Motor-cognitive dual-task deficits in individuals with early-mid stage Huntington's disease [PDF]

, 2016
Background. Huntington’s disease (HD) results in a range of cognitive and motor impairments that progress throughout the disease stages; however, little research has evaluated specific dual-task abilities in this population, and the degree to which they ...

Balancing the demands of two tasks: an investigation of cognitive–motor dual-tasking in relapsing remitting multiple sclerosis [PDF]

, 2017
Background: People with relapsing remitting multiple sclerosis (PwRRMS) suffer disproportionate decrements in gait under dual-task conditions, when walking and a cognitive task are combined.

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 ...

Effects of age, sex, frailty and falls on cognitive and motor performance during dual-task walking in older adults

Experimental Gerontology, 2023
Background: Dual-task (DT) walking is of great interest in clinical evaluation to evaluate the risk of falling or cognitive declines in older adults. However, it appears necessary to investigate deeply the confounding factors to better understand their ...

The effect of dual tasking on foot biomechanics in people with functional ankle instability [PDF]

, 2016
Background: Some cases of repeated inversion ankle sprains are thought to have a neurological basis and are termed functional ankle instability (FAI). In addition to factors local to the ankle, such as loss of proprioception, cognitive demands have the ...

Cognitive and motor dual task gait training exerted specific training effects on dual task gait performance in individuals with Parkinson's disease: A randomized controlled pilot study.

PLoS ONE, 2019
Gait impairments in Parkinson's disease (PD) are aggravated under dual task conditions. Providing effective training to enhance different dual task gait performance is important for PD rehabilitation.

The effect of a cognitive or motor task on the gait parameters of those with diabetes, with and without neuropathy [PDF]

, 2009
Aims: To compare the gait parameters of older people with diabetes (DM) and people with diabetes and diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN) and to investigate the effect of a secondary motor or cognitive task on their gait.

Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation May Reduce Prefrontal Recruitment During Dual Task Walking in Functionally Limited Older Adults – A Pilot Study

Frontiers in Aging Neuroscience, 2022
IntroductionTranscranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) targeting the left dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (dlPFC) improves dual task walking in older adults, when tested just after stimulation.
