Long-term effect of safinamide on primary motor cortex excitability and plasticity in Parkinson’s disease: a TMS study
Objective: To examine the long-term effect of chronic treatment with safinamide 100 mg/day on specific Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) measures of primary motor cortex (M1)…Abnormalities of vestibular-evoked myogenic potentials are associated with REM sleep without atonia in early Parkinson’s disease and idiopathic REM sleep behavior disorder
Objective: To explore the brainstem lesion reflected by means of vestibular-evoked myogenic potentials(VEMPs) and its association with REM sleep without atonia(RSWA) and other clinical assessments…Autonomic dysfunction in patients with Parkinson’s disease
Objective: Discuss the prevalence, clinical manifestations, and impact of autonomic dysfunction in Parkinson's disease (PD). Background: Autonomic dysfunction is an important non-motor feature of PD…Anxiety and depression in patients with Parkinson’s disease selected for magnetic resonance-guided focused ultrasound thalamotomy.
Objective: To assess the severity of anxiety and depression in patients selected for treatment with the magnetic resonance-guided focused ultrasound thalamotomy (MRgFUS TT) before the…What predicts RBD in PD patients: video-polysomnographycally supported data from advanced, fluctuating Parkinson’s disease?
Objective: We aimed to identify factors that predict the occurrence of REM Sleep Behaviour disorder (RBD) in Parkinson’s Disease (PD) patients by modelling data from…Predictors of Clinically Significant Quality of Life Impairment in Parkinson´s Disease. Results from the COPPADIS Cohort at 2 Years Follow-up.
Objective: The aim of the present study was to identify predictors of clinically significant quality of life (QoL) impairment in Parkinson´s disease (PD) patients from…Smell dysfunction correlates with severity of motor deficits in H&Y stage-I early onset Parkinson’s disease
Objective: The objective of this study is to test the hypotheses that: 1) olfactory dysfunction in early stage Parkinson’s disease (PD) is correlated with severity…MICROBIAL TRANSLOCATION IN PATIENTS WITH PARKINSON DISEASE AT THE UNIVERSITY TEACHING HOSPITAL, LUSAKA, ZAMBIA: A CASE CONTROL STUDY
Objective: To study the association of microbial translocation in patients with Parkinson disease in Zambia. Background: Over the past few years evidence has emerged that…Cerebrospinal fluid levels of oxidative stress measured using diacron-reactive oxygen metabolites and biological antioxidant potential in patients with Parkinson’s disease and progressive supranuclear palsy
Objective: We aimed to evaluate cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) levels of oxidative stress (OS) and antioxidant potential using diacron-reactive oxygen metabolites (d-ROMs) and biological antioxidant potential…Markers of Parkinson-related impulsive-compulsive behaviors in the activity of single units in the subthalamic nucleus
Objective: To characterize the features of the activity of single neurons of the subthalamic nucleus associated to impulsive-compulsive behaviors (ICBs) in Parkinson’s Disease (PD). Background:…
