Abstract

Gait and mobility are cardinal to maintain autonomy and independency in daily life, also for older persons. Changes in these functions might be critical in the transition towards disability and loss of autonomy during the aging process. The aim of the present work, which collects three years of research conducted between Italy and the United States, was to assess some of the main risk factors for the progressive impairment of mobility and gait in older adults living in the community. According to our results, abnormalities in the nervous and cardiovascular systems, even subtle, are associated with a subsequent worsening of these functions. These data might help to better understand the progressive development of disability in the elderly, and in the future might also have practical implications for prevention.

Abstract

In this book the author has tried to present the subjects of Old Age and Death from as many viewpoints as possible in order to show how the ignorant and the learned, the child, the adult, and the old, savage and civilized man, pagans and Christians, the ancient and the modern world, the representatives of various sciences, and different individuals have viewed these problems. He has also tried to develop an idea of death and old age that is true to the facts of life and mind than those now current. Some of the overall topics discussed in this book include: the history of old age, literature by and on the aged, statistics of old age and its care, medical views and treatment, and so forth. It is hoped that the data garnered and the views propounded in this text may help to a better and more correct understanding of the nature and functions of old age.
