Aging effects on prefrontal cortex oxygenation in a posture-cognition dual-task: an fNIRS pilot study

Abstract Background The aging process alters upright posture and locomotion control from an automatically processed to a more cortically controlled one. The present study investigated a postural-cognitive dual-task paradigm in young and older adults using functional Near-Infrared Spectroscopy (fNIRS...
