Association of Muscle Power With Functional Status in Community-Dwelling Elderly Women
Mona Foldvari,Maureen Clark,Lori C. Laviolette,Melissa A. Bernstein,David Kaliton,David Kaliton,Carmen Castaneda,Charles T. Pu,Jeffrey M. Hausdorff,Roger A. Fielding,Roger A. Fielding,Maria A. Fiatarone Singh,Maria A. Fiatarone Singh +12 more
TL;DR: Leg power is a strong predictor of self-reported functional status in elderly women and was related in univariate analyses to physiologic capacity, habitual physical activity level, neuropsychological status, and medical diagnoses.
Dynamic markers of altered gait rhythm in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis
Jeffrey M. Hausdorff,Apinya Lertratanakul,Merit Cudkowicz,Amie L. Peterson,David Kaliton,Ary L. Goldberger +5 more
TL;DR: It is found that the gait of patients with ALS is less steady and more temporally disorganized compared with that of healthy controls, and stride-to-stride control of gait rhythm is apparently compromised with ALS.

The Effects of Multidimensional Home-Based Exercise on Functional Performance in Elderly People
Miriam E. Nelson,Jennifer E. Layne,Melissa J. Bernstein,Andrea Nuernberger,Carmen Castaneda,David Kaliton,Jeffrey M. Hausdorff,James O. Judge,David M. Buchner,Ronenn Roubenoff,Maria A. Fiatarone Singh,Maria A. Fiatarone Singh +11 more
TL;DR: Minimally supervised exercise is safe and can improve functional performance in elderly individuals and improvements in functional performance occurred along with improvements in balance but without a significant change in muscle strength or endurance.

Etiology and modification of gait instability in older adults: a randomized controlled trial of exercise.
Jeffrey M. Hausdorff,Miriam E. Nelson,David Kaliton,Jennifer E. Layne,Melissa J. Bernstein,Andrea Nuernberger,Maria A. Fiatarone Singh,Maria A. Fiatarone Singh +7 more
TL;DR: Although the etiology of gait instability in older persons with mild-moderate functional impairment is multifactorial, interventions designed to reduce gait stability may be effective in bringing about a more consistent and more stable walking pattern.
