Universal and individual characteristics of postural sway during quiet standing in healthy young adults
The time course of the center of pressure (CoP) during human quiet standing, corresponding to body sway, is a stochastic process, influenced by a variety of features of the underlying neuro-musculo-skeletal system, such as postural stability and flexibility. Due to complexity of the process, sway patterns have been characterized in an empirical way by a number of indices, such as sway size and ...
متن کاملPostural sway during quiet standing is related to physiological tremor and muscle volume in young and elderly adults.
To examine the age-related deterioration in postural control, we investigated the association between postural sway during quiet standing and either amplitude of physiological tremor or muscle volume of the plantar flexors in 20 young and 20 elderly adults. They maintained a quiet standing position on a force platform for 60s with their eyes open or closed. During quiet standing, physiological ...
متن کاملEffect of chewing on postural stability during quiet standing in healthy young males.
BACKGROUND AND AIMS There is an important role of the neck sensory motor system in control of body posture and balance, and it is reasonable to believe that the jaw sensory motor system can directly and indirectly influence the modulation of the postural control system. The purpose of this study was to evaluate possible effects of dynamic jaw position while chewing on the postural control syste...
متن کاملPostural sway during dual tasks in young and elderly adults.
BACKGROUND Previous studies have shown that healthy young adults are able to decrease their standing postural sway when an additional postural visual task, such as reading, is performed. OBJECTIVE In this study, we investigated postural sway during dual tasks in young and elderly adults. METHODS Twelve healthy active elderly adults (aged 65-75 years) and 12 healthy young adults (aged 22-39 ...
متن کاملPostural sway following cryotherapy in healthy adults.
In light of the wide use of cryotherapy and its potential negative effects on postural stability, little is known about how postural sway is affected, particularly when the whole lower limb is immersed. The purpose of this study was to analyze the influence of cryotherapy on postural sway in healthy males. Twenty-six subjects were randomly assigned into two intervention groups: control (tepid w...
