Study Summary

Rapidly accumulating evidence indicates that the central nervous system (CNS) plays a pivotal role in mobility function with age-associated CNS changes strongly contributing to declining mobility. Studies linking the brain to mobility have used anatomical measures like brain volume and white matter integrity, and suggest that damage to the connecting fibers of the brain (white matter) is related to mobility impairment. Unfortunately, age-related structural white matter damage appears irreversible and only indirectly indicates the functional connectivity between brain regions. It is believed that functional brain network analyses have the potential to identify individuals that may benefit from interventions prior to the development of irreversible white matter lesions. The current project will assess both physical and cognitive function and integrate these variables with measures of brain network connectivity.

Primary Outcome

The expanded Short Physical Performance Battery (eSPPB) is a modified version of a widely used assessment of lower extremity physical function that consists of 3 standing balance tasks held for 10 seconds each (side-by-side, tandem and semi-tandem), two 4-m walk tests to assess usual gait speed, and 5 repeated chair stands. To minimize ceiling effects and maximize overall dispersion of test scores, the eSPPB increases the holding time of the semi- and full-tandem stands to 30 seconds and adds a
