Representative APAs observed during gait initiation in Experiment I. A. Normal APA detected in a control subject. B. Small APA detected in a subject with PD. C. Feeble APA detected in a subject with PD. D. Feeble or absent, undetected APA in a subject with PD. Upper panel: COP displacements in the medio-lateral (ML) and antero-posterior (AP) directions, and trajectories of the malleolus and fifth metatarsal markers. Lower panel: trunk acceleration (ACC) in the medio-lateral (ML) and antero-posterior (AP) directions, and shank angular velocity. Shaded areas represent the APA phase.
