The interest in virtual reality (VR) applications has been on the rise in recent years. However, the impact of VR on postural stability remains unclear....
The study has two primary objectives: first, to compare postural stability in a 3D-immersed virtual reality environment (VE) and a real environment (RE), and second, to investigate the effect of posit...
The observational study recruited 20 healthy adults (10 male, 10 female, 22.8 ± 1.8 years) who underwent postural stability assessments in both RE and VE. In VE, participants received visual stimuli i...
All postural stability variables were significantly lower in the RE than in the VE (p < 0.05). There was no significant difference between the VE and EC in terms of sway velocity and sway area (p > 0....
This is the first and only study examining the effect of different visual feedback on postural stability in VE....
The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of young tennis players' expertise on their postural balance (PB) under sensorial conditions with eyes open (EO) and with eyes closed (EC). Our part...
We aimed to investigate the effect of music on visually impaired adolescents' postural balance across different somatosensory and vestibular input conditions. We recruited 19 adolescent participants (...
Alteration of posturo-respiratory coupling (PRC) may precede postural imbalance in patients with chronic respiratory disease. PRC assessment would be appropriate for early detection of respiratory-rel...
After confirming the measurement properties of the Berg Balance Scale (BBS) in patients with stroke by conducting a Rasch analysis, this study sought: (i) to generate a keyform as a tool for goal-sett...
Methodological analyses of cross-sectional study data....
A pooled sample of 156 patients with stroke: mean (standard deviation) age 74.4 (12.9) years....
This study evaluated the BBS's rating scale structure, unidimensionality, and measurement accuracy (0: unable to perform or requiring help, to 4: normal performance) and then generated a keyform and s...
The BBS rating scale fulfilled the category functioning criteria. Principal component analysis of standardized residuals confirmed the unidimensionality of the test. All items fit the Rasch analysis. ...
The BBS has strong measurement properties. This study generated both a keyform that can contribute to clinicians' decision-making in goalsetting and intervention-planning and strata that can facilitat...
Adequate postural strategies have a pivotal role in ensuring balance during the performance of daily or sport activities. These strategies are responsible for the management of center of mass kinemati...
Are there differences in postural performance after a standardized balance training performed in sitting versus standing posture in healthy subjects? Does a standardized unilateral balance training wi...
Seventy-five healthy subjects reporting a right-leg dominance were randomized into a Sitting, Standing, Dominant, Non-dominant or Control groups. In the Experiment 1, Sitting group performed a 3-week ...
A standardized balance training in sitting or standing posture improved balance without between-group differences, while a unilateral balance training with the dominant or non-dominant limb improved p...
These results may allow clinicians to plan effective balance interventions even when a training in standing posture is not possible or in subjects with restricted limb weight-bearing....
Dual-task designs have been used to study the degree of automatic and controlled processing involved in postural balance. The aim of the present study was to explore postural balance performance durin...
Fifteen children with intellectual disability aged from 7 to 12 years old and fifteen age-matched children with typical development participated in this study. Participants were asked to maintain stat...
The results showed that dual-task similarly affects postural performance of both typically developing children and those with intellectual disability (...
Children with intellectual disability and children with typical development have difficulties in maintaining their balance when carrying out a concurrent cognitive task. Intellectual disability did no...
The mechanical consequences of the motor actions used to maintain upright standing balance can be discriminated in two mechanisms: i) moving the center of pressure (CoP) within the base of support (M1...
Forty-one healthy young adults (19 females, 22.9 ± 2.9 years old) stood quietly on a forceplate, maintaining four different postures: bipedal, tandem, unipedal and unipedal on a 4-cm wooden bar; each ...
The posture impacted the mechanisms contributions, where the contribution of M1 decreased between each posture in the mediolateral direction as the area of the base of support was reduced. The contrib...
This suggests the contribution of M2 should not be neglected for the analysis of postural balance, and particularly in challenging standing postures....
To conduct a comprehensive systematic review and meta-analysis of the effects of active video game (AVG) interventions on postural balance across all ages in populations with and without neurologic im...
Six databases (PubMed, PsycINFO, Sport Discus, MEDLINE, Web of Science, and Google Scholar) were reviewed by December 31, 2020....
The protocol was registered in the International Prospective Register of Systematic Reviews (PROSPERO: CRD42020204191). For inclusion, a study must be original, published in English peer-reviewed venu...
Three reviewers independently performed data extraction and assessed the risk of bias....
129 studies were identified, with 102 eligible for meta-analysis. The total number of tested participants was 6407 (60.0% women, M...
AVGs can produce postural balance improvements and better postural maintenance. All populations could benefit from AVG interventions....
Patients with end-stage renal disease on hemodialysis have postural balance impairments due to uremic syndrome and hemodialysis complications. This study evaluated the factors associated with postural...
This cross-sectional study included patients on hemodialysis [n = 93, 62.0 (16.0) years]. Postural balance was evaluated using a force plate in a static position with eyes opened and eyes closed on a ...
After adjustment for potential confounders, the multiple linear regression analysis showed that the presence of diabetes mellitus and neurological disease and gait speed were significantly associated ...
Poor postural balance was associated with the presence of diabetes mellitus and neurological disease and a slower gait speed in patients on hemodialysis....
