Kinetic Sensors for Ambulatory Gait and Balance Evaluation in Parkinson’s Disease
Objective: To explore the applicability of an ambulatory inertial sensor (G-walk) to characterize gait function during the Timed Up and Go (TUG) Test. Background: In…Slow-Motion Analysis of Repetitive Tapping (SMART): a pilot study of a new measurement of bradykinesia
Objective: To assess repetitive tapping movements (RTM) using a slow motion camera and compare them with a clinician visual impression in people that have been…An explorative study on the value of clinical features for diagnosing Parkinson’s disease
Objective: To investigate the usefulness of clinical features to differentiate subjects with “scans without evidence of dopaminergic deficit” (SWEDD) from patients presumed to have Parkinson’s…Accelerometer-Based Gait Analysis for Patients with Parkinson’s Disease
Objective: The study is to develop an accelerometer-based gait analysis for the patients with Parkinson’s disease, which would provide timely complete gait information following the…Relationship between daily physical activity measured by a triaxial accelerometer and motor symptoms in patients with Parkinson’s disease
Objective: The aim of the present study was to perform quantitative assessments of daily physical activity using a triaxial accelerometer (MIMAMORI-Gait) and determine the associations…Stability and reliability of objective measures of speech in Parkinson’s Disease over 12 months
Objective: To describe the stability and reliability of acoustic measures of speech in Parkinson’s Disease (PD) at 3 and 12 months. Background: Speech biomarkers hold…Adult-onset stereotypy — An atypical presentation of frontotemporal dementia
Objective: Describe a case of adult-onset stereotypy with abulia. Background: Stereotypy is a non-goal directed but distractible behavior repeated continuously. While common in the pediatric…Re-emergent tremor provocation
Objective: to evaluate the effect of tremor provocation on re-emergent tremor latency and variability. Background: Rest and re-emergent tremor (RET) in Parkinson’s disease (PD) are…Clinimetric properties of direct contemporaneous FOG score rating
Objective: To determine the clinimetric properties of the direct rating of the Freezing of Gait (FOG) score compared to the off-line rating from video recordings.…Electroconvulsive Therapy (ECT): An Effective Option for the Treatment of Medication-Resistant Psychiatric Symptoms in Huntington’s Disease: A Case Series and Review of the Literature
Objective: Through a single site case series, we investigate the use and effectiveness of electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) for the treatment of refractory psychiatric symptoms in…
