A Bespoke Kinect Stepping Exergame for Improving Physical and Cognitive Function in Older People: A Pilot Study.

TL;DR: The home-based Kinect step training program was safe and feasible for older people to undertake unsupervised at home and led to improvements in stepping, standing balance, gait speed, and mobility.
Journal ArticleDOI

Angiotensin System-Blocking Medications Are Associated with Fewer Falls over 12 Months in Community-Dwelling Older People

TL;DR: To investigate relationships between the use of cardiovascular medications, including angiotensin system–blocking medications (ASBMs), orthostatic hypotension (OH), fall risk, and falls in community‐dwelling older people, a large number of older people are surveyed.
Journal ArticleDOI

A Kinect and Inertial Sensor-Based System for the Self-Assessment of Fall Risk: A Home-Based Study in Older People

TL;DR: The findings demonstrate the feasibility of a sensor-based self-assessment for fall risk but also highlight that further work is necessary.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Impact of Peripheral Neuropathy and Cognitive Decrements on Gait in Older Adults With Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus

TL;DR: Gait was further affected by reduced cognitive function, irrespective of the presence of neuropathy, and gait parameters are affected in older adults with type 2 diabetes.
