Dementia and gait impairments often coexist in older adults and patients with
neurodegenerative disease. Both conditions represent independent risk factors for falls. The …

Most people with Parkinson's disease (PD) fall and many experience recurrent falls. The aim
of this review was to examine the scope of recurrent falls and to identify factors associated …

Introduction Given the high rate of falls during walking in people with idiopathic Parkinson's
disease (PD), identifying at risk individuals and developing targeted interventions to reduce …

Gait is emerging as a powerful measurement tool in neurodegenerative disorders to identify
markers of incipient pathology, inform diagnostic algorithms and disease progression, and …

A growing body of literature has reported the effects of dual tasks on gait performance in
people with Parkinson's disease (PD). The purpose of this meta-analysis was to synthesize …

Dual-task interference during gait is a common phenomenon in older adults and people with
Parkinson's disease (PD). Dual-task performance is driven by cognitive processes involving …

Falls in people with Parkinson's disease (PD) are frequent and recurrent events with
devastating and widespread consequences. Despite this, understanding of the predictive …

Gait impairments are a hallmark of Parkinson's disease (PD), both as early symptom and an
important cause of disability later in the disease course. Although levodopa has been shown …

Falls are a major cause of morbidity in Parkinson's disease (PD). The objective of this study
was to identify predictors of falls in PD and develop a simple prediction tool that would be …

Although simple assessments of gait speed have been shown to predict falls as well as
hospitalisation, functional decline and mortality in older people, dual task gait speed …
