Monitoring nocturnal movement and sleep in Parkinson’s disease: a systematic review of movement sensors

Manon D. Mijnsbergen, Paulien J. van Tilborg, Luuk Kerckhaert, Rolf Fronczek et autres

Movement sensors are increasingly used to assess sleep by detecting nocturnal (in)activity in Parkinson's disease (PD) research, but these studies are methodologically highly heterogenous and lack standardization. This systematic reviews evaluates 70 studies to inform standardization protocols for both research and clinical …

Added value of a wrist-worn device for assessing tremor in Parkinson’s disease: reliability and validity of tremor evaluation at home

Dagmar H. Hepp, KENNETH W. OCRAN, Antónia Szántó, J.J. van Hilten et autres

Clinical assessment and self-report of tremor in Parkinson's disease (PD) have several limitations, including recall bias and lack of sensitivity. Wearable-based technology offers an opportunity to address these shortcomings. We investigated the test-retest reliability of wearable tremor assessment and compared the different …

Disturbed rest-activity rhythm in Parkinson's disease: Associations with motor severity and orthostatic hypotension

Manon D. Mijnsbergen, Vasileios Exadaktylos, Jacobus Johannes van Hilten, Dagmar H. Hepp et autres

BackgroundThe rest-activity rhythm (RAR) captures the distribution of rest and activity periods between and within days. Disturbed RAR has been observed in Parkinson's disease (PD), but the contribution of motor and non-motor symptoms to RAR disturbances remains unclear.ObjectiveTo evaluate the extent to …

External Validation and Further Exploration of Fall Prediction Models Based on Questionnaires and Daily-Life Trunk Accelerometry

Yuge Zhang, Roel H. A. Weijer, Kimberley S. van Schooten, Sjoerd Matthijs Bruijn et autres

Ambulatory measurements of trunk accelerations can provide valuable insight into the amount and quality of daily life activities. Such information has been used to create models to identify individuals at high risk of falls. However, external validation of such prediction models is …

Responsiveness of Daily Life Gait Quality Characteristics over One Year in Older Adults Who Experienced a Fall or Engaged in Balance Exercise

Sabine Schootemeijer, Roel H. A. Weijer, Marco J.M. Hoozemans, Kim Delbaere et autres

Gait quality characteristics obtained from daily-life accelerometry are clinically relevant for fall risk in older adults but it is unknown whether these characteristics are responsive to changes in gait quality. We aimed to test whether accelerometry-based daily-life gait quality characteristics are reliable …

Strong relationship of muscle force and fall efficacy, but not of gait kinematics, with number of falls in the year after Total Hip Arthroplasty for osteoarthritis: An exploratory study

Xiaobin Lin, WU Wen-hua, Roel H. A. Weijer, Maarten R. Prins et autres

Background In people with moderate hip osteoarthritis, gait kinematics was reported to be correlated with number of falls in the preceding year. After Total Hip Arthroplasty, subjects generally improve but still fall. The present study explores recovery and correlations with number of …

The short- and long-term temporal relation between falls and concern about falling in older adults without a recent history of falling

Roel H. A. Weijer, Marco J.M. Hoozemans, Onno G. Meijer, Jaap H. van Dieën et autres

BACKGROUND AND AIM: The reciprocal relation between falling and concern about falling is complex and not well understood. We aimed to determine whether concern about falling increases after a fall and whether concern about falling increases the odds of future falls in …

Construct validity and reliability of the modified gait efficacy scale for older adults

Roel H. A. Weijer, Marco J.M. Hoozemans, Jaap H. van Dieën, Mirjam A. G. M. Pijnappels

PURPOSE: To perform a cross-cultural adaptation of the mGES into Dutch and investigate its construct validity, internal consistency, test-retest reliability and floor and ceiling effects in a large cohort of community-dwelling older adults. MATERIALS AND METHODS: We translated the British version of …
