Associations of the short FES-I and 5CWT with the number of falls. The bold line and the dashed line represent the score of the short FES-I and the 5-m Comfortable Pace Walking Time (5CWT), respectively. On Poisson regression analysis adjusted for all potential confounding factors, the short FES-I score increases significantly according to the increase in the number of falls (RR = 1.09, p = 0.015). On the other hand, 5CWT is not significantly associated with the number of falls (RR = 1.55, p = 0.055)
