Gait phenotype from mild cognitive impairment to moderate dementia: results from the GOOD initiative

The differences in gait abnormalities from the earliest to the later stages of dementia and in the different subtypes of dementia have not been fully examined. This study aims to compare spatiotemporal gait parameters in cognitively healthy individuals, patients with amnestic mild cognitive impairment (MCI) and non‐amnestic MCI, and patients with mild and moderate stages of Alzheimers disease (AD) and non‐Alzheimers disease (non‐AD).

Times are changing; researchers need to change too.
