Using functional near-infrared spectroscopy to measure prefrontal cortex activity during dual-task walking and navigated walking: A feasibility study. [PDF]

Brain Behav, 2023
Introduction While functional near‐infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) can provide insight into motor‐cognitive deficits during ecologically valid gait conditions, the feasibility of using fNIRS during complex walking remains unknown. We tested the process and

A meta-analysis: Parkinson's disease and dual-task walking [PDF]

Parkinsonism & Related Disorders, 2019
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 the existing literature and quantify the overall influence of dual tasks on gait performance in PD.

Reliability and Validity of Dual-Task Mobility Assessments in People with Chronic Stroke. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2016
BACKGROUND:The ability to perform a cognitive task while walking simultaneously (dual-tasking) is important in real life. However, the psychometric properties of dual-task walking tests have not been well established in stroke.

Combining transcranial direct current stimulation with a motor-cognitive task: the impact on dual-task walking costs in older adults

Journal of NeuroEngineering and Rehabilitation, 2021
Background The performance of a secondary task while walking increases motor-cognitive interference and exacerbates fall risk in older adults. Previous studies have demonstrated that transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) may improve certain ...

Prefrontal activation during dual-task seated stepping and walking performed by subacute stroke patients with hemiplegia

Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2023
ObjectivesThis study examined prefrontal cortex (PFC) activation during dual-task seated stepping and walking performed by subacute stroke patients with hemiplegia and evaluated the relationship between PFC activation, frontal lobe functions, and dual ...

The Effect Of Visual Dual-Tasking Interference On Walking In Healthy Young Adults [PDF]

Gait & Posture, 2020
Visual dual-task skills are essential for stable ambulation in everyday life such as walking while reading text. Gait analysis in a virtual environment can provide insight into altered walking performance while visual dual-tasking.How visual dual-tasking including cognitive load of reading text and altered optical flow influences walking speed and ...

A study of eye movement during dual-task walking in elderly individuals. [PDF]

J Phys Ther Sci
[Purpose] Older adults are at higher risk of falling during dual-task walking; however, their eye movements during such time are unclear. Our previous studies measured eye movements during pseudo-walking (walking in place), with and without calculation tasks, to investigate the mechanisms of falls experienced by elderly individuals during dual-task ...

The Effects of Instructions on Dual-Task Walking and Cognitive Task Performance in People with Parkinson's Disease

Parkinson's Disease, 2012
Gait impairments are prevalent among people with Parkinson’s disease (PD). Instructions to focus on walking can improve walking in PD, but the use of such a cognitive strategy may be limited under dual-task walking conditions, when walking is performed ...

Alteration of brain dynamics during dual‐task overground walking

European Journal of Neuroscience, 2020
Abstract When walking in our natural environment, we often solve additional cognitive tasks. This increases the demand of resources needed for both the cognitive and motor systems, resulting in Cognitive‐Motor Interference (CMI). A large portion of neurophysiological investigations on CMI took place in static settings, emphasizing the
