“…In addition, several studies and reviews support the effectiveness of external sensory cueing, by means of rhythmic auditory or visual cues, in improving kinematic parameters of gait (gait cadence, stride length, velocity, and postural stability) and the functional performance in people with PD, at least in the short term. 10 - 14 The results of the RESCUE trial showed small but specific and significant improvements in short-term on balance after cueing training, at least for PD patients without cognitive decline 15 and a recent narrative review included cues training interventions, among the rehabilitation intervention that showed promising therapeutic effects in improving balance in people with PD. 16 …”

BACKGROUND Gait disturbances represent one of the most disabling features of Parkinson’s disease (PD). AIM The aim of this study was to evaluate the non-inferiority of a new wearable visual cueing system (Q-Walk) for gait rehabilitation in PD subjects, compared to traditional visual cues (stripes on the floor). DESIGN Open-label, monocentric, randomized controlled non-inferiority trial. SETTING Outpatients. POPULATION Patients affected by idiopathic PD without cognitive impairment, Hoehn and Yahr stage II-IV, Unified Parkinson’s Disease Rating Scale motor section III ≥2, stable drug usage since at least 3 weeks. METHODS At the enrollment (T0), all subjects underwent a clinical/functional evaluation and the instrumental gait and postural analysis; then they were randomly assigned to the Study Group (SG) or Control Group (CG). Rehabilitation program consisted in 10 consecutive individual sessions (5 sessions/week for 2 consecutive weeks). Each session included 60 minutes of conventional physiotherapy plus 30 minutes of gait training by Q-Walk (SG) or by traditional visual cues (CG). Follow-up visits were scheduled at the end of the treatment (T1) and after 3 months (T2). RESULTS Fifty-two subjects were enrolled in the study, 26 in each group. The within-groups analysis showed a significant improvement in clinical scales and instrumental data at T1 and at T2, compared to baseline, in both groups. According to the between-group analysis, Q-Walk cueing system was not-inferior to the traditional cues for gait rehabilitation. The satisfaction questionnaire revealed that most subjects described the Q-Walk cueing system as simple, motivating and easily usable, possibly suitable for home use. CONCLUSIONS Data showed that motor rehabilitation of PD subjects performed by means of the new wearable Q-Walk cueing system was feasible and as effective as traditional cues in improving gait parameters and balance. CLINICAL REHABILITATION IMPACT Wearable devices can act as an additional rehabilitation strategy for long-term and continuous care, allowing patients to train intensively and extensively in household settings, favoring a tailor-made and personalized approach as well as remote monitoring.

Neurologic music therapy (NMT) represents a groundbreaking, interdisciplinary approach that combines the therapeutic properties of music with neuroscientific principles to treat a range of neurological and psychiatric conditions. This interdisciplinary approach, increasingly recognized in clinical and research settings, leverages advances in neuroimaging to explore how music affects the structure and activity of the brain. This review provides an in‐depth exploration of the multifaceted effects of NMT on brain function, highlighting its role in promoting neuroplastic changes and enhancing cognitive, emotional and motor functions in diverse patient groups. This review consolidates current knowledge on NMT and provides insights into how music affects brain structure and function and the mechanisms of action. The article then discusses the application and research results of NMT in various diseases such as stroke, Alzheimer's disease and Parkinson's disease. Its potential in personalizing therapeutic interventions and its ability to improve treatment access and effectiveness in various settings are highlighted.

BackgroundPersonalized dance-based movement therapies may improve cognitive and motor function in individuals with mild cognitive impairment (MCI), a precursor to Alzheimer’s disease. While age- and MCI-related deficits reduce individuals’ abilities to perform dance-like rhythmic movement sequences (RMS)—spatial and temporal modifications to movement—it remains unclear how relationships to dance and music affect the ability to perform RMS.ObjectiveCharacterize associations between RMS performance and music or dance relationships, as well as the ability to perceive rhythm and meter (rhythmic proficiency) in adults with and without MCI.MethodsWe used wearable inertial sensors to evaluate the ability of 12 young adults (YA; age=23.9±4.2 yrs; 9F), 26 older adults without MCI (OA; age=86.1±8.5 yrs; 16F), and 18 adults with MCI (MCI; age=70.8±6.2 yrs; 10F) to accurately perform spatial, temporal, and spatiotemporal RMS. To quantify self-reported music and dance relationships and rhythmic proficiency, we developed Music (MRQ) and Dance Relationship Questionnaires (DRQ), and a rhythm assessment (RA), respectively. We correlated MRQ, DRQ, and RA scores against RMS performance for each group separately.ResultsThe OA and YA groups exhibited better MRQ and RA scores than the MCI group (p<0.006). Better MRQ and RA scores were associated with better temporal RMS performance for only the YA and OA groups (r2=0.18-0.41; p<0.030). DRQ scores were not associated with RMS performance in any group.ConclusionsCognitive deficits in adults with MCI likely limit the extent to which relationships to music or rhythmic proficiency improve the ability to perform temporal aspects of dance-based therapies.
