For cognitive processes to function well, it is essential that the brain is optimally supplied
with oxygen and blood. In recent years, evidence has emerged suggesting that cerebral …

Background Functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) is increasingly used in the field
of posture and gait to investigate patterns of cortical brain activation while people move …

An emerging body of literature has examined cortical activity during walking and balance
tasks in older adults and in people with Parkinson's disease, specifically using functional …

Background Declines in gait parameters are common with aging and more pronounced in
tasks with increased executive demand. However, the neural correlates of age-related gait …

This mini-review is aimed at briefly summarizing the present status of functional near-
infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) and predicting where the technique should go in the next …

Gait is complex, described by diverse characteristics underpinned by widespread central
nervous system networks including motor and cognitive functions. Despite this, neural …

Human gait is a complex activity that requires high coordination between the central nervous
system, the limb, and the musculoskeletal system. More research is needed to understand …

The aims of this systematic review were to investigate (1) real-time brain activity during DT
gait and balance,(2) whether changes in brain activity correlate with changes in behavioral …

The integrity of the frontal areas of the brain, specifically the prefrontal cortex, are critical to
preserve cognition and mobility in late life. Prefrontal cortex regions are involved in …

(1) Functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) provides a useful tool for monitoring brain
activation changes while walking in adults with neurological disorders. When combined with …
