Differential neural activation patterns in patients with Parkinson's disease and freezing of gait in response to concurrent cognitive and motor load.

PLoS ONE, 2013
Freezing of gait is a devastating symptom of Parkinson's disease (PD) that is exacerbated by the processing of cognitive information whilst walking.

Forward gait instability in patients with Parkinson’s disease with freezing of gait

Neuroscience Research, 2021
Freezing of gait (FOG) appears to be associated with increased risk of forward falls in patients with Parkinson's disease (PD). This study aimed to experimentally validate forward gait instability in PD patients with FOG (PD + FOG). Eleven PD + FOG patients, 9 PD patients without FOG (PD - FOG), and 13 healthy controls participated. Self-selected paced

Modeling freezing of gait in Parkinson's disease with a virtual reality paradigm

, 2013
Moore, ST ORCiD: 0000-0003-3995-4912Freezing of gait is a paroxysmal and disabling symptom that commonly affects patients in the latter stages of Parkinson's disease, however the intermittent nature of this symptom makes it difficult to study in the ...

Electrospun Wood‐Derived Biopolymers as Electrodes in Electrochemical Energy Storage Technologies

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Electrospinning transforms wood‐derived cellulose and lignin into architecturally defined, binder‐free carbon electrodes with tuneable porosity and functionality. This review shows how fibre design enables decoupled charge and mass transport, enhancing performance across battery systems, while identifying key challenges in spinnability, scalability ...

Freezing of Gait and its Associations in the Early and Advanced Clinical Motor Stages of Parkinson’s Disease: A Cross-Sectional Study

Journal of Parkinson’s Disease
Background: Freezing of gait is a common disabling symptom of Parkinson’s disease (PD) with limited treatment options. The pathophysiological mechanisms of freezing behaviour are still contentious.

Clinical features and related factors of freezing of gait in patients with Parkinson's disease

Brain and Behavior, 2021
Background Freezing of gait (FOG) is a disabling paroxysmal gait disorder that prevents starting or resuming walking, which seriously negatively affects patients’ quality of life (QOL).

The intrinsic and extrinsic aspects of freezing of gait [PDF]

Movement Disorders, 2008
Freezing of gait appears to result from a number of fundamental problems in patients with Parkinson disease. Automaticity is impaired, putting more stress on voluntary mechanisms. Internal drivers of movement are impaired, likely because of deficient basal ganglia function.

Deliberate gait scissoring to overcome freezing of gait in Parkinson disease [PDF]

Neurology, 2018
A 70-year-old man with Parkinson disease (PD) presented with gait scissoring, which he used purposely to overcome freezing of gait (video). This is important for 3 reasons. First, gait scissoring is traditionally equated with a functional disorder, but can apparently also be seen in PD.1 Second, although balance impairments are common in PD, gait ...
