BACKGROUND: Lee Silverman voice treatment (LSVT) BIG is an exercise program developed for patients with Parkinson's disease (PwPD), consisting of sets of exercises performed for 4 consecutive days a week for 4 weeks. However, the standard protocol suggests a treatment frequency difficult to follow for most patients who have difficulties reaching rehabilitation clinics. Our aim was to compare the standard LSVT BIG protocol with a modified LSVT (m-LSVT) BIG protocol (twice a week in the clinic for 4 weeks and twice a week at home for 4 weeks)...

Closed-loop deep brain stimulation (DBS) shows great potential for precise neuromodulation of various neurological disorders, particularly Parkinson's disease (PD). However, substantial challenges remain in clinical translation due to the complex programming procedure of closed-loop DBS parameters. In this study, we proposed an online optimized amplitude adaptive strategy based on the particle swarm optimization (PSO) and proportional-integral-differential (PID) controller for modulation of the beta oscillation in a PD mean field model over long-term dynamic conditions...

BACKGROUND: Parkinson's Disease (PD) is the second most common progressive neurodegenerative disorder, mostly affecting balance and motor function caused mainly by a lack of dopamine in the brain. The use of virtual reality (VR) and motor imagery (MI) is emerging as an effective method of rehabilitation for people with Parkinson's disease. Motor imagery and virtual reality have not been compared in patients with Parkinson's disease. This randomized clinical trial is unique to compare the effects of virtual reality with routine physical therapy, motor imagery with routine physical therapy, and routine physical therapy alone on balance, motor function, and activities of daily living in patients with Parkinson's disease...

Parkinson's disease (PD) is an incurable and progressive neurological disorder leading to deleterious motor and non-motor consequences. Presently, no pharmacological agents can prevent PD evolution or progression, while pharmacological symptomatic treatments have limited effects in certain domains and cause side effects. Identification of interventions that prevent, slow, halt or mitigate the disease is therefore pivotal. Exercise is safe and represents a cornerstone in PD rehabilitation, but exercise may have even more fundamental benefits that could change clinical practice...

Gait rehabilitation using auditory cues can help older adults and people with Parkinson's improve walking performance. While auditory cues are convenient and can reliably modify gait cadence, it is not clear if auditory cues can reliably modify stride length (SL), another key gait performance metric. Existing algorithms also do not address habituation or fluctuation in motor capability, and have not been evaluated with target populations or under dual-task conditions. In this study, we develop an adaptive auditory cueing framework that aims to modulate SL and cadence...

Parkinson's disease targets patients' cognitive and motor abilities, including postural control. Many studies have been carried out to introduce mathematical models for a better understanding of postural control in such patients and the relation between the model parameters and the clinical assessments. So far, these studies have addressed this connection merely in static tests, such as quiet stance. The aim of this study is to develop a model for voluntary lean, and as such, identify the model parameters for both PD patients and healthy subjects from experimental data...

BACKGROUND: Freezing of gait (FOG) is an episodic and highly disabling symptom of Parkinson's Disease (PD). Traditionally, FOG assessment relies on time-consuming visual inspection of camera footage. Therefore, previous studies have proposed portable and automated solutions to annotate FOG. However, automated FOG assessment is challenging due to gait variability caused by medication effects and varying FOG-provoking tasks. Moreover, whether automated approaches can differentiate FOG from typical everyday movements, such as volitional stops, remains to be determined...
