Patient Acceptability and Technical Reliability of Wearable Devices Used for Monitoring People With Parkinson Disease: Survey Study

Patient Acceptability and Technical Reliability of Wearable Devices Used for Monitoring People With Parkinson Disease: Survey Study

Parkinson disease (PD) is a neurodegenerative chronic disease, affecting around 145,000 people in the United Kingdom in 2018, equivalent to approximately 1 adult in every 350 [1]. The currently accepted monitoring of PD symptoms in clinical practice and trials is based on interviews and validated clinical scales and questionnaires [2].

Detecting Freezing of Gait in Parkinson Disease Using Multiple Wearable Sensors Sets During Various Walking Tasks Relative to Medication Conditions (DetectFoG): Protocol for a Prospective Cohort Study

Detecting Freezing of Gait in Parkinson Disease Using Multiple Wearable Sensors Sets During Various Walking Tasks Relative to Medication Conditions (DetectFoG): Protocol for a Prospective Cohort Study

Affecting more than 8.5 million people worldwide in 2019, Parkinson disease (PD) is the second most common neurodegenerative disease [1]. PD is diagnosed using criteria from the UK Parkinson’s Disease Society Brain Bank [2] and is defined by the cardinal symptoms of tremor, bradykinesia, rigidity, and postural instability, along with other motor and nonmotor symptoms [3].

Self-Management Systems for Patients and Clinicians in Parkinson Care: Protocol for an Integrated Scoping Review, Product Search, and Evaluation

Self-Management Systems for Patients and Clinicians in Parkinson Care: Protocol for an Integrated Scoping Review, Product Search, and Evaluation

Parkinson disease (PD) is a complex and progressive neurological condition with no current cure. It represents the second most common neurodegenerative disorder worldwide [1], with a 30% rise in prevalence and incidence between 2018 and 2030 [2,3]. Clinicians in PD care often have limited data due to infrequent patient contact, constraining their ability to fully inform treatment decisions [4]. The diversity of symptoms experienced by people with PD means that care management is complex.

The Use of Telerehabilitation to Improve Movement-Related Outcomes and Quality of Life for Individuals With Parkinson Disease: Pilot Randomized Controlled Trial

The Use of Telerehabilitation to Improve Movement-Related Outcomes and Quality of Life for Individuals With Parkinson Disease: Pilot Randomized Controlled Trial

Individuals with Parkinson disease (PD) can improve their overall mobility and participation in daily activities as they engage in frequent exercise [1-6]. Further, exercise may provide a neuroprotective effect for these individuals, thereby limiting the progression of the disease [7]. As in other patient populations, individuals with PD demonstrate the greatest benefit from an exercise program that is designed to meet their specific needs [8,9].

Direct Clinical Applications of Natural Language Processing in Common Neurological Disorders: Scoping Review

Direct Clinical Applications of Natural Language Processing in Common Neurological Disorders: Scoping Review

Based on the most globally prevalent and costly neurological disorders [11], studies investigating the use of NLP in Alzheimer disease (exclusive of Alzheimer disease–related disorders), Parkinson disease, stroke and transient ischemic attack, epilepsy, multiple sclerosis (MS), and migraine were included.

Remote Evaluation of Sleep and Circadian Rhythms in Older Adults With Mild Cognitive Impairment and Dementia: Protocol for a Feasibility and Acceptability Mixed Methods Study

Remote Evaluation of Sleep and Circadian Rhythms in Older Adults With Mild Cognitive Impairment and Dementia: Protocol for a Feasibility and Acceptability Mixed Methods Study

For the LBD group, participants will require a clinical diagnosis of established or prodromal Parkinson disease dementia, dementia with Lewy bodies, MCI due to Parkinson disease, or MCI due to LBD obtained from medical records. This may include participants with mixed dementia where LBD is considered a significant component to clinical presentation. For the control group, participants will confirm that they have no known cognitive impairment or neurodegenerative condition.

Oral Cannabidiol for Seborrheic Dermatitis in Patients With Parkinson Disease: Randomized Clinical Trial

Oral Cannabidiol for Seborrheic Dermatitis in Patients With Parkinson Disease: Randomized Clinical Trial

Seborrheic dermatitis (SD) is related to increased sebum production and an inflammatory response to cutaneous Malassezia, and it affects 18.6%-59% of persons with Parkinson disease (PD) [1,2]. The mechanism connecting these two pathologies is not entirely clear; however, increasing evidence suggests a direct role of Malassezia in the pathogenesis of PD [2].

Artificial Intelligence Applications for Assessment, Monitoring, and Management of Parkinson Disease Symptoms: Protocol for a Systematic Review

Artificial Intelligence Applications for Assessment, Monitoring, and Management of Parkinson Disease Symptoms: Protocol for a Systematic Review

Parkinson disease (PD) is the second most prevalent neurodegenerative disease worldwide, with around 10 million people with PD worldwide [1]. This number represents a 2.5-fold increase in prevalence over the past generation [2,3]. PD is a neurological disorder associated with motor and nonmotor features [4] affecting multiple aspects of movement, including planning, initiation, and execution [5]. Management of PD is very complex over the course of the disease due to its progressive nature [6].

Turning When Using Smartphone in Persons With and Those Without Neurologic Conditions: Observational Study

Turning When Using Smartphone in Persons With and Those Without Neurologic Conditions: Observational Study

Post hoc analysis showed a significant difference between participants with Parkinson disease and those with lower-back pain for DTC of peak angular velocity for the head in both SDT and CDT conditions with participants with Parkinson disease, demonstrating a higher DTC (mean difference 33%, SD 9% and 32%, SD 10%, respectively; Figure 9). More details regarding the pairwise comparisons for the investigated variables can be found in the Multimedia Appendix 1.

Exercise Management Using a Mobile App in Patients With Parkinsonism: Prospective, Open-Label, Single-Arm Pilot Study

Exercise Management Using a Mobile App in Patients With Parkinsonism: Prospective, Open-Label, Single-Arm Pilot Study

Parkinson disease (PD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disease characterized by motor symptoms including tremors, rigidity, and bradykinesia, and nonmotor symptoms such as depression and cognitive impairment [1]. The physical activity level of patients with PD is approximately one-third of the general population because of their physical, cognitive, and emotional impairments.
