In a nutshell This study reviewed the impact of deep brain stimulation (DBS) on sleep in patients with Parkinson's disease (PD). Researchers suggested that DBS improves sleep in patients with PD. Some background PD is a chronic disease that affects brain cells. These cells lose their ability to control body functions causing physical and...
Read MoreIn a nutshell This study reviewed the different physical therapies for gait complications in patients with Parkinson's disease in order to make new clinical guidelines. Researchers suggested that visual and auditory cueing (VAC) with treadmill training is a good option for these patients. Some background Parkinson's disease affects...

In a nutshell This study investigated the effectiveness of high frequency repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (HFMS) in patients with Parkinson's disease (PD). Researchers suggested that HFMS improves freezing of gait (FOG) in these patients. Some background Parkinson's disease (PD) affects brain cells. The abilities controlled by...

In a nutshell This study investigated the effectiveness of high-frequency repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (HF-RTMS) on patients with Parkinson's disease (PD) and dysphagia (problems with swallowing). Researchers suggested that HF-RTMS improves swallowing in these patients. Some background Parkinson's disease (PD) is a chronic...
