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…Primary progressive apraxia: an unusual ideomotor syndrome
Objective: We describe and demonstrate by video 2 cases of primary ideomotor progressive apraxia with progressive difficulty with hand dexterity and manipulation and mild parkinsonism…Improvement of apraxia of eyelid opening in a patient with Parkinson’s disease following the change of the implantable pulse generator for subthalamic nucleus deep brain stimulation .
Objective: To report a patient with Parkinson's disease (PD) in whom apraxia of eyelid opening (ALO) improved after the change of another implantable pulse generator…Corticobasal syndrome due to brain tumor
Objective: To describe a case of a 60-year-old female that presented with cognitive decline and gait disorders for the last 7 years. Background: The…Gait and Balance Impairment After Methanol Intoxication
Objective: We analyzed gait and postural instability in patients after methanol intoxication, with the aim to verify prevailing parkinsonian gait pattern. Background: Methanol is a…Abnormal DaTscan in a case of Anoxic brain injury
Objective: To study the utility of DaTscan in anoxic brain injury. Background: Parkinsonism is a clinical syndrome seen in Parkinson Disease (PD) which includes tremors,…Theta burst repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation in a case with cortical-basal ganglionic degeneration
Objective: Corticobasal ganglionic degeneration (CBGD) is a progressive taupathy involving frontal and parietal cortices as well as basal ganglia. The disease is clinically characterized by…“Words untold”
Objective: To highlight the salient clinical and pathologic features of primary progressive apraxia of speech through a clinical case presentation. Background: Apraxia of speech is…Coin rotation as strongest predictor of buttoning in Parkinson’s: A multicenter study demonstrating the everyday impact of limb-kinetic apraxia
Objective: Applying a three site multi-center approach, we aimed to identify the significant predictors of buttoning and unbuttoning in PD. We hypothesized that coin rotation…Overlapping corticobasal syndromes: The many faces of the Armstrong criteria
Objective: To evaluate the prevalence and clinical presentation of corticobasal variants listed in the new Armstrong criteria, exploring their overlap with progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP),…
