DOI: 10.1002/brb3.1929
Abstract: Postural sway may be useful as an objective measure of Parkinson's disease (PD). Existing studies have analyzed many different features of sway using different experimental paradigms. We aimed to determine what features have been used… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s00221-017-5126-x
Abstract: This study aimed to investigate the variability in postural sway patterns during quiet standing in stroke survivors. The postural sway was measured in 19 stroke survivors, as well as 19 healthy demographically matched participants, at… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s00406-021-01234-2
Abstract: Neurocognitive deficits are implicated in individuals that meet criteria for a clinical high-risk (CHR) syndrome. Evidence in patients with schizophrenia suggests that cerebellar dysfunction may underlie neurocognitive deficits. However, little research has examined if similar… read more here.

Isokinetic eccentric exercise substantially improves mobility, muscle strength and size, but not postural sway metrics in older adults, with limited regression observed following a detraining period

DOI: 10.1007/s00421-020-04466-7
Abstract: Eccentric exercise can reverse age-related decreases in muscle strength and mass; however, no data exist describing its effects on postural sway. As the ankle may be more important for postural sway than hip and knee… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s40520-017-0872-y
Abstract: Holding asymmetrical loads in the hands is common during many daily and occupational activities which, depending on the load mass, may alter postural stability. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.archoralbio.2018.10.018
Abstract: OBJECTIVES This study tested the hypothesis that modulation of jaw sensorimotor control by intraoral dental appliance can reduce postural sway during quiet standing and hence improve standing balance, in patients with whiplash associated disorders (WAD)… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.humov.2020.102752
Abstract: The 'quiet eye' (QE) approach to visually-guided aiming behavior invests fully in perceptual information's potential to organize coordinated action. Sports psychologists refer to QE as the stillness of the eyes during aiming tasks and increasingly… read more here.

Co-contraction of ankle muscle activity during quiet standing in individuals with incomplete spinal cord injury is associated with postural instability
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2021 at "Scientific Reports"
DOI: 10.1038/s41598-021-99151-w
Abstract: Previous findings indicate that co-contractions of plantarflexors and dorsiflexors during quiet standing increase the ankle mechanical joint stiffness, resulting in increased postural sway. Balance impairments in individuals with incomplete spinal cord injury (iSCI) may be… read more here.
