Spatiotemporal characteristics of postsaccadic dynamic overshoot in young and elderly subjects.


ABSTRACT: Saccadic eye movements may not stop steadily but fluctuate briefly, known as saccadic dynamic overshoot (SDO). The reported relationships between SDO and saccadic parameters of main saccade and the effect of aging on SDO are controversial. In addition, it is not clear whether aging-related disease, such as mild cognitive impairment (MCI) and Parkinson disease (PD), causes the specific change of SDO. To address these questions, we analyzed the spatiotemporal features of SDO in young healthy subjects, elderly healthy subjects, and subjects with PD and MCI in three oculomotor tasks. We found two types of SDOs-simple and complex SDO. We confirmed that the frequency and amplitude of SDO were positively correlated with the peak velocity and deceleration of main saccades and increased in elderly subjects; however, they were not significantly different among the three elderly groups. Our results support the previous argument that the oculomotor structure in brainstem and cerebellum directly develop SDO.
