Automated detection of missteps during community ambulation in patients with Parkinson’s disease: a new approach for quantifying fall risk in the community setting

TL;DR: An objective tool for detecting missteps under real-world, daily life conditions to enhance the evaluation of fall risk and applied this new method to 3 day continuous recordings, suggesting that this novel approach can be applied to detect missteps during daily life among patients with PD.
Journal ArticleDOI

When is Higher Level Cognitive Control Needed for Locomotor Tasks Among Patients with Parkinson's Disease?

TL;DR: Findings are the first to show that BA10 plays a different role during turning and walking and that ambulation status may alter BA10 activation during turning, and that higher prefrontalactivation during turning in the subgroup of patients with relatively worse ambulation may reflect a compensatory attempt at improving performance.
Journal ArticleDOI

Association of Sequence Alterations in the Putative Promoter of RAB7L1 With a Reduced Parkinson Disease Risk

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that specific SNP variations and haplotypes in the PARK16 locus are associated with reduced risk for PD in Ashkenazim and the role of other genes in this locus cannot be ruled out.
Journal ArticleDOI

An innovative training program based on virtual reality and treadmill: effects on gait of persons with multiple sclerosis.

TL;DR: The results support the perceived benefits of training programs that incorporate virtual reality to improve gait measures in individuals with multiple sclerosis and suggest treadmill training requiring obstacle negotiation increases the range of motion and the power generated at the hip, consequently allowing longer stride length and higher gait speed.
