## Abstract Freezing of gait in Parkinson's disease can be difficult to study in the laboratory. Here we investigate the use of a variable‐width doorway to provoke freeze behavior together with new objective methods to measure it. With this approach we compare the effects of anti‐parkinsonian treat

Freezing of gait (FOG) is a common and very disabling symptom in Parkinson's disease (PD). It is usually observed in the advanced stage of the disease, although a mild form can be seen in the early stage. Although some studies have suggested that longer duration of dopaminergic treatment is associat

## Abstract Caffeine is a nonselective competitive blockade of adenosine A1 and A2A receptors. In this report, we studied the efficacy of 100 mg of caffeine per day on the freezing of gait (FOG) for patients with Parkinson's disease. Different subtypes of FOG showed different therapeutic responses
