Efeitos da realização de tarefas duplas no desempenho da marcha em idosos
(Universidade Federal de Minas GeraisUFMG, 2010-12-11)
Maintaining stability in the march was traditionally considered an automatic task or a reflex control, requiring motor responses to sensory stimuli, but requiring minimal cognitive resources. Thus, gait control would be ...
Prefrontal Cortex Activity During Walking: Effects of Aging and Associations With Gait and Executive Function
(2020-01-01)
Background: Declines in gait parameters are common with aging and more pronounced in tasks with increased executive demand. However, the neural correlates of age-related gait impairments are not fully understood yet. ...
Dual tasking reduces gait asymmetry of trajectory deviation during obstacle circumvention in people with Parkinson's disease
(2022-06-01)
Background: Certain aspects of gait may depend on cognition, and the effects of dual-tasking (DT) on gait asymmetry (GA) during obstacle circumvention in people with Parkinson's disease (pwPD) may be walking phase-dependent. ...
Lower limb muscle coactivation levels in healthy younger and older adults during functional dual-task gait
(Universidade Estadual Paulista (Unesp), Instituto de Biociências, 2013-01-01)
The purpose of this study was to investigate the influence of daily cognitive task on stiffness of old and young female adults during the gait. The study included 17 physically active younger and 18 older women, with low ...
Gait and risk of falls associated with frontal cognitive functions at different stages of Alzheimer's disease
(Psychology PressHoveInglaterra, 2012)
Development and Evaluation of Camera-based System for Analysis of Dual-task in Faller and Non-faller Older Adults: Gait combined with Prehension
(Universidade Federal do Espírito SantoBRPrograma de Pós-Graduação em Engenharia ElétricaUFESMestrado em Engenharia Elétrica, 2019-02-18)
Over the years, the population is aging rapidly and this is a global social and economic problem. As the age advances, it compromises the performance of motor abilities leading to an increased risk of falls. Recent studies ...
A program of physical activity improves gait impairment in people with Alzheimer's disease
(2018-01-01)
Aim: This study aimed to identify the effects of aging and Alzheimer's disease (AD) on gait parameters after a four-month period and to investigate the effects of a four-month program of physical activity, with emphasis ...
