Primary outcomes

1

Analysis and comparison gait analysis in different types of dementia , pre dementia and elderly people

\- The studying of the existence and pattern of gait impairment in pre-dementia and dementia and Role and important gait in prediction of disease progression by * The new smart insole PODOSmart®, a new tool for gait analysis recording the gait through sensors in foot tabs for 60 seconds and analysing the data. * Advanced athactivity of daily living scale (AADLs). * Berg balance test (BBT) . Other tools for gait analysis: Dynamic gait index and Figure 8 walk test So, this will study the association between dual decline in gait and cognition with the risk of dementia. And studying of relationship between gait impairment and Cognitive decline in Dementic patients ,which the greater cognitive decline,the greater gait impairment.
