Imitation of hand movements in Parkinson’s disease: A comparison with visual cueing
Objective: To explore imitation and its therapeutic potential in Parkinson's disease (PD) using kinematic analysis of hand movements. Background: Action observation and imitation have been…Visual hallucinations and executive dysfunction in Charles Bonnet syndrome: Preliminary findings from SHAPED
Objective: To establish whether frontal cognitive deficits associated with visual hallucinations in Parkinson's disease (PD) are also present in patients with Charles Bonnet Syndrome (CBS).…Neuroleptic medication is associated with a worse health status in the years prior to treatment, but have the potential for normalization
Objective: To determine the interval between impact on health-related quality of life (HRQL) and initiation of treatment with neuroleptics in patients with Parkinson's disease (PD)…Long term prognosis of functional motor disorders, a case-control follow-up study
Objective: To determine long term symptom outcome, quality of life, psychiatric co morbidity, work plus social adjustment and mortality of patients with a functional motor…Movement disorders in diabetes – Report of two cases
Objective: We would like to present two diabetic patients with rare motor symptomatology. Background: Diabetes may coexist with some movement disorders. There is increasing body…Freezing of gait is associated with more fear of falling avoidance behavior and less participation in daily physical activity
Objective: To compare those with and without freezing of gait (FOG) in Parkinson's disease (PD). Background: The presence of FOG in PD has been shown…Validity and reliability of the Turkish version of the scales for outcomes in Parkinson’s disease-autonomic questionnaire (SCOPA-AUT)
Objective: The aim of this study was to evaluate the validity and reliability of the Turkish version of the SCOPA-AUT. Background: The scales for outcomes…Unilateral pallidotomy for cervical dystonia
Objective: We investigated the validity of unilateral pallidotomy for cervical dystonia using severity scale of Toronto Western Spasmodic Torticollis Rating Scale (TWSTRS, range: 0-35). Background:…Endoscopic-guided injection of botulinum toxin into the longus capitis muscle and into the obliquus superior part of the longus colli muscle in dystonic antecaput
Objective: Cervical dystonia is the most commonly described dystonia. Since examinations of the muscle using imaging techniques were started [1], the classification of the phenomenological…Sensory gating and inhibition in dystonia
Objective: By performing an extensive evaluation of neurophysiological measurements accounting for inhibitory mechanisms within the S1, we aim to find if a central nervous system…
