Differences in Peripheral Vision Between Contemporary Dancers, Folk Dancers and Non-Dancers

Dynamic postural control and associated attentional demands in contemporary dancers versus non-dancers

Postural control is not a fully automatic process, but requires a certain level of attention, particularly as the difficulty of the postural task increases. This study aimed at testing whether experienced contemporary dancers, because of their specialized training involving the control of posture/balance, would present with a dual-task performance suggesting lesser attentional demands associate...

Running head: LOW FREQUENCY EEG OF TANGO DANCERS AND NON-DANCERS 1 Low Frequency EEG Analysis of Argentine Tango Dancers and Non-Dancers

An evaluation of differences in hip external rotation strength and range of motion between female dancers and non-dancers.

OBJECTIVES To evaluate the differences in hip external rotation (ER) strength and inner, outer, and total hip ER range of motion (ROM) between dancers and non-dancers and between left and right sides in each group. METHODS Seventy one subjects (34 dancers and 37 non-dancers) volunteered for this study. The strength (truncated range average torque (TRAT), work, and angle specific torque (AST))...

Tiny dancers

A vital step in growth factor-driven angiogenesis is the coordinated engagement of endothelial integrins with the extracellular matrix. The molecular mechanisms that partner growth factors and integrins are being elucidated, revealing an intricate interaction of surface receptors and their signaling pathways.

Comparison of Cervical and Ocular Vestibular Evoked Myogenic Potentials in Dancers and Non-Dancers

The objective of the study was to assess the sacculocollic and otolith ocular pathway function using cervical vestibular evoked myogenic potentials (cVEMP) and ocular vestibular myogenic potentials (oVEMP) in dancers and non dancers. Total 16 subjects participated in the study. Out of 16 participants, 8 were trained in Indian classical form of dance (dancers) and other 8 participants who were n...
