The position of the conus medullaris and the prevalence of isolated lipoma of filum terminale in Parkinson’s disease
Objective: To evaluate the positions of the conus medullaris in patients with Parkinson's disease(PD). To know the prevalence of isolated lipoma of filum terminale(LFT) in…Cerebral vasoreactivity in Parkinson’s disease and multiple system atrophy: A pilot study
Objective: To compare cerebral vasoreactivity in Parkinson´s disease (PD) and multiple system atrophy (MSA) patients with or without cardiovascular autonomic failure (CAF). Background: CAF is…Heart rate variability to differentiate dementia with Lewy bodies from Alzheimer’s disease in patients with mild cognitive impairment
Objective: We aimed to determine whether heart rate variability (HRV) can aid in the differentiation of DLB from AD at the MCI stage. Background: Mild…Composite autonomic symptom scale-31 (COMPASS-31) is useful for evaluation of autonomic dysfunction in patients with parkinsonism
Objective: To investigate the usefulness of composite autonomic symptom scale 31 (COMPASS-31) in patients with parkinsonism by comparing COMPASS-31 between PD and MSA patients, and…The clinical characteristics of Lewy body disease showed autonomic failures preceding motor signs
Objective: There are few cases of Lewy body disease who have been initially diagnosed as pure autonomic failure(PAF), because they had only autonomic symptoms for…Non-motor symptoms in a PPMI cohort of p.A53T α-synuclein mutation-related and sporadic Parkinson’s disease patients
Objective: To evaluate the prevalence of non-motor symptoms in p.A53T α-synuclein (SNCA) related Parkinson's disease (PD) as compared to sporadic Parkinson's disease (sPD) patients. Background:…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…Systematic literature review of droxidopa in clinical trials for neurogenic orthostatic hypotension (nOH) in parkinsonism
Objective: The aim of this study was to review the published evidence for the efficacy, safety, and dosing practices of droxidopa treatment for symptomatic neurogenic…Loss of heart rate variability in ALS: Time and frequency domain assessment
Objective: The aim of this study was to investigate alterations in cardiac autonomic control during sleep in patients affected by ALS. Background: Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis…Irritable bowel syndrome is more prevalent than functional constipation in Parkinson’s disease: Clinical spectrum and changes in gut microbiota
Objective: To assess distal functional gastrointestinal (GI) symptoms and their connection to fecal microbiota (FM) in Parkinson (PD) patients. Background: The majority of PD patients…
