Inflammatory markers and gait speed decline in older adults.
BACKGROUND Increased inflammatory activity and gait speed decline are common with aging, but the association between the two is not well established. The objective of this study was to determine the influence of inflammatory markers, interleukin-6 (IL-6), and tumor necrosis factor alpha, on gait speed performance and decline in older adults. METHODS We conducted cross-sectional and longitudin...
متن کاملConcurrent Validity of Functional Gait Assessment, Timed Up and Go, and Gait Speed Tests in the Persian Community-Dwelling Elderly
Objectives: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the concurrent validity of the Farsi version of Functional Gait Assessment (FGA), Timed Up & Go (TUG), and Gait Speed tests in Persian communitydwelling older adults.

متن کاملGait Speed Predicts Incident Disability: A Pooled Analysis.
BACKGROUND Functional independence with aging is an important goal for individuals and society. Simple prognostic indicators can inform health promotion and care planning, but evidence is limited by heterogeneity in measures of function. METHODS We performed a pooled analysis of data from seven studies of 27,220 community-dwelling older adults aged 65 or older with baseline gait speed, follow...
متن کاملGait speed and survival in older adults.
CONTEXT Survival estimates help individualize goals of care for geriatric patients, but life tables fail to account for the great variability in survival. Physical performance measures, such as gait speed, might help account for variability, allowing clinicians to make more individualized estimates. OBJECTIVE To evaluate the relationship between gait speed and survival. DESIGN, SETTING, AND...
متن کاملSpeed Invariance vs. Stability: Cross-Speed Gait Recognition Using Single-Support Gait Energy Image
Gait recognition has recently attracted much attention since it can identify person at a distance without subject cooperation. Walking speed changes, however, cause gait changes in appearance, which significantly drops performance of gait recognition. Considering a speedinvariant property at single-support phases where stride change due to speed changes are mitigated, and a stability against ph...
