Does the dopaminergic pathway interfere with the sustained CSF tap test effect in normal-pressure hydrocephalus?
Objective: To discuss the possible dopaminergic pathway interference as a mechanism underlying the sustained benefit of the CSF tap test in NPH. Background: The sustained…The predictive potential of circular walking in prodromal Parkinson’s disease
Objective: This study aims to provide quantitative markers of prodromal motor symptoms of idiopathic Parkinson’s disease (PD) from circular walking assessment with a single body-fixed-sensor.…CSF tau reflects long-term outcome of patients with idiopathic normal pressure hydrocephalus: a longitudinal retrospective study.
Objective: To predict long-term clinical outcome of iNPH patients through a panel of neurodegeneration-related CSF biomarkers. Background: Idiopathic normal pressure hydrocephalus (iNPH) is a neurodegenerative…All that is gold does not glitter: SPG11 mimicking Westphal variant of Huntington’s disease
Objective: Our objective was to bring light into infrequent causes of gait disorders in children mimicking well-known diseases, specifically with relevant family background. Background: Hereditary…Clinical and genetic characterization of two Portuguese families with spinocerebellar ataxia 48
Objective: Genetic and phenotypic characterization of six patients from two families, with pathogenic variants on the STUB1 gene. Background: Biallelic pathogenic variants on the STUB1…Progressive Gait Disturbance presumed to be caused by idiopathic peripheral neuropathy: A case of Normal Pressure hydrocephalus.
Objective: Discuss the importance of gait phenomenology in identifying Normal Pressure Hydrocephalus. Background: Normal pressure hydrocephalus (iNPH) can present as a ‘magnetic gait’ but this…Non-motor network decoupling accompanies conversion to freezing of gait in Parkinson’s disease
Objective: To investigate the resting state connectivity in cortico-striatal-thalamo-cortical networks pre-conversion and pre- to post-conversion to Freezing of Gait in Parkinson’s disease. Background: Freezing of…Improving fall prediction in Parkinson’s disease: A machine-learning-based approach
Objective: To explore the prediction of falling in PD using a machine-learning-based approach. Background: The strongest predictor of falling in Parkinson’s disease (PD) is the…Gait and turning alterations in idiopathic REM sleep behavioral disorder and early Parkinson’s disease: a cross-sectional study with mobile health technology
Objective: The aim of the study was investigate the differences in performances of gait and turning under supervised conditions in healthy controls (HC), idiopathic REM…Daytime Sleepiness Effects on Motor Symptoms in De Novo Parkinson’s Disease
Objective: To investigate whether daytime sleepiness in newly diagnosed Parkinson’s disease (PD) patients predicts future dependency. Background: Excessive daytime sleepiness (EDS) is one of the…
