Summary

This study looks at whether the Figure-of-8 Walk Test is a valid and reliable way to measure walking and balance in older adults with motoric cognitive risk syndrome (MCRS). MCRS combines slow walking speed with memory complaints and may signal future dementia. Researchers will test 52 volunteers aged 65+ using non-invasive walking tasks. No treatments are given—the goal is to see if this simple test can help doctors assess risk more accurately.
