Parkinsonian Rigidity Depends on the Velocity of Passive Joint Movement
Background. It has been long believed that Parkinsonian rigidity is not velocity-dependent based on the neurological examination. However, this has not been verified scientifically. Methods. The elbow joints of 20 Parkinson’s disease patients were passively flexed and extended, and two characteristi...
