StartReact effects support different pathophysiological mechanisms underlying freezing of gait and postural instability in Parkinson's disease. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2015 The pathophysiology underlying postural instability in Parkinson's disease is poorly understood. The frequent co-existence with freezing of gait raises the possibility of shared pathophysiology.
