Sentence examples for freezing episode from inspiring English sources

Freezing episodes were defined following the work by Kompoliti et al. [30]: "One freezing episode was defined as stop and/or hesitation until the next step was accomplished independently of the number of hesitations in place".

In addition, the rate of seizures and behavioural freezing in the surviving mice was blindly monitored by nine independent observers using a neurological score (0 5: 0,1, no seizures and freezing episodes and 5, many seizures or freezing episodes).

PD patients showed a significant reduction in freezing episodes during tDCS compared to sham.

However, patients who reported freezing episodes in daily life (N = 6) showed a beneficial effect of tDCS on stroke characteristics.

A one-way Chi-Square (χ2) was performed in order to assess differences in proportions of type of freezing episodes.

All PD+FOG also suffered freezing episodes and they took longer to complete turns (vs. PD-FOG; and Controls), PD-FOG also took longer than Controls [36].

Patient 6 had 24 discrete freezing episodes identifiable during recordings and a local field potential alpha peak during gait at 8 Hz.

Due to the reduction in freezing postoperatively due to a possible stun effect, we could only compare freezing episodes with alpha power in a single patient, who was implanted unilaterally.

Post hoc tests were corrected for multiple comparisons using the False Discovery Rate Procedure (Bejamini and Hochberg, 1995) Patients in the PD-FOG group experienced clinically visible gait freezing episodes only when turning and not during the straight walking task.

These procedures might eliminate or diminish freezing episodes However, these techniques may be associated with an increased risk of falling, which PD patients already are at risk at, and fall prevention is essential to avoid serious fractures or injuries to the head [ 9].

This suggests that higher gait speeds could have, at least partly, resulted from relief of freezing related deficits even if discrete freezing episodes did not frequently occur.
