Clinical Balance Assessments Often Rely On Functional Tasks As A Proxy For Balance (E.G., Timed Up And Go). In Contrast, Analyses Of Balance In Research Settings Incorporate Quantitative Biomechanical Measurements (E.G., Whole-Body Angular Momentum, ...
IMPORTANCE: Current Parkinson disease (PD) measures are subjective, rater-dependent, and assessed in clinic. Smartphones can measure PD features, yet no smartphone-derived rating score exists to assess motor symptom severity in real-world settings.

To maintain balance during dynamic locomotion, the effects of proprioceptive sensory feedback control (e.g. reflexive control) should not be ignored because of its simple sensation and fast reaction time. Scientists have identified the pathways of re...

Admittance control is considered as a promising paradigm in rehabilitation that provides us with means to establish well controlled and adjustable interaction and cooperation between rehabilitation devices and patients. Recently we developed balance ...
The processes underlying the generation of motor adaptation in response to mechanical perturbations during human walking have been subject to debate. We used a robotic system to apply mechanical perturbations to step length and step height over conse...
