Freezing of gait in people with Parkinson's disease (PwP) is associated with executive dysfunction and motor preparation deficits. We have recently shown that electrophysiological markers of motor preparation, rather than decision-making, …
A letter discussing the use of Current Source Density to analyse EEG data for people with Parkinson's Disease
Objective: Freezing of gait (FOG) is a brief, episodic phenomenon affecting over half of people with Parkinson’s disease (PD) and leads to significant morbidity. The pathophysiology of FOG remains poorly understood but is associated with deficits in …
Background; Sensory and perceptual disturbances are prominent in Parkinson’s PD and probably contribute to motor deficits such as bradykinesia and gait disturbances, including freezing of gait. Simple reaction time tests are a helpful way to explore …
Freezing of gait (FOG) is a common disabling gait disorder in late stage Parkinson's disease (PD), which can lead to falls and loss of independence. To date, the mechanisms causing FOG are still unknown and no treatment has proven to be effective. In …
