The parietal cortex contributes to multisensory information processing in the postural control system, and this processing is proposed to be different between the right and left hemispheres and sensory modality. However, previous studies did not clarify whether the effects of unilateral C-tDCS of the parietal cortex on the postural control system differ depending on the hemisphere. We investigated the changes in static postural stability after unilateral C-tDCS of the parietal cortex.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec id=\"sec002\">\n                    <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      Ten healthy right-handed participants were recruited for right- and left-hemisphere tDCS and sham stimulation, respectively. The cathodal electrode was placed on either the right or left parietal area, whereas the anodal electrode was placed over the contralateral orbit. tDCS was applied at 1.5 mA for 15 min. We evaluated static standing balance by measuring the sway path length (SPL), mediolateral sway path length (ML-SPL), anteroposterior sway path length (AP-SPL), sway area, and the SPL per unit area (L\/A) after 15-minute C-tDCS under eyes open (EO) and closed (EC) conditions. To evaluate the effects of C-tDCS on pre- and post-offline trials, each parameter was compared using two-way repeated-measures analysis of variance (ANOVA) with factors of intervention and time. A post-hoc evaluation was performed using a paired t-test. The effect sizes were evaluated according to standardized size-effect indices of partial eta-squared (\u03b7p\n                      <jats:sup>2<\/jats:sup>\n                      ) and Cohen\u2019s d.

C-tDCS over the right hemisphere significantly increased the SPL (p &lt; 0.01, d = 0.51), ML-SPL (p &lt; 0.01, d = 0.52), and sway area (p &lt; 0.05, d = 0.83) in the EO condition. In contrast, C-tDCS over the left hemisphere significantly increased the L\/A in both the EC and EO condition (EO; p &lt; 0.05, d = 0.67, EC; p &lt; 0.05, d = 0.57).\n                    <\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec id=\"sec004\">\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>These results suggest that the right parietal region contributes to static standing balance through chiefly visual information processing during the EO condition. On the other hand, L\/A increase during EC and EO by tDCS over the left parietal region depends more on somatosensory information to maintain static standing balance during the EC condition.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1371\/journal.pone.0269145","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2022,9,22]],"date-time":"2022-09-22T14:21:26Z","timestamp":1663856486000},"page":"e0269145","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1371\/journal.pone.corrections_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":4,"title":["Unilateral cathodal transcranial direct current stimulation over the parietal area modulates postural control depending with eyes open and closed"],"prefix":"10.1371","volume":"17","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-3422-0963","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"Shinichiro","family":"Oka","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Takuro","family":"Ikeda","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Tsubasa","family":"Mitsutake","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-7559-9615","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"Katsuya","family":"Ogata","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Yoshinobu","family":"Goto","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"340","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2022,9,22]]},"reference":[{"issue":"3","key":"pone.0269145.ref001","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"1097","DOI":"10.1152\/jn.2002.88.3.1097","article-title":"Sensorimotor integration in human postural control","volume":"88","author":"RJ Peterka","year":"2002","journal-title":"Journal of neurophysiology"},{"issue":"14","key":"pone.0269145.ref002","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"R691","DOI":"10.1016\/j.cub.2017.06.007","article-title":"Posterior parietal cortex","volume":"27","author":"JR Whitlock","year":"2017","journal-title":"Current biology"},{"issue":"8","key":"pone.0269145.ref003","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"1479","DOI":"10.1093\/brain\/121.8.1479","article-title":"Horizontal or vertical optokinetic stimulation activates visual motion-sensitive, ocular motor and vestibular cortex areas with right hemispheric dominance.
