Abstract

: Gait is a fundamental human behavior essential for individual autonomy and well-being; it reflects a complex inter-joint coordination that can change with aging. : This study applied a network-based fingerprinting approach to evaluate the stability and individuality of gait coordination in adults (mean age: 41.6) and older adults (mean age: 73.5). Each participant completed two gait recordings, from which we constructed kinematic networks (i.e., kinectome) representing joint-velocity correlations. Then, borrowing from network fingerprinting techniques, we computed measures of intra-subject similarity (Iself), inter-subject similarity within the same group (Iothers), cross-group similarity (Iextra), and individual discriminability (Differentiation rate, DR). : While Iself was comparable across groups, older adults showed higher Iothers and lower DR, indicating more homogeneous and less distinctive coordination patterns. Furthermore, Iothers was significantly higher than Iextra in the older group only, suggesting age-specific convergence in motor behavior. : These findings support the hypothesis that aging reduces the individuality of gait coordination, possibly due to adaptive or degenerative changes in motor control. Kinectome-based fingerprinting thus offers a promising tool for capturing subtle shifts in neuromotor organizations linked to aging.

摘要

步态是人类的一种基本行为,对个人自主性和幸福感至关重要;它反映了一种复杂的关节间协调,这种协调会随着年龄增长而变化。本研究应用基于网络的指纹识别方法来评估成年人(平均年龄:41.6岁)和老年人(平均年龄:73.5岁)步态协调的稳定性和个体性。每位参与者完成两次步态记录,我们据此构建了代表关节速度相关性的运动学网络(即运动连接组)。然后,借鉴网络指纹识别技术,我们计算了受试者内相似度(Iself)、同组受试者间相似度(Iothers)、跨组相似度(Iextra)和个体可辨别性(区分率,DR)的指标。虽然Iself在各组之间具有可比性,但老年人的Iothers较高,DR较低,这表明他们的协调模式更加同质化且独特性较低。此外,只有老年组的Iothers显著高于Iextra,这表明运动行为存在特定年龄的趋同现象。这些发现支持了以下假设:衰老会降低步态协调的个体性,这可能是由于运动控制的适应性或退行性变化所致。因此,基于运动连接组的指纹识别为捕捉与衰老相关的神经运动组织的细微变化提供了一种很有前景的工具。
