Robot-assisted gait training (RAGT) combined with conventional therapy may improve balance and gait function in patients with Adult Polyglucosan Body Disease (APBD). This approach shows potential for rare neurodegenerative disorders.
Area of Science:
- Neuroscience
- Rehabilitation Medicine
- Rare Diseases
Background:
- Adult Polyglucosan Body Disease (APBD) is a rare neurodegenerative disorder causing progressive gait disturbance and balance dysfunction.
- Limited evidence exists for robot-assisted gait training (RAGT) in APBD management.
- Proprioceptive impairment and sensory ataxia significantly contribute to gait issues in APBD.
