Loss of Neural Automaticity Contributes to Slower Walking in COPD Patients

Loss of Neural Automaticity Contributes to Slower Walking in COPD Patients

The physical impairments (e.g., slower walking speed) in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) have been attributed to peripheral characteristics (e.g., muscle atrophy). However, cognitive impairment may compromise motor control including walking automaticity. The objective of t...
