“…The unexpected novel finding of our study is that kinematic features of index finger abductions in PD patients, unlike healthy subjects, changed according to the time lapse between paired electrical stimuli and movement onset, with slower values being observed when 200 ms elapsed between movement onset and paired stimuli for STDT than when paired stimuli were delivered concomitantly with movement onset. Since the performance of PD patients worsens during dual task procedures (3234), one explanation for the decrease in the mean velocity of index finger abductions during STDT testing in PD patients might be the dual task design of our experimental protocol. However, we can exclude this hypothesis since changes in the mean velocity of index finger abductions were significant only at 200 ms all the intervals tested implied a dual task effect.…”

“…This finding is consistent with others' 21 and our previous work. 13 A novel finding is the potential impact of tDCS conditions on DTC. Specifically, tDCS condition may have influenced preferential task prioritization on either the cognitive task or the walking activity.…”

“…12 We applied this bi-hemispheric approach to people with PD and observed a lessening (though non-significant) of dual-task cost (DTC) during walking after a single tDCS session. 13 Recent studies suggest anodal tDCS combined with concurrent training (tango dancing, 14 dynamic balance training 15 ) may augment beneficial effects on walking and balance compared with tDCS alone. To our knowledge, the concept of tDCS plus a concurrent activity has not yet been explored in dualtask walking in PD.…”

“…Analisando o estudo de Swank, constata-se que utilizar a ETCC associada a uma tarefa motora e atividade cognitiva pode aumentar o efeito de desempenho geral devido ao aumento da excitabilidade do neurônio [6].…”
