    Effects of the administration of levodopa on postural control under visual tasks

    C. Bonnet, A. Delval, L. Defebvre (Lille, France)

    Objective: We tested if the administration of levodopa leads the patients with Parkinson’s disease to sway significantly more than the controls, especially under challenging visual…

    Sensory modulation of postural control in Huntington’s disease

    F. Porciuncula, K. Marder, P. Wasserman, A. Rao (New York, NY, USA)

    Objective: To characterize sensory modulation of postural control in Huntington's disease (HD); and to identify postural metrics that are sensitive in the prodromal stage of…

    Quantifying postural stability differences in people with Parkinson’s disease with and without freezing of gait, using body-worn sensors

    P. Carlson-Kuhta, M. El-Gohary, M. Mancini, F. Horak, J. Huisinga (Portland, OR, USA)

    Objective: To quantify differences in postural responses to perturbations in people with Parkinson disease (PD) with and without freezing of gait (FOG+, FOG-, resp.), using…

    Cortical excitability during a movement compared with postural control task in healthy subjects

    F. Chang, P. Menon, M. VanDen Bos, M. Kiernan, S. Vucic, V. Fung (Sydney, Australia)

    Objective: To investigate cortical excitability and surround cortical inhibition during movement compared with postural control task in healthy subjects. Background: Motor control has traditionally been…

    Dopamine replacement influences on postural motor learning in Parkinson disease

    S. Paul, G. Olivier, C. Walter, S. Schaefer, L. Dibble (Salt Lake City, UT, USA)

    Objective: To determine if i) dopamine replacement affects general and sequence specific learning of a postural task in people with Parkinson disease (PD), and ii)…

    Determinants of balance confidence and concern about falling in people with Parkinson’s disease

    L. Almeida, G. Valenca, E. Pinto, J. Oliveira-Filho (Salvador, Brazil)

    Objective: To identify factors that contribute to balance confidence and concern about falling in people with Parkinson’s disease (PD). Background: Reduced balance confidence and greater…

    Postural control is maintained after a 8-months period of exercise in people with Parkinson’s disease

    L. Gobbi, N. Rinaldi, P. Pelicioni, E. Lirani-Silva, L. Moraes, M. Pereira (Rio Claro, Brazil)

    Objective: Our aim was to investigate the effects of different long-lasting exercises programs on the postural control in people with Parkinson’s disease (PD). Background: Postural…
