The Contribution of Postural Adjustments to Body Balance and Motor Performance
The control of balance by the central nervous system is crucial to maintain our posture and perform efficiently our daily motor tasks. This control requires the development of dynamical phenomena sub-served by highly-coordinated patterns of muscle activation/deactivation disseminated throughout the whole-body and called “postural adjustments”. Establishing the interaction between balance control, locomotion and cognition has important clinical implication, especially in term of falls prevention, and will improve our knowledge on the underlying neural correlates. This Research Topic provides an up-to-date picture of the relationship between postural adjustments, body balance and motor per...
Recent Advances in Scoliosis
This book contains information on recent advances in aetiology and pathogenesis of idiopathic scoliosis, for the assessment of this condition before treatment and during the follow-up, making a note of emerging technology and analytical techniques like virtual anatomy by 3-D MRI/CT, quantitative MRI and Moire Topography. Some new trends in conservative treatment and the long term outcome and complications of surgical treatment are described. Issues like health related quality of life, psychological aspects of scoliosis treatment and the very important "patient's perspective" are also discussed. Finally two chapters tapping the untreated early onset scoliosis and the congenital kyphoscoliosis due to hemivertebra are included. It must be emphasized that knowledgeable authors with their contributions share their experience and enthusiasm with peers interested in scoliosis.
Media as Procedures of Communication
The book explores the multifaceted nature of media and communication by challenging traditional views that consider media solely as technical infrastructures for transmitting information. Instead, it focuses on mediality as an empirically relevant concept and proposes to understand media as socially constituted semiotic procedures that shape and are shaped by communicative practices. The book is structured around this central idea, with four main sections. Part I examines digital environments, analyzing the interplay between multimodal approaches and mediality through case studies such as digital learning platforms and Zoom seminars. Part II focuses on journalistic procedures, investigating ...

Promoting Health for Computer Users in the Workplace
Workplace health promotion and well-being are essential for raising awareness about potential health risks, and helping workers avoid them in order to lead a more fulfilling life. The present book presents the health risks that computer users are prone to and possible measures for the mitigation of said risks. For example, the book outlines the effects of different spa treatments for relieving muscular tension, which can be a side effect of the sedentary nature of computer use in the workplace. In addition to physical inactivity, computer users also suffer from unhealthy eating habits. So, the book also outlines dietary and physical activity recommendations for people working with computers and suggests measures for employers to implement in the office. Working long hours on the computer leaves a mark on one’s mental health; the adverse effects are related to addictions or the infliction of stressful situations like cyberbullying. In recent years, online working or meeting environments have become popular, which has led to the emergence of Zoom fatigue. The current book provides suggestions for participating in online meetings more healthily.
