- Relationship Between Posturography, Clinical Balance and Executive Function in Parkinson ' s Disease(2019) SOUZA, Carolina de Oliveira; VOOS, Mariana Callil; BARBOSA, Alessandra Ferreira; CHEN, Janini; FRANCATO, Debora Cristina Valente; MILOSEVIC, Matija; POPOVIC, Milos; FONOFF, Erich Talamoni; CHIEN, Hsin Fen; BARBOSA, Egberto ReisThis study aimed to evaluate the relationship between posturography, clinical balance, and executive function tests in Parkinson ' s disease (PD). Seventy-one people participated in the study. Static posturography evaluated the center of pressure fluctuations in quiet standing and dynamic posturography assessed sit-to-stand, tandem walk, and step over an obstacle. Functional balance was evaluated by Berg Balance Scale, MiniBESTest, and Timed Up and Go test. Executive function was assessed by Trail Making Test (TMT) and semantic verbal fluency test. Step over obstacle measures (percentage of body weight transfer and movement time) were moderately correlated to Timed Up and Go, part B of TMT and semantic verbal fluency (r > 0.40; p < 0.05 in all relationships). Stepping over an obstacle assesses the responses to internal perturbations. Participants with shorter movement times and higher percentage of body weight transfer (higher lift up index) on this task were also faster in Timed Up and Go, part B of TMT, and semantic verbal fluency. All these tasks require executive function (problem solving, sequencing, shifting attention), which is affected by PD and contribute to postural assessment.
- Is virtual reality beneficial for dual-task gait training in patients with Parkinson's disease? A systematic review(2019) FREITAG, Fernanda; BRUCKI, Sonia Maria Dozzi; BARBOSA, Alessandra Ferreira; CHEN, Janini; SOUZA, Carolina de Oliveira; VALENTE, Débora Francato; CHIEN, Hsin Fen; BEDESCHI, Cynthia; VOOS, Mariana CallilABSTRACT This systematic review examined the evidence about the effects of virtual reality (VR) on dual-task gait training in Parkinson's disease (PD). Methods: this study (PROSPERO registration CRD42019114736) aimed to answer the question: “Is VR beneficial for dual-task gait training in patients with PD?” We searched for studies from 2008 to 2018 on Medline/PubMed and Web of Science/Web of knowledge databases. The keywords were Parkinson AND gait training AND virtual reality OR Parkinson AND gait training AND game. A total of 55 articles were retrieved, of which 11 systematic reviews, 11 opinions, letters to the editor, posters or conferences abstracts and 17 studies not evaluating the effects of VR gait training were excluded. Three further studies addressing VR dual-task gait training in PD (found in references of studies selected) were also included. Therefore, 19 studies were included and analysed. Results: all studies reported gait improvement after VR training. Many clinical scales were used, hampering comparison of the effects of each protocol. Conclusion: VR dual-task gait training should be part of rehabilitation protocols for PD. The studies showed that VR training was effective, although specific guidelines have not yet been established.
