From the registry

The purpose of the study is to investigate the influence of walking with external visual cues on brain adaptations.

Primary outcomes

  • Fractal scaling exponent (α) changes from baseline (PRE to POS, PRE to FUP, POS to FUP) both within and between Fractal and Isochronous groups.
  • Cortical silent period (SP) changes from baseline (PRE to POS, PRE to FUP, POS to FUP) both within and between Fractal and Isochronous groups.
  • Short-Interval Intracortical Inhibition (SICI) changes from baseline (PRE to POS, PRE to FUP, POS to FUP) both within and between Fractal and Isochronous groups.
  • Corticospinal excitability (CSE) changes from baseline (PRE to POS, PRE to FUP, POS to FUP) both within and between Fractal and Isochronous groups.
