The aim of this study was to quantify the tremor of the hand during a natural movement (kinetic tremor) in tremor-dominant parkinsonian patients (n = 13). We used a three-dimensional camera system to kinematically analyze rest and kinetic tremors in an unrestrained reach-to-grasp movement, and addit

We examined eyelid movements during spontaneous, voluntary, and trigeminal reflex blinks in 16 patients with mild to moderate Parkinson's disease (PD) off medication and 14 controls. Voluntary and reflex blink amplitudes tended to be smaller than normal for PD patients, whereas eyelid kinematics (am
## Abstract Although sensory symptoms were not originally described in Parkinson's disease (PD), in recent years it has been increasingly recognized that painful sensations and paresthesias occur in βΌ40% of patients. It has been our observation that PD patients often describe a sensation of interna
## Abstract Mirror movements (MM) refer to ipsilateral involuntary movements that appear during voluntary activity in contralateral homologous body regions. This study aimed to compare the frequency and distribution of MM in an unselected sample of 274 patients with Parkinson's disease (PD) and 100
