Five functional domains associated with gait performance in Parkinson’s disease and lateral trunk flexion by Keisuke Ota, Hiroki Mani, Keita Nochimura, Yuichi Nakashiro, Shinsuke Hamada, Fumio Moriwaka

“…The participants walked with a motion sensor on a straight 20 m path at a comfortable speed. Fifteen gait variables (10 gait cycles) were evaluated and categorized into pace, rhythm, asymmetry, variability, and postural control functional domains and were compared between groups.ResultsThe LTF angle, SVV angle; MDS-UPDRS-Part III total, rigidity, and axial scores; and the coefficients of variance for step length, step time, and stance time were significantly higher in the LTF group than in the No LTF group. …”

Patterns of intra-cluster correlation coefficients in school-based cluster randomised controlled trials of interventions for improving social-emotional functioning outcomes in pupi... by Kitty Parker, Michael Nunns, ZhiMin Xiao, Tamsin Ford, Paul Stallard, Willem Kuyken, Nick Axford, Obioha C. Ukoumunne

“…Abstract Background The cluster randomised trial (CRT) design is increasingly used to evaluate the impact of school-based interventions for improving social-emotional functioning outcomes in pupils. Good knowledge is required on plausible values of the intra-cluster correlation coefficient (ICC) of the outcome to calculate the required sample size in such studies. …”
