This study looks at how memory problems and walking/mobility are connected. It may help researchers understand better ways to assess dementia risk and mobility changes early.
This study looks at how your walking (gait) might help predict future dementia and risk of falls. You may be asked to walk tests and have health information collected to see who is at higher risk.
This study compares treadmill walking to walking while doing a second task (like talking or carrying something) in people with Alzheimer's disease. It aims to see which training method improves mobility and safety better.
This trial tests a new program called Sense4Safety to help prevent falls and keep seniors living independently. It uses a simple physical test and a memory screening to see if you're eligible.
This study tests a new walking test for healthy adults over 65. It checks balance and movement by walking in a figure-eight pattern backward.
This study uses a walking test to measure mobility in older adults who have balance problems or have fallen recently. It aims to see how well the test works for this group.
