Dyslexic children suffer from less informative visual cues to control posture
(Elsevier B.V., 2014-09-01)
The goal of this study was to investigate the effects of manipulation of the characteristics of visual stimulus on postural control in dyslexic children. A total of 18 dyslexic and 18 non-dyslexic children stood upright ...
Dual task interference on postural sway, postural transitions and gait in people with Parkinson's disease and freezing of gait
(2017-07-01)
Freezing of gait (FoG) is associated with less automatic gait and more impaired cognition, balance and postural transitions compared to people with PD who do not have FoG. However, it is unknown whether dual-task cost ...
Effects of vision on postural control in neurologically healthy individuals
(2017-02-07)
The purpose of this chapter was to characterize how the postural system of healthy individuals is capable of adaption when facing distinct levels of challenge, all planned to vary the visual context involved. A series of ...
Virtual reality head-mounted goggles increase the body sway of young adults during standing posture
(2020-10-15)
The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of wearing virtual reality head-mounted goggles (VR) on body sway in young adults. We run two experiments, in which we compared the body sway while standing during the ...
Complex systems approach to the study of posture and locomotion in older people
(2017-02-07)
Traditionally, the aging process has been viewed as something negative, a phenomenon that eventually results in frailty. However, the development and adaptive processes involved with the aging process are now understood ...
La construcción del esquema corporal infantil desde una perspectiva merleaupontyana. La propiocepción como fundamento del accouplement fenomenológico

Saccadic eye movements are able to reduce body sway in mildly-affected people with Multiple Sclerosis
(2019-05-01)
Background: Multiple Sclerosis (MS) is a neurodegenerative and inflammatory disease that impacts both visual and postural control. It is currently unknown how the integration between visual and postural control is affected ...
Effects of saccadic eye movements on postural control in older adults
(2015)
Saccadic eye movements have been shown to affect posture by decreasing the magnitude of body sway in young adults. However, there is no evidence of how the search for visual information that occurs during eye movements ...
Sleep deprivation affects sensorimotor coupling in postural control of young adults
(Elsevier B.V., 2014-06-27)
Although impairments in postural control have been reported due to sleep deprivation, the mechanisms underlying such performance decrements still need to be uncovered. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects ...
