Neuromuscular Control before and after Independent Walking Onset in Children with Cerebral Palsy

Sensors, 2021
Early brain lesions which produce cerebral palsy (CP) may affect the development of walking. It is unclear whether or how neuromuscular control, as evaluated by muscle synergy analysis, differs in young children with CP compared to typically developing ...

The Effects of Intensive Neurorehabilitation on Sequence Effect in Parkinson's Disease Patients With and Without Freezing of Gait

Frontiers in Neurology, 2021
Background: The sequence effect (SE), defined as a reduction in amplitude of repetitive movements, is a common clinical feature of Parkinson's disease (PD) and is supposed to be a major contributor to freezing of gait (FOG).

Brain Structural and Functional Connectivity: A Review of Combined Works of Diffusion Magnetic Resonance Imaging and Electro-Encephalography

Frontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2021
Implications of structural connections within and between brain regions for their functional counterpart are timely points of discussion. White matter microstructural organization and functional activity can be assessed in unison.

How Cognition and Motivation “Freeze” the Motor Behavior in Parkinson’s Disease

Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2019
ObjectiveFreezing of gait (FoG) is a debilitating problem in patients with PD. The multifactorial pathogenesis of FoG remains poorly understood. We aimed to find which factors are most strongly associated with the occurrence of FoG.MethodsThree hundred ...
