This resource is a video abstract of a research paper created by Research Square on behalf of its authors. It provides a synopsis that's easy to understand, and can be used to introduce the topics it covers to students, researchers, and the general public. The video's transcript is also provided in full, with a portion provided below for preview:

"Falls are a major public health threat among older adults Exercise interventions are one of the most effective ways to prevent falls in the community But these interventions depend on early identification of those at high risk for falling One useful tool physiotherapists can use to spot vulnerable individuals is gait speed A gait speed under 1.0 m/sec has been well correlated with an increased fall risk in the elderly Now, researchers have shown that using a gait-speed cut-off of 1.0 m/sec captures several other modifiable risk factors for falls including a multiple-fall history, depressive symptoms, and a high number of medications The results support gait speed assessment as an interdisciplinary single test to identify individuals who would benefit from guided fall-preventive exercise Kyrdalen, et al. Associations between gait speed and well-known fall-risk factors amongst community-dwelling older adults..."

Is sleep for rest? To conserve energy? For development? To cool the brain? To warm it? To boost the immune system? To learn and memorize? Or to unlearn, ridding our brains of excess mental baggage? All of these ideas have been proposed, leading to the suggestion that insomniacs might do better to count sleep theories instead of sheep. Join renowned neuroscientist Ralph Greenspan of The Neurosciences Institute to explore the latest research into the question of why we sleep. (59 minutes)
