Implementation of a mobile application in the Luxembourg Parkinson’s study for identification and validation of disease stage and variation
Objective: The project focuses on integrating a mobile application (mPower) into the Luxembourg Parkinson's cohort (HELP-PD) to monitor frequency and degree of variation in symptoms…A novel causal mutation for spinocerebellar ataxia 19/22 (SCA19)
Objective: We report a novel cause for SCA19. We obtained longitudinal exam data on the index case, and data on other family members. We conducted…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.…Comparison of effect of variable deep brain stimulation (DBS) frequencies on gait and balance in Parkinson’s disease (PD) patients with either bilateral GPi or STN stimulators employing wearable wireless sensors
Objective: To compare the effect of variable Deep brain Stimulation (DBS) frequencies on gait and balance in Parkinson's disease (PD) patients with either bilateral GPi…Quantifying turning behavior in Parkinson’s disease patients using mobile technology
Objective: To use inertial measurement unit (IMU) data from a mobile device, iPad or iPhone, to quantify PD patients' gait and turning behavior, on and…Specific in-patient’s rehabilitation improves postural and gait instability in Huntington’s disease
Objective: To evaluate long-term effects of targeted rehabilitation on postural and gait stability in the early and middle stages of Huntington disease (HD). Background: HD…Clinical and instrumental gait analysis study of fear of falling in Parkinson’s disease patients
Objective: Our aim is to analyze the fear of falling in patients with PD through both clinical variables and instrumented analysis of movement and gait.…Assessment of freezing of gait in Parkinson’s disease patients treated with STN-DBS
Objective: To evaluate FOG in patients with PD treated with STN-DBS and to compare sensitivity of different assessments of FOG in this specific group of…Analysis of temporal gait features extracted from accelerometer-based signals during ambulatory walking in Parkinson’s disease
Objective: To perform a proof-of-concept study showing the utility of versatile algorithms aimed at objectively quantifying the duration of refined gait features during ambulatory walking…Altered brain activation in complex walking conditions in patients with Parkinson’s disease
Objective: To investigate (1) the differences in neural activation during complex walking that possesses different cognitive demands and (2) the influence of neurodegenerative disease as…
