Usual and dual-task gait adaptations under visual stimulation in older adults at different ages

Paola Errera Magnani et al.

Summary: This study aimed to evaluate gait strategies in older adults in various situations and found that visual stimuli have an impact on gait parameters. The results indicated that visual stimulation can increase gait speed, with older adults in different age groups using different strategies to increase their gait speed.

Exercise effects on backward walking speed in people with dementia: A randomized controlled trial

Annika Toots et al.

Summary: This study found that high-intensity functional exercise did not have an overall effect on backward walking speed in older dementia patients, but showed benefits for participants who habitually did not use walking aids.

Risk-of-falling related outcomes improved in community-dwelling older adults after a 6-week sideways walking intervention: a feasibility and pilot study

Andreas Skiadopoulos et al.

Summary: This pilot study confirmed the feasibility of sideways walking as an exercise intervention to improve risk-of-falling outcomes in community-dwelling older adults. Most potential participants were initially reluctant to commit to a 6-week intervention, but the desired recruitment rate was achieved after revising the recruitment strategy. Remaining participants demonstrated good adherence to the protocol and showed improvement on most outcomes, with effects sustained at follow-up.

A mobile app to transparently distinguish single- from dual-task walking for the ecological monitoring of age-related changes in daily-life gait

Francesca Lunardini et al.

Summary: The study tested a system on older adults, finding that talking while walking led to changes in gait, with more pronounced effects under dual-task conditions. The system showed good reliability and usability.

How COVID-19 lockdown and reopening affected daily steps: evidence based on 164,630 person-days of prospectively collected data from Shanghai, China

Ding Ding et al.

Summary: The COVID-19 lockdown in China led to a sharp decline in daily step counts, followed by a gradual recovery but not to pre-lockdown levels. Older, married individuals with lower education levels and 'at risk' body composition tended to have slower recovery in step counts.

Reliability of walking speed in basic and complex conditions in healthy, older community-dwelling individuals

Roberta Forte et al.

Summary: Complex walking speed tests showed good and moderate intra- and inter-session reliability in healthy older individuals. These tests appear to be a more suitable tool for assessing functional abilities in healthy older subjects compared to simple walking. There may be a learning effect present, and further reliability studies are necessary.
