<title>Abstract</title> Anticipatory postural adjustments (APAs) are crucial for maintaining stability during voluntary movements such as gait initiation. While APAs have been extensively studied in forward stepping, little is known about their characteristics turning This study aimed to identify the of (i) and subsequent first steps healthy older adults (HOA) (ii) compare them people with Parkinson’s (pwPD). Thirty-six pwPD (tested on medication) 24 HOA performed self-paced uncontrived 360˚...
The dynamical nature of gait increases fall risk for older adults as the Center Mass (COM) is constantly displaced inside and outside Base Support (BOS). Foot placement leg joint moments are primary mechanisms controlling dynamic balance. Margin Stability (MOS) quantifies distance between COM state BOS. While research examined how aging affects relationship foot MOS, to unexamined. Examining this would elucidate whether from changes in COM. Fourteen (66.9 ± 4.3 years) sixteen young (26.3 3.6...
Lateral stepping is a motor task that widely used in everyday life to modify the base of support, change direction, and avoid obstacles. Anticipatory Postural Adjustments (APAs) are often analyzed describe postural preparation prior forward stepping, however, little known about lateral stepping. The aim study characterize APAs preceding steps investigate how these affected by footwear lower limb preference. Twenty-two healthy young participants performed step using both their preferred...
