* (A) Pain was recorded on a
Visual Analog Scale from 0 (no pain)-10 (severe pain) for six sites
(neck, low back, R and L knee, R and L ankle) with a decreased mean
score representing improvement. ** (B-E) were reported as a
Percentage of the maximum score on standardized questionnaires: B)
Freezing of Gait Questionnaire (FOG-Q); (C)The 14-Item Resilience
Scale (RS-14); D) Fatigue Questionnaire; (E) Parkinson’s Disease Sleep
Scale. A decrease in the mean % scores on Fatigue and Freezing
represented improvement. An increase in the % scores on Resilience
and Sleep represented improvement. Self rated resilience was self
reported with moderate improvement and there were minimal effects
on the other signs and symptoms. |
