Frontiers | Attenuated afferent inhibition correlated with impaired gait performance in Parkinson’s disease patients with freezing of gait
1 Department of Neurology, The First Affiliated Hospital of Anhui Medical University, Hefei, China 2 Department of Neurology, Affiliated Yantai Yuhuangding Hospital of Qingdao University, Yantai, China Background: The neural mechanisms underlying freezing of gait (FOG) in Parkinson’s disease (PD) have not been completely comprehended. Sensory-motor integration dysfunction was proposed as one of the contributing factors. Here, we investigated short-latency afferent inhibition (SAI) and long-latency
