Abstract Background. White matter hyperintensities (WMHs) are associated with fall risk
factors in older people including reduced cognitive functioning and impaired balance and …

Abstract White Matter Hyperintensities (WMHs) are associated with impaired gait, balance
and cognition and increased fall risk in cognitively healthy older people. However, few …

Background. Greater volume of cerebral white matter hyperintensities (WMH) of presumed
vascular origin may affect postural control and gait. WMH measured at one time point …

Objective: The presence of an association between white matter hyperintensity (WMH) and
the risk of falls in older people is uncertain, with little supporting prospective evidence …

White matter hyperintensities (WMH) are associated with greater falls risk and slow gait
speed. Whether these deficits are caused by the disruption of large-scale functional …

Background: Ageing is associated with physical disability, but little is known about the
influence of white matter hyperintensities (WMHs) on physical function decline in older …

Objective To investigate the impact white matter hyperintensities (WMH) detected on
magnetic resonance imaging have on motor dysfunction and cognitive impairment in elderly …

Background Age-related mobility limitations are debilitating and common. Cerebral white
matter hyperintensities (WMH) and conditions affecting other systems are known …

Background and Purpose—White matter lesions (WMLs) are common findings on
neuroimaging in older people. This review systematically evaluates the published literature …

Frontal lobe structures decline faster than most other brain regions in older adults. Age-
related change in the frontal lobe is associated with poorer executive function (eg, working …
