  • Abstract

    It is unknown how sex affects the prevalence of freezing of gait (FOG). We conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis to establish the sex-specific prevalence of FOG in persons with Parkinson’s disease (PD). In addition, we investigated whether men and women were represented accurately in intervention trials targeting FOG.
