Gait & Posture, 22(1), 40-45. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.gaitpost.2004.06.006Patients with peripheral neuropathy (PN) report greater difficulty walking on irregular surfaces with low light (IL) than on flat surfaces with regular lighting (FR). We tested the primary hypothesis that older PN patients would demonstrate greater s...
