Metabolic brain changes related to specific cognitive impairment in non-demented Parkinson’s disease patients
Objective: To measure the expression of the Parkinson's disease related cognitive pattern (PDCP) in 18F-FDG-PET brain images of Parkinson's disease (PD) patients and healthy controls…Dysphagia in early stage Huntington’s disease (HD) – Pilot observations from a multimodal imaging study
Objective: To assess the central neural control of swallowing in HD patients with mild dysphagia using a multimodal imaging approach combining qualitative and quantitative swallowing…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…Striatal molecular alterations in Huntington’s disease gene expansion carriers: A systematic review and meta-analysis of PET studies
Objective: To systematically examine the evidence of striatal molecular alterations in premanifest and manifest Huntington's disease gene expansion carriers (HDGECs) as measured by Positron emission…Single-subject FDG PET patterns and cognitive dysfunctions in Parkinson’s disease
Objective: To evaluate [18]FDG-PET single-subject perfusion patterns in Parkinson's disease (PD) patients and their relationship with cognitive dysfunction and progression during five years of follow-up.…Tau pathology in Huntington’s disease: A brief in vivo PET-imaging report
Objective: To assess feasibility of measuring pathological tau deposition in patients with Huntington's disease (HD) using [18F]-AV-1451 (f.k.a. T807) PET. Background: HD is a progressive…Participation in cognitively-stimulating activities and computer use are associated with better cognitive performance in Parkinson’s disease independent from nigrostriatal dopaminergic and cortical cholinergic degenerations
Objective: To investigate the relationship between times spent with cognitively stimulating activities and cognitive functions in Parkinson's disease (PD) while accounting for the degree of…Treatment of lipopolysaccharide-induced parkinsonism
Objective: This single case report of levodopa-responsive parkinsonism, caused by an accidental systemic contamination with 10 microgram lipopolysaccharides (LPS) from Salmonella minnesota, describes the treatment…THK-5351 tau-tracer uptake in patients with clinically diagnosed progressive supranuclear palsy
Objective: The objective of our study is to investigate characteristics of THK-5351 binding in patients with clinically diagnosed progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP) and correlate tau-tracer…Staging of cognitive impairment: Validation of a novel cognitive score with [18F]FDG-PET
Objective: To provide insight into the nature of cognitive deterioration and Parkinson's disease dementia (PDD) and to validate a novel cognitive score (also submitted for…
