Despite these activities are performed daily, there is a high requirement of motor and neural systems in order to perform both tasks efficiently. Both walking and posture require a complex interaction of musculoskeletal and neural systems. However, the mechanisms used to control these tasks, as well as how they are planned and coordinated, are still a question of discussion among health professionals and researchers. In addition, this discussion is more interesting when the effects of aging are included in the context of locomotion and the postural control. The number of older individuals is 841 million in 2015, which is four times higher than the 202 million that lived in 1950. Aging causes many motor, sensorial and neural deficits, which impair locomotion and postural control in the elderly. The severity of this framework is worsened when the aging goes along with a movement disorder, such as Parkinson disease, Chorea, Dystonia, Huntington disease, etc. .Therefore, the aim of this book is to highligh | 出版日期 | Book 20171st edition | 关键词 | Motor control; Movement disorders; Aging; Rehabilitation; Elderly; Movement; Gait; Parkinson; rehabilitation | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-319-48980-3 | isbn_softcover | 978-3-319-84060-4 | isbn_ebook | 978-3-319-48980-3 | copyright | Springer International Publishing AG 2017 |
