The use of rhythmic auditory cueing to enhance gait performance in parkinsonian patients' is
an emerging area of interest. Different theories and underlying neurophysiological …

Inertial sensors play a pivotal role in indoor localization, which in turn lays the foundation for
pervasive personal applications. However, low-cost inertial sensors, as commonly found in …

Until recently, clinicians and researchers have performed gait assessments and cognitive
assessments separately when evaluating older adults, but increasing evidence from clinical …

Fractal structures are found in biomedical time series from a wide range of physiological
phenomena. The multifractal spectrum identifies the deviations in fractal structure within time …

Background Aging is often associated with changes in the musculoskeletal system,
peripheral and central nervous system. These age-related changes often result in mobility …

A detailed and quantitative gait analysis can provide evidence of various gait impairments in
elderly people. To provide an objective decision-making basis for gait analysis, simple …

Background This systematic review provides an overview of the literature deducing
information about brain activation during (1) imagined walking using MRI/fMRI or (2) during …

Overuse injuries are generally defined as a repetitive micro-trauma to tissue. Many
researchers have associated particular biomechanical parameters as an indicator of such …

Background. Gait is an important predictor of survival in older adults. Gait characteristics
