Behaviour change techniques targeting both diet and physical activity in type 2 diabetes: a systematic review and meta-analysis
Cradock, Kevin A.; ÓLaighin, Gearóid; Finucane, Francis M.; Gainforth, Heather L.; Quinlan, Leo R.; Ginis, Kathleen A. Martin (Springer Nature, 2017-02-08)Background: Changing diet and physical activity behaviour is one of the cornerstones of type 2 diabetes treatment, but changing behaviour is challenging. The objective of this study was to identify behaviour change techniques ... -

Detecting freezing of gait with a tri-axial accelerometer in parkinson’s disease patients
Ahlrichs, Claas; Samà, Albert; Lawo, Michael; Cabestany, Joan; Rodríguez-Martín, Daniel; Pérez-López, Carlos; Sweeney, Dean; Quinlan, Leo R.; Laighin, Gearòid Ò; Counihan, Timothy; Browne, Patrick; Hadas, Lewy; Vainstein, Gabriel; Costa, Alberto; Annicchiarico, Roberta; Alcaine, Sheila; Mestre, Berta; Quispe, Paola; Bayes, Àngels; Rodríguez-Molinero, Alejandro (Springer Nature, 2015-10-01)Freezing of gait (FOG) is a common motor symptom of Parkinson's disease (PD), which presents itself as an inability to initiate or continue gait. This paper presents a method to monitor FOG episodes based only on acceleration ... -
