Abstract: Freezing of gait (FOG) in Parkinson’s disease (PD) can be triggered by sensomotor, cognitive or limbic factors. The limbic system’s impact on FOG is attributed to elevated limbic load, characterized by aversive stimuli, potentially depleting… read more here.

Abstract: Typical anticipatory postural adjustments (APAs) in forward gait or step initiation tasks to prepare for possible disturbances caused by prime voluntary movements and to accelerate the body forward have been previously reported. However, it is… read more here.
