Cerebral microbleeds and lacunar infarcts are associated with walking speed independent of cognitive performance in middle-aged to older adults
BACKGROUND: The positive relationship between cognitive and physical performance has been widely established. The influence of brain structure on both domains has been shown as well. OBJECTIVE: We studied whether the relationship between brain structure and physical performance is independent of cognitive performance. METHODS: This was a cross-sectional analysis of 297 middle-aged to older adults (mean age ± SD 65.4 ± 6.8 years). Memory function, executive function and physical performance measured by the Tandem Stance Test, Chair Stand Test, 4-meter walk and 25-meter walk were assessed. Magne... Mehr ...
