Active vision task and postural control in healthy, young adults: Synergy and probably not duality

Falls and postural control in older adults with cataracts

Background: There is increasing evidence that visual impairment contribute to falling. The aim of this study was to determine the influence of vision impairment of old adult patients with cataract on the occurrence of falls and postural control. Methods:According to the results of screening ophthalmic examination, 48 cataract patients (mean±SD aged 68.5 ± 6.08 yrs.) and 50 individuals withou...

Study postural control position in relation to anthropometric and postural Indicators of Active Persons

Objective: The purpose of this study was to investigate postural control position in relation to anthropometric and postural Indicators of Active Persons. Methods: The statistical population of the present study was active Persons (mean age: 21.15 ± 2.02 years, height: 1.78 ± 0.07 cm, weight: 71/50 ± 10.15 kg, BMI: 22.45 ± 2.53 kg / m2) University of Guilan were in the academic year of 97-98. ...

Postural Control in Healthy Young Adults with and without Chronic Motion Sensitivity

Background: Postural control requires complex processing of peripheral sensory inputs from the visual, somatosensory and vestibular systems. Motion sensitivity and decreased postural control are influenced by visual-vestibular conflicts. The purpose of this study was to measure the difference between the postural control of healthy adults with and without history of sub-clinical chronic motion ...

Title Differences in muscle coactivation during postural control between healthy older and young adults

Differences in muscle coactivation during postural control between healthy older and young adults.

The purpose of this study was to clarify the difference in muscle coactivation during postural control between older and young adults and to identify the characteristics of postural control strategies in older adults by investigating the relationship between muscle coactivation and postural control ability. Forty-six healthy older adults (82.0±7.5 years) and 34 healthy young adults (22.1±2.3 ye...
