Gait speed declines with age and slower walking speeds are associated with poor health outcomes. Understanding why we do not walk faster as we age, despite being able to, has implications for rehabilitation. Changes in regional oxygenated haemoglobin

Background: Postural control and cognition are affected by aging. We investigated whether cognitive distraction influenced neural activity differently in young and older adults during a game-like mediolateral weight-shifting task with a personalized

Parkinson’s disease (PD) is a common age-related neurodegenerative disease. Gait impairment is frequent in the later stages of PD contributing to reduced mobility and quality of life. Digital biomarkers such as gait velocity and step length are pre

BACKGROUND: Functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) is increasingly used in the field of posture and gait to investigate patterns of cortical brain activation while people move freely. fNIRS methods, analysis and reporting of data vary greatly

Longitudinal changes over thirty-six months in postural control dynamics and cognitive function in people with Parkinson's disease

Autor: Silvia Del Din, Lynn Rochester, Annette Pantall

Publikováno v: Gait & Posture. 62:468-474

Background Postural instability is a common motor feature in people with Parkinson's disease (PD) together with non-motor features such as cognitive dysfunction. Management of postural instability is challenging as it is often resistant to dopaminerg
