abstract="Recently, Granacher et al. (2010) proposed an intergenerational approach to promoting balance and strength for fall prevention in children and elderly subjects together. Although this sounds like a stimulating idea, its effectiveness for fall prevention in both groups has yet to be demonstrated. Undoubtedly, fall prevention remains a big challenge to scientists and health professionals. The idea of implementing prevention programs on an intergenerational basis will probably have to undergo a complex and long-lasting evaluation process before a firm conclusion about its effectiveness can be made.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>",
