## Abstract Freezing of gait (FOG) is one of the most disabling symptoms that affect patients with Parkinson's disease (PD). Although the pathophysiology underlying FOG largely remains an enigma, several lines of evidence suggest that the autonomic nervous system might be involved. To this end, we

## Abstract To revalidate the Freezing of Gait Questionnaire (FOGβQ), patients with Parkinson's disease (PD) were randomly assigned to receive rasagiline (1 mg/day) (n = 150), entacapone (200 mg with each dose of levodopa) (n = 150), or placebo (n = 154). Patients were assessed at baseline and afte
Freezing of gait (FOG) has been known to respond favorably to sensory tricks and cues. However, FOG is a complex phenomenon with various motor control deficits at play. In this review, we examined and summarized the currently available evidence for the effectiveness of cueing for FOG to determine it
