Experimental Group vs. Treadmill Walk |
Each intervention was performed for 1 hour, twice a week for 6 weeks for both groups. |
OptoGait (Speed – m/s; stride length – cm; and cadence – steps/min.) |
| Age (years) = 56.53 (±9.52) |
Experimental Group: Treadmill training in conjunction with cognitive tasks, with mental tracking, verbal fluency, etc. Followed by simple exercises. |
| Chronic |
Control Group: Treadmill gait training, no additional tasks (dual task), and performs the same cognitive tasks of the EG off the treadmill. |
| Average speed = 0.38 (±0.16) |

Experimental Group vs. Treadmill Walk |
There were 20 biweekly sessions for 10 weeks, with 30 minutes in aerobic training intensity (55-85% of max HR). |
2-minute walk test (m) |
| Age (years) = 61.55 (±15.19) |
Experimental Group = Dual-task treadmill training = distractions with cognitive and verbal tasks, for 10 minutes in each task. |
| Chronic |

Experimental Group vs. Single-Task Group vs. Control Group |
Experimental Group = Dual-task training (exercises with mobility/balance and cognitive tasks) for 30 min + 30 min of flexibility exercises. |
Activities-specific balance confidence (ABC) scale |
| Age (years) = 61.2 (±6.4) |
Control Group = Same mobility and balance training as the EG, but without cognitive tasks for 30 min. Subsequently, the same cognitive activities as the EG, however, sitting. |
| Chronic |
Control Group = Only flexibility exercises for all limbs and strengthening for upper limbs. |
| Average speed = 21.66 |
