Postural Stability Mechanisms in Locomotion
Title of Document: PROBING POSTURAL STABILITY MECHANISMS IN LOCOMOTION David M. Logan, M.A., 2009 Directed By: Professor John Jeka, Department of Kinesiology It is not currently known if those upright stability mechanisms utilized in standing posture are present in locomotion. In this investigation, subjects walked or stood on a treadmill in three speed conditions (posture, 1 km/h, 5 km/h) in f...
متن کاملPostural behaviour of intraocular pressure.
Raised intraocular pressure (lOP) is generally held responsible for causing visual loss in chronic simple glaucoma. It is therefore desirable that a safe level of lOP be maintained all the time. Elevation of lOP with change of body position has been suggested as one of the factors which result in tissue damage in low tension as well as in primary wide open angle glaucoma. Postural behaviour of ...
متن کاملPostural dependence of human locomotion during gait initiation.
The initiation of human walking involves postural motor actions for body orientation and balance stabilization that must be effectively integrated with locomotion to allow safe and efficient transport. Our ability to coordinately adapt these functions to environmental or bodily changes through error-based motor learning is essential to effective performance. Predictive compensations for postura...
متن کاملCombined effect of vestibular and craniomandibular disorders on postural behaviour.
A correlation has been reported in the dental literature between temporomandibular disorders and musculoskeletal abnormalities, however, the question whether they modify body postural sway remains controversial. In the present investigation, the Craniomandibular Index was used to evaluate the clinical extension of temporomandibular joint dysfunction and related problems in 40 patients with norm...
متن کاملChanges in Postural Syntax Characterize Sensory Modulation and Natural Variation of C. elegans Locomotion
Locomotion is driven by shape changes coordinated by the nervous system through time; thus, enumerating an animal's complete repertoire of shape transitions would provide a basis for a comprehensive understanding of locomotor behaviour. Here we introduce a discrete representation of behaviour in the nematode C. elegans. At each point in time, the worm's posture is approximated by its closest ma...
