DOI: 10.1093/ageing/afz164.84
Abstract: Frailty indicators were proposed to be significant predictors of falls. However, their comparative and additional value to other simple fall predictors has not been evaluated. This study aims to compare the clinical value of three… read more here.

DOI: 10.3389/fnagi.2018.00078
Abstract: Background: Parkinson’s disease (PD) is a neurodegenerative movement disorder associated with gait and balance problems and a substantially increased risk of falling. Falls occur often during complex movements, such as turns. Both fear of falling… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/ijerph15050982
Abstract: Background: Although fear of falling (FOF) has been studied since FOF has negative consequences for the elderly, there is limited information about the risk factors of FOF, including the environment. The purpose of this study… read more here.
