Acute and Chronic Effect of Acoustic and Visual Cues on Gait Training in Parkinson’s Disease: A Randomized, Controlled Study

Table 2

Acute effects of acoustic cueing: comparison of gait with and without cue conditioning. Data are expressed as mean ± sd. The right column reports the values for group comparison.

Stride length (cm)	83.5 ± 25.7	102.1 ± 31.6	<0.05
Stance (% of stride)	73.8 ± 7.5	75.5 ± 4.6	NS
Swing (% of stride)	26.2 ± 7.5	24.5 ± 4.6	NS
