Parkinson's disease (PD) is one of the most common movement disorders,
affecting approximately 1 million Americans (estimates range between 4
and 6.5 million people worldwide) and about 1% of older adults. In
the US alone, 60,000 new cases are diagnosed each year. PD is a
chronic and progressive neurological disorder that results in tremor,
rigidity, slowness, and postural instability. A disturbed gait is a
common, debilitating symptom; patients with severe gait disturbances
are prone to falls and may lose their functional independence.
This database contains measures of gait from 93 patients with
idiopathic PD (mean age: 66.3 years; 63% men), and 73 healthy controls
(mean age: 66.3 years; 55% men). The database includes the vertical
ground reaction force records of subjects as they walked at their
usual, self-selected pace for approximately 2 minutes on level ground.
Underneath each foot were 8 sensors
(Ultraflex Computer
Dyno Graphy, Infotronic Inc.) that measure force (in Newtons) as a
function of time. The output of each of these 16 sensors has been
digitized and recorded at 100 samples per second, and the records also
include two signals that reflect the sum of the 8 sensor outputs for
each foot. For details about the format of the data, please
see this note.
With this information, one can investigate the force record as a
function of time and location, derive measures that reflect the
center-of-pressure as a function of time, and determine timing
measures (e.g., stride time, swing time) for each foot as functions
of time. Thus, one can study the stride-to-stride dynamics and the
variability of these time series.
This database also includes demographic information, measures of
disease severity (i.e., using the Hoehn & Yahr staging and/or the
Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale) and other related measures
(available in
HTML or xls
spreadsheet format).
A subset of the database includes measures recorded as subjects
performed a second task (serial 7 subtractions) while walking, as in
the figure above, which shows excerpts of swing time series from a
patient with PD (lower panels) and a control subject (upper panels),
under usual walking conditions (at left) and when performing serial 7
subtractions (at right). Under usual walking conditions, variability
is larger in the patient with PD (Coefficient of Variation =
2.7%), compared to the control subject (CV = 1.3%). Variability
increases during dual tasking in the subject with PD (CV = 6.5%), but
not in the control subject (CV = 1.2%). From Yogev et al. (reference
[4] below).
