance performance in Parkinson’s disease (PD) populations.
