Brief summary (registry, in English)

This is a cross-sectional exploratory study. A total of 25 people with PD, 25 young healthy adults, and 25 middle to older adults will be recruited. Axial segment turning pattern and turning performance will be evaluated in two visits using the Vicon 3D motion analysis system, Gaitup, and 3D motion camera. The independent variables are the initiation timing of the head, upper trunk, pelvis, ankle, and foot when turning and the initiation sequence of turning (% turn). The dependent variables are turning performance, including turning velocity, turning steps, turning step length, turning step width), and stance phase (%).
