入选标准

  • Parkinson's disease patients
  • right-handed men/women of age > 18 years.
  • written informed consent
  • idiopathic PD, according to the UK Brain Bank Criteria.
  • disease severity 2.5, 3 or 4 on the Hoehn & Yahr scale (gait and/or balance disorders but still able to walk/stand independently.
  • gait and/or balance impairments that remain present during an optimal ON state, i.e. after a challenge with a supramaximal levodopa dosage. For this purpose, we will use criteria used previously in neurosurgery studies by our collaborators in Grenoble, and define ‘gait impairment’ as a UPDRS part III score ≥2 for the Gait item. Similarly, postural instability will be defined as a UPDRS III score ≥2 for the Pull test item, or a score ≥2 for the item ‘Falls unrelated to freezing’ of the UPDRS part II.
  • right-handed men/women of age > 18 years
  • written informed consent

排除标准

  • Parkinson disease patients
  • patients with levodopa-induced gait or balance disorders (e.g., levodopa-induced freezing of gait). We will therefore exclude patients who score greater on levodopa than off levodopa on the gait, balance or freezing items of the UPDRS. • failure to lay still for 90 minutes in the scanner (for example due to head tremor or medication-induced excessive movement)
  • failure to stand/walk independently
  • other causes of clinically relevant gait difficulties (eg, orthopedic or vestibular disorders)
  • contra-indications for MR scanning (eg, clautrophobia)
  • other neurological disorders such as stroke in history or a psychiatric disease
  • depression
  • cognitive impairment (MMSE <26).
  • severe comorbidity (eg cancer)
  • pregnancy
  • poor eyesight
  • failure to lay still for 90 minutes in the scanner (for example due to head tremor or medication-induced excessive movement)
  • failure to stand/walk independently
  • causes of clinically relevant gait/balance difficulties (eg, orthopedic or vestibular disorders)
  • contra-indications for MR scanning (eg, claustrophobia).
  • any neurological disorders such as stroke in history or a psychiatric disease
  • depression
  • cognitive impairment (MMSE <26).
  • severe comorbidity (eg cancer)
  • pregnancy
  • poor eyesight
