Could Sensory Mechanisms Be a Core Factor That Underlies Freezing of Gait in Parkinson’s Disease?
The main objective of this study was to determine how manipulating the amount of sensory information available about the body and surrounding environment influenced freezing of gait (FOG), while walking through a doorway. It was hypothesized that the more limited the sensory information, the greater...
