NCT ID NCT07137403
First seen May 01, 2026 · Last updated May 01, 2026
Summary
This study looks at why many older adults develop a slow, unsteady walk that raises their risk of falls and death. Researchers think this may be an early sign of a treatable brain condition called Normal Pressure Hydrocephalus. By studying 450 people over six years, they hope to find better ways to diagnose and help those affected.
