Parkinson's study: does body sway affect hand dexterity?
NCT ID NCT07182487
First seen Nov 01, 2025 · Last updated Jun 20, 2026 · Updated 27 times
Summary
This study looked at 80 people with Parkinson's to see if there is a link between how much their trunk sways and how well they can use their hands. Researchers used a motion sensor to measure trunk sway and a pegboard test to measure hand dexterity. The goal is to understand if better trunk control might help with fine hand movements.

What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
What this could lead to
If the link is confirmed, it could help design better physical therapy that targets trunk stability to improve hand function in Parkinson's.
What could go wrong
This is a small, completed observational study, not a treatment trial. It only measures relationships, so it cannot prove that improving trunk sway will improve hand skills.
