Connectivity of EEG synchronization networks increases for Parkinson’s disease patients with freezing of gait
Asher et al analyzed synchronization networks of electroencephalography brain waves from three Parkinson’s disease (PD) patient groups with different freezing of gait (FoG) severity using tools based on network science and non-linear dynamics. Their findings suggest that there is a potential relatio...

| description | Asher et al analyzed synchronization networks of electroencephalography brain waves from three Parkinson’s disease (PD) patient groups with different freezing of gait (FoG) severity using tools based on network science and non-linear dynamics. Their findings suggest that there is a potential relationship between PD/FoG severity and overall EEG synchronization and their approach could be used to help gain further insight into the pathophysiology leading to FoG. |
