Vestibular evoked myogenic potentials as biomarkers for non-motor symptoms of Parkinson’s disease
Objective: To explore the relation between the non-motor symptoms (NMS) of PD and the involvement of brainstem through studying VEMPs. Background: Degeneration of several brainstem…Pallidal versus subthalamic stimulation for PD: Beyond the motor effects
Objective: To evaluate the effects of Deep Brain Stimulation(DBS) on non motor symptoms(NMS) in Parkinson's disease(PD) and compare the efficacy of pallidal(GPi) versus subthalamic(STN) stimulation.…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…Frequency and factors associated with neuropathic pain in patients with Parkinson’s disease
Objective: To determine the prevalence of neuropathic pain in PD and association between neuropathic pain, duration of PD, treatment with Levodopa, cumulative dose, non-motor symptoms…Behavioral and neuroimaging effects of LSVT-BIG and conventional physiotherapy in Parkinson’s disease
Objective: To evaluate (1) the changes of non-motor symptoms such as depression, sleep disorders, pain and cognitive deficits in PD by practicing LSVT BIG therapy…Clinical profile and outcome of hospitalized patients with Parkinson’s disease
Objective: In this study we explored the cause of hospitalization, clinical course and outcome among Parkinson's disease (PD) patients. Background: Patients with PD are frequently…Headache in patients with Parkinsons disease: Pilot study results
Objective: Investigate the prevalence and characteristics of headache in PD patients, acknowledge the existing relation within the predominant laterality of the headache and side of…Disease-related variables effect on depression and anxiety level in Parkinson’s patients
Objective: To evaluate correlations of depression and anxiety levels with motor symptoms, non-motor symptoms and pharmacological factors in Parkinson's disease (PD). Background: Depression and anxiety…Non-motor outcomes of subthalamic stimulation in Parkinson’s disease depend on the location of active contacts
Objective: To investigate the impact of active electrode contact location on non-motor outcomes in patients with Parkinson's disease (PD) and subthalamic nucleus (STN) deep brain…A new tool to measure the impact of deep brain stimulation on Parkinson’s disease patients: Development and validation of the deep brain stimulation impairment scale (DBS-IS)
Objective: To develop a questionnaire that measures impairments related to deep brain stimulation (DBS). Background: DBS has considerable influence on motor and non-motor symptoms in…
