Paradoxical kinesia at war

Movement Disorders, 2007
AbstractParadoxical kinesia is the sudden transient ability of a patient with Parkinson's disease to perform a task he was previously unable to perform, usually when facing an immediate threat. The sensory cues governing this behavior and the prevalence in real life situations are unknown.

Clinically deployable Kinesia™ technology for automated tremor assessment

Movement Disorders, 2009
AbstractThe objective was to design, build, and assess Kinesia™, a wireless system for automated assessment of Parkinson's disease (PD) tremor. The current standard in evaluating PD is the Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale (UPDRS), a qualitative ranking system typically completed during an office visit.

Paradoxical kinesia in Parkinson’s disease: theories and practical application

Zhurnal nevrologii i psikhiatrii im. S.S. Korsakova, 2016
This literature review addresses the phenomenon of paradoxical kinesia (PK) in patients with Parkinson's disease (PD). PK is the sudden ability of the patient wit hPD to perform movements that were previously disturbed. This ability can be caused by different internal or environmental stressors.

KICK AND RUSH: PARADOXICAL KINESIA IN PARKINSON DISEASE

Neurology, 2009
A 68-year-old enthusiastic soccer player with idiopathic Parkinson disease (PD) had unpredictable, immobilizing freezing of gait, which did not respond even to high doses of dopaminergic medication. By kicking a tennis ball attached to a rubber band, he could reliably overcome …

Protracted benefit from paradoxical kinesia in typical and atypical parkinsonisms

Neurological Sciences, 2010
Paradoxical kinesia (PK) is the sudden resolution of a previously stabilized akinesia in an advanced idiopathic Parkinson's disease (IPD) patient facing an immediate threat. We are reporting the effect of PK, as a consequence of a life threatening event (earthquake), in a group of 14 patients with parkinsonism and dementia in Hoehn/Yahr (H/Y) stage 3-5.

Interconnections and Modeling Schemes of Kinesia Paradoxa

2020
This article is about "kinesia paradoxa," a phenomenon presented in Parkinson's disease patients who generally suffer from bradykinesia and freezing of gait (FOG) but under certain circumstances exhibit a sudden, brief period of mobility. The objective of this paper was to identify the mechanisms causing this phenomenon, record possible brain circuits ...

Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy Effect on “Kinesia Paradoxa” Brain Circuits

2021
This article aims to determine the effectiveness of hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) for treating symptoms of Parkinson's disease. We present a brief review of the relevant literature and general information about HBOT. This paper describes evidence that HBOT has crucial effects to the three specific brain circuits possibly involved in "Kinesia ...

Paradoxical kinesia in Parkinson's disease revisited: Anticipation of temporal constraints is critical

Neuropsychologia, 2016
Slowness of movement, called bradykinesia is the cardinal symptom of Parkinson's disease. Under distinct but not yet well-defined circumstances, patients with Parkinson's disease are able to overcome bradykinesia. One common hypothesis for this phenomenon termed paradoxical kinesia in Parkinson's disease postulates that the presentation of external ...

Effects of Anterodorsal Pallidal Stimulation on Gait Freezing (Kinesia paradoxa) in Parkinson’s Disease

Stereotactic and Functional Neurosurgery, 2000
The results of a double-blind evaluation of the effects of internal globus pallidus (GPi) stimulation in 7 patients with advanced Parkinson’s disease are summarized. The evaluation was performed 6–8 months after surgery while the patients were on medication with an optimal dose and schedule. The stimulation was turned off for at least 12 h.
