Sympathetic Burden Measured Through a Chest-Worn Sensor Correlates with Spatiotemporal Gait Performances and Global Cognition in Parkinson’s Disease

Autonomic dysfunction is a key non-motor feature of Parkinson’s disease (PD) and may influence motor performance, particularly gait. While heart rate variability (HRV) has been associated with freezing of gait, its relationship with broader gait parameters remains unclear. The objective was to inves...
