Who this trial is looking for
This trial is looking for older adults who have experienced a stroke more than six months ago. Participants will help researchers understand how thinking skills affect walking abilities after a stroke.
Are You a Good Fit for This Trial?
You may be able to join if
- I have had a stroke more than 6 months ago.
- I have weakness on one side of my body.
- I can walk for 5 minutes without stopping.
- I am willing to complete study procedures.
You may not be able to join if
- I have a stroke in the brainstem or cerebellum.
- I have problems with speaking or understanding language.
- I have a major health issue that affects my movement or thinking.
- I have metal in my head (except in my mouth) or medical devices that are not safe for MRI.
- I have high blood pressure not controlled by medication.
- I am currently receiving physical therapy.
- I have difficulty being in tight spaces.
- I have significant memory problems or dementia.

About This Trial
This project seeks to determine how post-stroke cognitive impairment moderates motor learning during walking in older adults with chronic stroke and identify brain structural markers that mediate this relationship. The chosen experimental design integrates biomechanical analyses, neuropsychological assessments, and brain imaging techniques to determine the impact of post-stroke cognitive impairmen…
