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.

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 ...

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

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 ...

Ageing changes the proprioceptive contribution to balance control under different types of mastoid vibration: A cross‐sectional study

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Ageing‐related sensory deteriorations are significantly associated with poor balance control among older individuals, resulting in a higher risk of falling in a dark environment. In particular, the proprioceptive system plays a critical role in maintaining balance.

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.

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 ...
