This is a prospective multicenter observational study with annual follow-up assessments over 3 years. Gait is assessed by an inertial device (BTS G-WALK). G- WALK is an easy-to-use solution to obtain accurate, objective and quantitative spatial-temporal gait data. The device is a wireless system consisting of an inertial sensor composed by a triaxial accelerometer, a magnetic sensor, and a triaxial gyroscope that positioned on lumbar/ or sacral segments allows a functional gait analysis. Cognitive performance is evaluated with a neuropsychological battery designed to assess memory, executive /attention, and visuospatial domains.
