A sensor-based analysis of freezing of turning in bed: A new manifestation of nocturnal hypokinesia
Objective: To identify characteristics of freezing of turning in bed in PD patients using an axial inertial sensor (NIGHT-Recorder®) and synchronous video recording. Background: Freezing…Discriminating Essential and Dystonic Tremor using Video-based Time Series Analysis
Objective: Identify differences between ET and DT using video-based time series analysis of the fingertip. Background: Tremor types are classified based on clinical features and…The utility of single dose levodopa challenges in the management of Parkinson’s disease
Objective: To retrospectively review the clinical utility of single dose levodopa challenges in the management of Parkinson in a tertiary movement disorder clinic. Background: Acute…Speech biometrics can predict cerebellar dysfunction in multiple sclerosis
Objective: To objectively describe cerebellar mediated speech function using a multiparameter index that reflects pathology and quality of life in MS. Background: Cerebellar function plays…SLC20A2 mutation manifesting as very-late onset orofacial dyskinesia
Objective: We report two cases of genetically confirmed PFBC with a SLC20A2 mutation that presented with very-late onset orofacial dyskinesia. Background: Primary familial brain calcification…A tailored and multifactorial fall prevention program for people with Parkinson’s disease: a feasibility study
Objective: To determine the feasibility and acceptability of a fall prevention program for people with moderate to severe Parkinson’s disease (PD). Background: Evidence shows exercise…The Feasibility of Using of the Non-Medication in the Treatment of Post-Stroke Vascular Parkinsonism
Objective: Vascular parkinsonism is an infrequent but unpleasant complication of cerebrovascular disease, in particular brain stroke. Background: The effect of the complex treatment with non-medication…The Relationship Between Modified Four Square Step Test (mFSST) and Outcome Measures Related to Fall Risk and Quality of Life in Individuals with Parkinson’s Disease
Objective: Determine the relationship between the modified Four Square Step Test and outcome measures related to fall risk and quality of life in individuals with…Challenge Point Guide: Characterizing exercises performed in multilevel Parkinson-specific community exercise classes
Objective: To present a guide that characterizes the safest and most challenging motor and cognitive exercises performed in our multilevel Parkinson-specific community exercise classes using…Home validation of a smartphone-based tapping task to assess medication responsiveness in Parkinson’s disease
