Using a Brief Body Sway Assessment Device to Track Balance Differences across the Huntington's Disease Integrated Staging System Spectrum

open access: yesMovement Disorders Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Huntington's disease (HD) is an autosomal dominant neurodegenerative disorder caused by a mutation in the huntingtin gene on chromosome 4, leading to progressive cognitive decline, motor impairment, and functional disability. Although balance impairment is recognized in HD, its onset and evolution with disease stage remain poorly ...

Achilles tendon shear wave speed tracks the dynamic modulation of standing balance

open access: yesPhysiological Reports, 2019
Standing balance performance is often characterized by sway, as measured via fluctuations of the center of pressure (COP) under the feet. For example, COP metrics can effectively delineate changes in balance under altered sensory conditions. However, COP

The effects of cervical muscle fatigue on balance - A study with elite amateur rugby league players [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Neck muscle fatigue has been shown to alter an individual’s balance in a similar way to that reported in subjects suffering from neck pain or subjects that have suffered a neck injury.

Interference between postural control and mental task performance in patients with vestibular disorder and healthy controls

open access: yes, 2001
OBJECTIVES - To determine whether interference between postural control and mental task performance in patients with balance system impairment and healthy subjects is due to general capacity limitations, motor control interference, competition for ...

Vestibular Dysfunction in Parkinson's Disease: A Systematic Review of Signs and Symptoms

open access: yesMovement Disorders Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Despite the growing interest in the link between Parkinson's disease (PD) neuropathology and vestibular system, there is still a lack of consensus about the presence of vestibular dysfunctions in PD. Objective This review aims to identify vestibular signs and symptoms reported in PD patients and to summarize and critically appraise ...

Persistent postural‐perceptual dizziness versus vestibular migraine: A narrative review

open access: yesHeadache: The Journal of Head and Face Pain, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective This article reviews the differences and similarities between persistent postural‐perceptual dizziness (PPPD) and vestibular migraine. Background PPPD is considered a chronic functional vestibular disorder characterized by persistent dizziness, unsteadiness, nonspinning vertigo, and often exacerbated by upright posture, movement, or ...

Wearable Inertial Sensors to Assess Standing Balance: A Systematic Review

open access: yesSensors, 2019
Wearable sensors are de facto revolutionizing the assessment of standing balance. The aim of this work is to review the state-of-the-art literature that adopts this new posturographic paradigm, i.e., to analyse human postural sway through inertial ...

Balance control impairments in Fabry disease

open access: yesFrontiers in Neurology, 2022
BackgroundFabry disease (FD) is a rare inherited lysosomal storage disorder caused by the deficiency of the enzyme alpha-galactosidase A. This deficiency leads to an accumulation of glycosphingolipids leading to progressive and multisystemic disease ...

Visual and vestibular reweighting after cyber‐ and space‐sickness

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Sensory conflicts are widely recognized as the primary drivers of motion sickness (MS), though the underlying integrative processes remain poorly understood. This study investigated sensory reweighting following exposure to two different sensory conflict paradigms. Visual and vestibular reflexes were assessed before and after sensory conflict.
