Demographic data (mean age (yrs) and SD, percent females, and median length of illness), and equilibrium scores (EQT) and falls on posturography, SOT condition 5, eyes closed with sway-referenced force platform motion. Mean equilibrium scores, standard deviations and ranges in parentheses. Median falls, ranges in parentheses. At time 4, Group 2 had 1 subject. The historical Brandt Daroff group is reported for comparison.
