Published in 2020 at "Neuroscience Letters"

DOI: 10.1016/j.neulet.2020.135398

Abstract: Movement persistency, reflected in systematic cycle to cycle fluctuations of a rhythmical task such as walking or voluntary sway, is compromised with increasing age, making older adults more susceptible to falls. In the present study,… read more here.

Published in 2021 at "World neurosurgery"

DOI: 10.1016/j.wneu.2020.12.175

Abstract: OBJECTIVE The relationship between quantitative posturography results and growth of vestibular schwannoma during conservative management has not been studied. We aimed to clarify the relationship between the presence of disequilibrium based on posturographic measurement and… read more here.

Published in 2025 at "Physical Therapy"

DOI: 10.1093/ptj/pzaf021

Abstract: Abstract Importance During rehabilitation, the balance of a person with stroke is commonly monitored using the Berg Balance Scale and the Mini-Balance Evaluation Systems Test. These tests evaluate the ability to maintain balance in an… read more here.

Published in 2023 at "IEEE Transactions on Neural Systems and Rehabilitation Engineering"

DOI: 10.1109/tnsre.2023.3267807

Abstract: Typical assessments of balance impairment are subjective or require data from cumbersome and expensive force platforms. Researchers have utilized lower back (sacrum) accelerometers to enable more accessible, objective measurement of postural sway for use in… read more here.

Published in 2020 at "Journal of Cognitive Neuroscience"

DOI: 10.1162/jocn_a_01659

Abstract: A periodically reversing optic flow animation, experienced while standing, induces an involuntary sway termed visually induced postural sway (VIPS). Interestingly, VIPS is suppressed during light finger touch to a stationary object. Here, we explored whether… read more here.

Published in 2020 at "PLoS ONE"

DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0233988

Abstract: Light touch with an earth-fixed reference point improves balance during quite standing. In our current study, we implemented a paradigm to assess the effects of disrupting the right posterior parietal cortex on dynamic stabilization of… read more here.

Published in 2017 at "Clinical Interventions in Aging"

DOI: 10.2147/cia.s131047

Abstract: Atypically high postural sway measured by a force plate is a known risk factor for falls in older adults. Further, it has been shown that small, but significant, reductions in postural sway are possible with… read more here.

Published in 2023 at "Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine"

DOI: 10.3389/fcvm.2023.1040036

Abstract: Introduction Healthy individuals with poor cardiovascular control, but who do not experience syncope (fainting), adopt an innate strategy of increased leg movement in the form of postural sway that is thought to counter orthostatic (gravitational)… read more here.

Published in 2025 at "Frontiers in Aging Neuroscience"

DOI: 10.3389/fnagi.2025.1650484

Abstract: Background Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) negatively impacts both the peripheral and central systems involved in postural control, leading to impairments, especially under dual-task conditions. This study investigated the effects of T2DM on postural sway… read more here.

Published in 2019 at "Frontiers in Physiology"

DOI: 10.3389/fphys.2019.00643

Abstract: Ankle muscle fatigue has been shown to increase body sway. In addition, body sway in quiet upright standing is reduced when saccadic eye movements are performed. The purpose of this study was to investigate the… read more here.
