Neuroimaging and cognitive correlates of postural control in Parkinson's disease: a systematic review.

ABSTRACT: Parkinson's disease (PD) can cause postural instability, which may result in falls. These issues have been associated with motor and non-motor symptoms (NMS), including cognitive dysfunction. Several techniques have been employed to investigate the underlying neural mechanisms involved in postural control in PD. These include behavioural studies assessing associations between cognition and postural control, functional neuroimaging studies, and resting-state neural correlates. This review provides an overview of these emerging bodies of research. Scopus, PubMed, and ProQuest were searched and detailed the brain-imaging technique, cohort, and postural control measures. A total of 79 studies were identified. Findings supported the notion of cortical involvement in postural control function to
