Assessing the optimal pallidal target in deep brain stimulation for Parkinson’s disease: A single-center retrospective review
Objective: To characterize globus pallidus internus (GPi) deep brain stimulation (DBS) active contact location at one-year post-op for Parkinson’s disease (PD) patients at our center.…Periventricular hyperintensities and axial symptom of Parkinson’s disease
Objective: To investigate which area of white matter hyperintensities (WMH) is associated with motor symptom of Parkinson’s disease (PD) independently of dopaminergic depletion. Background: WMH…Alteration to Basal Ganglia Morphology in Freezing of Gait in Parkinson’s Disease
Objective: To characterize the subcortical grey matter adaptations related to Freezing of Gait in Parkinson’s Disease (PD). Background: Owing to its connections with motor, cognitive…Brain structural and functional changes associated with frequent falls in Parkinson’s disease
Objective: We investigated brain structural and functional changes associated with falls. Background: Gait and balance disorders are one of the common clinical features of Parkinson’s…Morphometric changes in Parkinson’s disease manifesting freezing of gait
Objective: To study structural Gray Matter (GM) and White Matter (WM) changes in Parkinson’s Disease (PD) patients with Freezing of Gait (FOG). Background: FOG is…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…Selective activation of excitatory cell groups in the medial medulla differentially affects spatial-temporal gait parameters
Objective: To study the role of excitatory neurons in the ventromedial medulla in gait using Designer Receptors Exclusively Activated by Designer Drugs. Background: The medial…Relationship between freezing and pedunculopontine nucleus’ size in Parkinson’s disease: Semi quantitative analysis based on MRI with modified FGATIR sequence
Objective: The aim of this study was to determine the possible relation between pedunculopontine nucleus' size (PPN) and occurrence of freezing in Parkinson's disease (PD).…
