Medical, Sensorimotor and Cognitive Factors Associated With Gait Variability: A Longitudinal Population-Based Study

Background: Greater gait variability increases the risk of falls. However, little is known about changes in gait variability in older age. The aims of this study were to examine: (1) change in gait variability across time and (2) factors that predict overall mean gait variability and its change over...
