Sex-related longitudinal change of motor features and biological biomarkers in early Parkinson’s disease from the PPMI cohort
Objective: We aim to describe sex-related longitudinal changes in (1) motor features and motor aspects of experiences of daily living and (2) biologic measures as…A reliable measure of rigidity with a novel robotic device
Objective: The objective of our study was to objectively measure the rigidity in PD patients, using a recently validated robotic device. Background: Rigidity is one…Application of PKG System for Objective Measurement and Early Identification in Parkinson’s Disease
Objective: This study aimed to assess the correlations of the PKG data with clinical scores of bradykinesia, rigidity and tremor. Background: The treatment of levodopa…Intracranial Tuberculous Abcess with Acute Parkinsonism: Unusual Finding
Objective: A case report of central nervous system (CNS) tuberculosis infection with acute parkinsonism. Background: Neurotuberculosis is a recognized clinical entity which can present with…Objective Measurement of Muscle Mechanical Properties using a Myometric Device in People with Parkinson’s Disease in a Clinical Setting in Africa
Objective: To examine the feasibility and reliability of using a myometric device to objectively measure mechanical properties of muscles in people with Parkinson’s disease in…The Feasibility of Using of the Non-Medication in the Treatment of Post-Stroke Vascular Parkinsonism
Objective: Vascular parkinsonism is an infrequent but unpleasant complication of cerebrovascular disease, in particular brain stroke. Background: The effect of the complex treatment with non-medication…The effectiveness of two-weeks self-stretch based on post-isometric relaxation in Parkinson’s disease patients
Objective: To estimate the influence of two weeks of PIR training performed by inpatients autonomously on their joints mobility and balance. Background: One of the…Stiff Limb Syndrome Progressing to Stiff Man Syndrome in a non-diabetic man
Objective: Stiff person syndrome is a rare CNS disorder characterized by fluctuating muscle rigidity of truncal and proximal limb muscles with superimposed painful spasms. Involved…Identifying In-Clinic Wearable Sensor Features that Predict Parkinson’s Disease Severity
Objective: To identify features from wearable sensors that can predict disease severity as measured by the MDS-UPDRS. Background: Wearable sensors can provide quantitative assessments of…Monitoring Parkinson’s disease symptoms during daily life: A feasibility study
Objective: This study explores the feasibility of a newly developed multimodal monitoring system, which aims to measure PD symptoms during daily life by combining wearable…
