TLDR
This study investigated anticipatory postural adjustments and spatiotemporal characteristics of gait initiation in persons with Essential Tremor and compared them to persons with Parkinson's disease as well as age-matched neurologically healthy adults and provided further evidence differentiating motor control features in these movement disorders.

Classification of Parkinson's Disease Gait Using Spatial-Temporal Gait Features

TL;DR: The multiple regression normalization approach will assist in diagnosis and treatment of Parkinson's disease using spatial-temporal gait data.

Machine Learning for the Diagnosis of Parkinson's Disease: A Review of Literature.

TL;DR: A comprehensive overview of data modalities and machine learning methods that have been used in the diagnosis and differential diagnosis of Parkinson's disease is provided in this paper, where a literature review of studies published until February 14, 2020, using the PubMed and IEEE Xplore databases.

Contribution of the supplementary motor area and the cerebellum to the anticipatory postural adjustments and execution phases of human gait initiation.

TL;DR: The results suggest that the SMA contributes to both the timing and amplitude of theAPAs with no influence on step execution and the posterior cerebellum in the coupling between the APAs and execution phases and leg muscle activity pattern during gait initiation.

Prehension synergies and hand function in early-stage Parkinson's disease

TL;DR: The results are interpreted as pointing at an important role of subcortical structures in motor synergies and their feed-forward adjustments to action in patients with early-stage Parkinson’s disease and healthy controls.

Accuracy of clinical diagnosis of idiopathic Parkinson's disease: a clinico-pathological study of 100 cases.

TL;DR: The pathological findings in 100 patients diagnosed prospectively by a group of consultant neurologists as having idiopathic Parkinson's disease are reported, and these observations call into question current concepts of Parkinson's Disease as a single distinct morbid entity.

Diagnostic Criteria for Parkinson Disease

TL;DR: A clinical diagnostic classification based on a comprehensive review of the literature regarding the sensitivity and specificity of the characteristic clinical features of PD is proposed: Definite, Probable, and Possible.

Neuropathological changes in essential tremor: 33 cases compared with 21 controls

TL;DR: Several trends were observed in ET cases without Lewy bodies, including a younger age of onset of tremor and higher proportions with gait difficulty and family history of ET, and the pathological changes of ET seem to be heterogeneous and degenerative.

Trajectory of the body COG and COP during initiation and termination of gait

TL;DR: Five initiation and five termination plus three steady-state walking trials were collected for each of four subjects using three videos cameras and three force platforms to analyse the interaction between the centre of mass (COM) and centre of pressure (COP).
Journal ArticleDOI

The initiation of gait in young, elderly, and Parkinson's disease subjects.

TL;DR: The results showed a progressive slowing from the young to the elderly to the PD subjects and there does not appear to be a relationship between the PD subject's steady-state velocity and their age, number of years diagnosed,number of hours off medication, or the rating on the Hoehn and Yahr scale.
