Clinical aspects of postural instability in Parkinson’s disease
Objective: To identify the clinical features of postural instability by PD patients. Background: Postural instability (PI) to maintain body balance while walking. The causes of…Dopaminergic medication affects choice bias in Parkinson’s disease
Objective: Assess dopaminergic effects on choice bias in Parkinson's disease (PD). Background: Bradykinesia, rigidity and resting tremor are the core symptoms of PD, but many…A whole brain anatomical network model and its application in PD research
Objective: To build a frame of whole brain anatomical network for incorporating different data from different studies with different brain parcellations and resolutions, to evaluate…Impact of chronic LD treatment on metabolism, blood flow and blood-brain barrier permeability in the 6-OHDA rat model
Objective: To determine the effects of chronic LD treatment and induction of dyskinesias on cerebral metabolism, blood flow and blood-brain barrier permeability in 6-OHDA rat…Urate and homocysteine: Changes in motor and cognitive symptoms in newly diagnosed Parkinson’s disease
Objective: 1) To determine serum urate and homocysteine concentration at baseline, 18 and 36 months in control and PD participants. 2) To determine if urate…Impaired temporal coupling of action and perception in Parkinson’s disease
Objective: To study in Parkinson's disease (PD) the dependence of saccadic and perceptual reaction times (SRT and PRT) upon the temporal asynchrony (TA) between central…The impact of levodopa and apomorphine on beta- and gamma-oscillations in cortico-basal ganglia circuits in experimental parkinsonism
Objective: To clarify the role of pathologic oscillations in Parkinson's disease (PD) we recorded local field potentials (LFPs) in cortico-basal ganglia circuits of Parkinsonian and…Alterations in muscle synergies in early stage Parkinson’s disease
Objective: Identify whether muscle synergies are altered in stage I Parkinson's disease (PD). Background: Muscle synergies have been proposed as a mechanism utilized by the…Role of dopamine and GABA during subthalamic and pallidal deep brain stimulation: Evidence of dopamine release during subthalamic Deep Brain Stimulation
Objective: We recorded the single-unit activity of striatal cholinergic interneurons of healthy monkeys during high-frequency stimulation (HFS) of the subthalamic nucleus (STN) and globus pallidus…The evaluation of metabolic differences by using 18F-FDG-PET/CT in demented and non demented Idiophatic Parkinson’s disease patients
Objective: The objective of this study was to identify metabolic group differences between Idiopatic Parkinson's disease patients with dementia (PDD) and without dementia (PD), by…
