Background The effects of balance training (BT) in older adults on proxies of postural control
and mobility are well documented in the literature. However, evidence-based dose …

Background: In addition to cognitive deficits, people with mild cognitive impairment (MCI)
can experience motor dysfunction, including deficits in gait and balance. Objective …

Background: Age-related postural misalignment, balance deficits and strength/power losses
are associated with impaired functional mobility and an increased risk of falling in seniors …

Dual-task designs have been used widely to study the degree of automatic and controlled
processing involved in postural stability of young and older adults. However, several …

Objective Falls are serious issues in older populations. Balance problems are a major cause
of falls and may lead to fear of falling and decreased balance confidence. The Otago …

Background With increasing age neuromuscular deficits (eg, sarcopenia) may result in
impaired physical performance and an increased risk for falls. Prominent intrinsic fall-risk …

This review summarizes our present knowledge about elderly people′ s problems with
walking. We highlight the plastic changes in the brain that allow a partial compensation of …

Objective To compare, rank and evaluate the 24 exercise types that improve postural
instability in patients with Parkinson's disease (PD). Methods We searched the data in …

This cross-sectional study investigated the age-related differences in dual-task performance
both in mobility and cognitive tasks and the additive dual-task costs in a sample of older …

Dynamic balance is vitally important for most sports and activities of daily living, so the
assessment of dynamic stability has become an important issue. In consequence, a large …
