Three-Dimensional Trunk and Lower Limbs Characteristics during Gait in Patients with Huntington's Disease

Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2017
Objective: A number of studies on gait disturbances have been conducted, however, no clear pattern of gait disorders was described. The aim of the study was to characterize the gait pattern in HD patients by conducting analysis of mean angular movement ...

Clinical Application of Gait Analysis in Neurological Disorders

Journal of the Korean Neurological Association
Objective and quantitative evaluation of the gait has a very important implications in patients with neurological disorders. Such evaluation is possible by gait analysis system and can be clinically useful. Gait analysis can be performed through laboratory systems, non-wearable sensors, and/or wearable sensors.

Culture-negative endocarditis with neurologic presentations and dramatic response to heparin: a case report

BMC Infectious Diseases, 2020
Background Blood culture-negative endocarditis (BCNE) is diagnosed in 2–7% of patients with infective endocarditis (IE) and recent antibiotic use is a known risk factor. Altered mental status may be a presenting symptom.

Reliability of timed walking tests and temporo-spatial gait parameters in youths with neurological gait disorders

BMC Neurology, 2016
BACKGROUND: The 10-Meter Walk Tests (10MWT) and the 6-Minute Walk Test (6MinWT) are applied to assess gait capacity in paediatric patients. To better objectify changes in qualitative aspects of gait, temporo-spatial parameters like stride length or step symmetry could be simultaneously assessed with a GAITRite system.

Control of the motion of the body's center of mass in relation to the center of pressure during high-heeled gait

, 2017
High-heeled shoes are associated with instability and falling, leading to injuries such as fracture and ankle sprain. Knowledge of the motion of the body's center of mass (COM) with respect to the center of pressure (COP) during high-heeled gait may ...

Gait Recognition by Dynamic Cues

, 2008
Many studies have now shown that it is possible to recognize people by the way they walk. As yet there has been little formal study of people recognition using the kinematic-related gait features.

A translational approach to capture gait signatures of neurological disorders in mice and humans

Scientific Reports, 2017
AbstractA method for capturing gait signatures in neurological conditions that allows comparison of human gait with animal models would be of great value in translational research. However, the velocity dependence of gait parameters and differences between quadruped and biped gait have made this comparison challenging.

Effectiveness of Dry Needling versus Placebo on Gait Performance, Spasticity, Electromyographic Activity, Pain, Range-of-Movement and Quality of Life in Patients with Multiple Sclerosis: A Randomized Controlled Trial Protocol

Brain Sciences, 2020
Dry needling (DN) is an emerging technique commonly used in neurological and musculoskeletal pain conditions, but there have been no previous studies in patients with multiple sclerosis (pwMS).

Comparing the efficacy of therapeutic Thai acupressure on plantar acupoints and laser cane therapy on freezing of gait in Parkinson’s disease: a randomized non-inferiority trial

Frontiers in Neurology
BackgroundON-freezing of gait (ON-FOG) in Parkinson’s disease (PD), often resistant to medication, is linked to sensory deficits and proprioceptive impairment, and results in falls and reduced life quality. While visual cues from a laser cane (LC), which

Kinematic movement and balance parameter analysis in neurological gait disorders

Journal of Biological Engineering
Abstract Background Neurological gait disorders are mainly classified based on clinical observation, and therefore difficult to objectify or quantify. Movement analysis systems provide objective parameters, which may increase diagnostic accuracy and may aid in monitoring the disease course.
