Background—Patients with severe chronic heart failure seem to take shorter steps than healthy controls when walking on a treadmill and when walking freely along a corridor. In healthy individuals the pattern of walking affects the oxygen cost of exercise, and so this observation might be relevant...

An isolated effect of the disease was observed with p < 0.01 for cadence (steps/s) and p < 0.0001 for regularity index and the correlation values of these parameters with CS, RD, and R were all high and significant (Table 2). However, although the correlation values were similar ...
It saddens me and gladdens me, the gait with which we are leaving San Francisco behind and with which we are foaming down upon the tropics. View in context She was practicing steps, gaits and attitudes, apparently; she was doing the thing gracefully, and was very much absorbed in her wo...

The faster rate of improvement during REAL concurs with the larger and more substantial pre-post changes in short- and long-distance walking function improvements. The performance equation curves generated from the trial data may assist with the design of future dose-response studies. Indeed, the ...
