By Dr. Liji Thomas, MD By merging voice instability, gait asymmetry, and tremor-driven handwriting changes into a single explainable AI framework, researchers show how digital biomarkers can move ...

HONOLULU — Adding intermittent theta-burst trans-spinal magnetic stimulation to treadmill training is safe and improves gait and other motor symptoms in adults with Parkinson’s disease (PD), new ...

HONOLULU — Virtual reality (VR) may help clinicians better assess gait disturbances, including freezing of gait (FOG), in patients with Parkinson’s disease (PD). Using a “Virtual Gait Lab” system, ...

In a recent study published in Nature Medicine, a group of researchers demonstrated the effectiveness of soft robotic apparel in averting Freezing of Gait (FoG) in Parkinson's disease (PD) patients, ...

Patients with PD and FOG generally exhibited increased symptoms of rapid eye movement sleep behavior disorder (n=9 studies), daytime sleepiness (n=4 studies), and sleep disturbances (n=4 studies).

Since 1987, only 57 cases of comorbid Parkinson disease (PD) and myasthenia gravis (MG) have been reported. The combination of Parkinson disease (PD) and myasthenia gravis (MG) is rarely seen in ...

The integration of deep reinforcement learning with PD control in humanoid robots enhances gait stability and patient comfort ...
