Midbrain Diameter Measurements on High-Resolution Computer Tomography Scans to aid diagnosis of Progressive Supranuclear Palsy
Objective: To establish whether high-resolution computer tomography (CT) scans can aid the diagnosis of progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP), and multiple system atrophy (MSA). Background: The…Revision of Parkinson’s disease diagnosis during a long-term follow-up
Objective: The aim of this work was to describe the features of patients with an incorrect diagnosis of Parkinson’s disease (PD) during a long-term clinical…Discrepancies in assessments of freezing of gait: Self-report, clinical, and physical therapy assessments
Objective: To investigate whether self-report, clinical, and physical therapy (PT) assessments differ in identifying freezing of gait (FOG) in Parkinson’s disease (PD). Background: Most studies…Neurohormetic properties of mild physical stress against Parkinson’s disease phenotype
Objective: To test whether routine mild physical stress acts as a hormetic strategy against Parkinsonian symptoms among mice. Background: Regular physical exercise is suggested to…Long-term effects of music as an auditory cue on motor and non-motor symptoms of Parkinson’s disease: A case report
Objective: To evaluate long-term effects of using music to improve motor & non-motor symptoms on a patient with a 10 year history of Parkinson's. Background:…Restless legs syndrome as a first manifestation of cerebral stroke: Clinical analysis of 7 cases
Objective: To investigate the relationship between RLS and the lesion topography and clinical features of stroke. Background: Restless legs syndrome (RLS) is a sleep-related sensorimotor…The role of immediate communication by text or phone calls by patients with fluctuation motor complaints in Parkinson’s disease and other movement disorders
Objective: To evaluate the usefulness of immediate response by phone/text messages to questions of patients with Parkinson’s disease and other movement disorders Background: Communicating with…Costs and outcomes for Parkinson’s disease patients who have their management adjusted by Personal KinetiGraph (PKG)
Objective: To quantify the potential cost savings and quality adjusted life years (QALYs) gained for people with Parkinson’s disease in Australia whose oral therapy was…Development of a system to measure the kinetic responses of parkinsonian animal model
Objective: To develop a system for evaluating a parkinsonian animal model using the kinetic responses of foot pressures during normal walking Background: Animal model of…Evaluation of visual perceptive computing for Tremor Analysis
Objective: To evaluate an approach of visual contact-free tremor detection using infrared video capabilities of the Microsoft Kinect™ sensor. Background: Tremor is one of the…
