Shared neural substrates of cognitive function and postural control in older adults

Introduction Poor cognitive function and postural control co‐occur in older adults. It is unclear whether they share neural substrates. Methods Postural sway error during a novel visual tracking (VT) condition and gray matter volume (GMV) were compared between participants with normal cognition (NC), mild cognitive impairment (MCI), or dementia (n = 179, mean age 82, 56% females, 56% white). Associations between VT error, cognitive function, and...
