Abstract: Purpose. We investigated the effect of fat mass value (based on skinfold thickness) and body mass index (BMI) on the center of pressure sway to assess the possibility of predicting the stability of postmenopausal women with and without osteoporosis during the standing position. Methods. A total of 78 postmenopausal women participated voluntarily in the study. Postmenopausal (aged 55–75

TL;DR: About half of Iranian menopausal women have low bone density, which is a considered to be a significant predisposing factor for the incidence of osteoporosis and its complications.

Effects of Overweight and Obesity on Postural Stability of Aging Females
TL;DR: Obesity had a negative influence on postural stability of elderly females in a quiet stance by measuring the center of pressure (CoP) velocity, but given the expansion of the support base, obese females were more stable than normal-weight females along the ML direction.

TL;DR: Self-judged fear significantly was found to decrease postural sway, more specifically the normalized total excursion of the center of pressure (TE), both in the presence and absence of height.
Postural instability and position of the center of pressure into the base of support in postmenopausal osteoporotic and nonosteoporotic women with and without hyperkyphosis.
TL;DR: It appears that thoracic hyperkyphosis affects postural instability in the AP direction and that a decrease of BMD affects postures stability in the ML direction.

Effects of adiposity on postural control and cognition in older adults.
Hao Meng,Stacey L. Gorniak +1 more
TL;DR: Overall, the findings indicate that increased adiposity in OAs is associated with declines in both cognitive function and postural control, and measures such as BMI and abdominal fat mass amounts/ratios offer the best insight to the impact of adiposity on Cognitive function andPostural control measures.
