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.

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 ...

Neural Correlates of Single- and Dual-Task Walking in the Real World [PDF]

Frontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2017
Recent developments in mobile brain-body imaging (MoBI) technologies have enabled studies of human locomotion where subjects are able to move freely in more ecologically valid scenarios. In this study, MoBI was employed to describe the behavioral and neurophysiological aspects of three different commonly occurring walking conditions in healthy adults ...

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.

An fNIRS Investigation of Discrete and Continuous Cognitive Demands During Dual-Task Walking in Young Adults

Frontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2021
Introduction: Dual-task studies have demonstrated that walking is attention-demanding for younger adults. However, numerous studies have attributed this to task type rather than the amount of required to accomplish the task.

Cognitive-motor interference during walking with modified leg mechanics: a dual-task walking study. [PDF]

Front Psychol
BackgroundThe use of mobile exoskeletons as assistive walking devices has the potential to affect the biomechanics of the musculoskeletal system due to their weight and restricted range of motion. This may result in physical and cognitive load for the user.

The Effect of Different Types of Walking on Dual-Task Performance and Task Prioritization among Community-Dwelling Older Adults

The Scientific World Journal, 2014
Background. The ability to safely conduct different types of walking concurrently with a cognitive task (i.e., dual task) is crucial for daily life. The contribution of different walking types to dual-task performance has not yet been determined, nor is ...

Dual-Task Performance in Older Adults With and Without Idiopathic Normal Pressure Hydrocephalus

Frontiers in Aging Neuroscience, 2022
Two of the main features of idiopathic normal pressure hydrocephalus (iNPH) are disturbed gait and cognition. These features are typically investigated separately, but here we combined walking with a cognitive task to investigate if older adults with ...
