Comparative analysis of upper limb motor function and articulation disorder in Parkinson’s disease
Objective: To assess the relationship between upper limb bradykinesia and hypokinetic dysarthria in Parkinson's disease (PD) using instrumental investigations of speech and limb motor function.…Reliability and responsiveness of in-clinic and at-home app-based bradykinesia assessment
Objective: To evaluate reliability and responsiveness of an objective app-based bradykinesia assessment tool in the clinic and at home and to compare it to clinical…A step forward to the future: UPDRS kinematic measures for telemedicine
Objective: We set up an experimental instrumentation to quantify selected items of UPDRS by a Kinect technology and body sensory-network (BSN), destinated to an easy…Automated Telehealth Diagnostics for Remote Parkinson Monitoring
Objective: To clinically assess and evaluate the impact of automated telehealth diagnostics on patients with Parkinson's disease (PD). Background: A single evaluation in a clinical…Are clinical certainty ratings helpful in the diagnosis of Parkinson’s disease?
Objective: To determine whether clinical certainty ratings are helpful in predicting pathologically proven PD. Background: Clinical diagnostic criteria for PD rely on rest tremor, bradykinesia,…FBOX07 mutation with juvenile parkinsonism and behavioral disorders
Objective: FBX07 (PARK15) mutations cause juvenile parkinsonism with autosomal ressesive inheritance. Juvenile parkinsonism, pyramidal tract signs and atypical symptoms such as dystonia, chorea, behavioral disturbances,…Parkinsonian symptoms in patients with cervical dystonia treated with bilateral pallidal deep brain stimulation: A controlled study
Objective: To 1) evaluate the presence of Parkinsonian symptoms in patients with cervical dystonia treated with bilateral deep brain stimulation (DBS) of the globus pallidus…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…Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease presenting predominantly with movement disorder: A case report
Objective: To highlight that Creutzfeldt-Jakob Disease can present predominantly with movement disorder. Background: Creutzfeldt-jakob Disease (CJD) is a rapidly progressive spongioform degeneration of the brain…Finger tapping distance in idiopathic normal pressure hydrocephalus changes in parallel with frontal lobe function
Objective: We assessed upper extremity function of idiopathic normal pressure hydrocephalus (iNPH) patients by quantitative finger tapping test and checked the correlation with other clinical…
