Attention to action: Common to both conversion (psychogenic) and Parkinsonian (neurogenic) motor speech disorders
Objective: To review and present a common abnormality --- attention to action--- underlying Parkinsonian and conversion speech disorders. Background: Conversion speech disorders are characterized by…Objective, unobtrusive assessment of bradykinesia in Parkinson’s disease
Objective: To evaluate unobtrusive motion tracking for objective assessment of bradykinesia of the upper extremity in Parkinson's disease (PD). Background: The MDS-UPDRS is the most…Comparative analysis of upper limb motor function and articulation disorder in Parkinson’s disease
Objective: To assess the relationship between upper limb bradykinesia and hypokinetic dysarthria in Parkinson's disease (PD) using instrumental investigations of speech and limb motor function.…Instrumented quantitative study of movement and gait in Parkinson’s disease clinical subtypes
Objective: Our aim is to further understand the distinctions of PD subtypes, tremor dominant (TD) and postural instability gait disorder (PIGD), using clinical variables and…Dopaminergic and non-dopaminergic effects on instrumented timed up and go test in patients with Parkinson’s disease
Objective: To evaluate an instrumented version of Timed Up and Go Test (iTUG) in patients with Parkinson's disease (PD), both in L-dopa OFF and ON-state.…Movement disorders in diabetes – Report of two cases
Objective: We would like to present two diabetic patients with rare motor symptomatology. Background: Diabetes may coexist with some movement disorders. There is increasing body…Blinded video assessment of subtle Parkinsonian signs in PREDICT-PD participants
Objective: To determine whether risk estimates calculated in PREDICT-PD are associated with objective motor features on clinical examination. Background: PREDICT-PD aims to identify a group…Balance in patients with newly diagnosed Parkinson´s disease – A three year follow-up of a cohort in Northern Sweden
Objective: The aim of this study was to examine balance, subjective experienced unsteadiness and self-reported falls among patients with idiopathic Parkinson´s Disease, at the very…Developmental movement patterns resemble movement disorder features in healthy babies and toddlers
Objective: In healthy children (0-3 years), we investigated the association between developmental motor patterns and movement disorder features. Background: The developing nervous system produces a…iPad-based preassessment questionnaires are feasible in a Parkinson’s service
Objective: To determine the feasibility of using a iPad-based preassessment app in a Parkinson's service. Background: Parkinson's patients have a core motor disorder, a host…
