Bilateral Differences in Dancers' Dynamic Postural Stability During Jump Landings
(2020)Although traditional dance training aims to train dancers' legs equally, the recognized practice of predominately starting and repeating exercises on one side more than the other has led to suggestions that technique classes ... -
Devices and tasks involved in the objective assessment of standing dynamic balancing – A systematic literature review
(2017)Background: Static balancing assessment is often complemented with dynamic balancing tasks. Numerous dynamic balancing assessment methods have been developed in recent decades with their corresponding balancing devices and ... -
The Effect of Posture on Intraocular Pressure and Systemic Hemodynamic Parameters in Treated and Untreated Patients with Primary Open-Angle Glaucoma
(2017)Purpose: To assess intraocular pressure (IOP), systolic, diastolic, and mean arterial blood pressure (SBP, DBP, MAP) changes in the sitting, supine, and 20° head-down (Trendelenburg) position in treated (tPOAG) and untreated ... -
Notions of “optimal” posture are loaded with meaning. Perceptions of sitting posture among asymptomatic members of the community
