“…Exercise training promotes spontaneous neural functional recovery and restores brain function in patients with cerebrovascular disease to accelerate the process of functional recovery [18], which would help accelerate the rehabilitation process.domestic and foreign research has proven the benefits of exercise therapy in patients with cerebral apoplexy [16,19]. Literature has also reported positive effects observed in patients with cerebral apoplexy after traditional Chinese exercise is used as a type of exercise therapy [8,[20][21][22].…”

“…Accordingly, falling is more common in elderly patients over 65 years old [7], and the fifth factor which caused of death in the elderly. About two-thirds of accidental deaths, which reached 70% in elderly patients aged 75 years old and above, are caused by falls [8]. According to the survey, at least 20 million of the elderly fall 20 million times a year in China, and more than CNY 5 billion and CNY 80 to 160 billion are spent in direct medical and social costs, respectively [9,10].…”

“…Physical activity interventions that have showed a reduction in falls are predominantly focused on increasing strength and balance (L. Clemson et al, 2012; Day et al, 2002; Hu et al, 2015; Kendrick et al, 2014; Lobo, 2012; Mangani et al, 2008). Only 11% of our participants took part in muscle-strengthening activities, and most participants had low physical function (n=760).…”

“…However, only a few studies have examined the combined effect of physical activity and physical function on the risk of falls (Hu, Xia, Jiang, Zhou, & Li, 2015; Ward et al, 2015). In a study of 3,043 community-dwelling women, Hu et.…”

“…Studies focusing on the elderly8 have shown that poor housing conditions are associated with a higher risk of falls,9 10 worse respiratory and mental health,11 12 and higher risk of disease-specific and all-cause mortality 13–16. However, less is known about the influence of housing conditions on functional status; specifically, no study has comprehensively examined its association with a wide variety of physical function limitations, both self-reported and objectively measured, in older adults 8.…”
