Perceived cognitive workload & time to do a sustained visual attention task were ⬆️ in those with lasting symptoms after mild TBI. Perceived cognitive workload was linked to symptom severity & mental fatigue & could be a marker of ongoing issues & a rehab target.

Authors found gait responses to internal & external cues were similar across #Parkinsons disease stages. Certain cues improved specific gait features, & cues could be personalized based on deficits. Multiple brain regions may contribute to gait responses to cues.
