Inhibition, Executive Function, and Freezing of Gait [PDF]

Journal of Parkinson’s Disease, 2014
Background: Studies suggest that freezing of gait (FoG) in people with Parkinson's disease (PD) is associated with declines in executive function (EF). However, EF is multi-faceted, including three dissociable components: inhibiting prepotent responses, switching between task sets, and updating working memory.

Freezing during tapping tasks in patients with advanced Parkinson's disease and freezing of gait.

PLoS ONE, 2017
IntroductionParkinson's disease patients with freezing of gait also experience sudden motor blocks (freezing) during other repetitive motor tasks. We assessed the proportion of patients with advanced PD and freezing of gait who also displayed segmental ...

Anti-Gravity Treadmill Training for Freezing of Gait in Parkinson’s Disease

Brain Sciences, 2020
Background: Parkinson’s disease (PD) is a neurodegenerative disorder characterized by motor impairment. Freezing of gait, impaired mobility and falls are common problems in these patients.

Cycling for Freezing of Gait

New England Journal of Medicine, 2010
A 58-year-old man with Parkinson's disease presented with an incapacitating freezing of gait. Despite this, the patient's ability to ride a bicycle was remarkably preserved.

Scoring festination and gait freezing in people with Parkinson's: The freezing of gait severity tool‐revised

Physiotherapy Research International, 2023
AbstractBackground and PurposeTo improve existing clinical assessments for freezing of gait (FOG) severity, a new clinician‐rated tool which integrates the varied types of freezing (FOG Severity Tool‐Revised) was developed. This cross‐sectional study investigated its validity and reliability.MethodsPeople with Parkinson's disease who were able to ...

Does anxiety cause freezing of gait in Parkinson's disease? [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2014
Individuals with Parkinson's disease (PD) commonly experience freezing of gait under time constraints, in narrow spaces, and in the dark. One commonality between these different situations is that they may all provoke anxiety, yet anxiety has never been ...

Doorway‐provoked freezing of gait in Parkinson's disease [PDF]

Movement Disorders, 2011
AbstractFreezing of gait in Parkinson's disease can be difficult to study in the laboratory. Here we investigate the use of a variable‐width doorway to provoke freeze behavior together with new objective methods to measure it. With this approach we compare the effects of anti‐parkinsonian treatments (medications and deep‐brain stimulation of the ...

Using Motor Imagery to Access Alternative Attentional Strategies When Navigating Environmental Boundaries to Prevent Freezing of Gait – A Perspective

Frontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2022
Freezing of gait can cause reduced independence and quality of life for many with Parkinson’s disease. Episodes frequently occur at points of transition such as navigating a doorway.
