Parkinson’s Disease (PD) and predictors of Driving Cessation: Results from a 6-year Longitudinal Study and a systematic review of the literature
Objective: We sought to identify predictors of driving cessation among PD patients. Background: Motor and cognitive impairment of PD patients interfere with their driving ability.…Stop signal reaction time: A promising Diagnostic marker for Functional Cervical Dystonia
Objective: In the current study we explored the clinical utility of Stop Signal Reaction Time (SSRT) as a diagnostic marker for functional cervical dystonia (FCD).…Machine Learning (ML) Prediction of Parkinson’s Disease (PD) Risk and Nigral Neuron Density
Objective: To investigate associations between nigral neuron density and ML-based PD risk prediction. Background: Early identification of persons at high risk for developing PD is…Emotional processing and response times in Parkinson’s disease
Objective: The aim of this behavioural study was to test whether motor response is mainly driven by the emotional content of a picture or if…Visuomotor reaction time can predict IQ in children
Objective: This study investigated whether visuomotor reaction time in 5 year-old children predicts intelligence test scores in 8 year-old children using the longitudinal approach. Background:…The role of attention networks in walking in Parkinson’s disease
Objective: To better understand how different attention networks contribute to walking. Background: Parkinson’s disease (PD) is often characterized by effortful, fall-prone walking. PD can also…Motor Response Inhibition – A potential tool to determine optimum STN-DBS setting
Objective: To explore the possibility of using an automated bed side test of motor response inhibition - Stop Signal Reaction Time (SSRT) while optimizing DBS…Relationship of cognitive processing speed with postural stability in non-demented Parkinson’s disease patients
Objective: To measure in PD patients with normal cognitive screening the clinical and instrumental measures of postural stability (PS) and analyze their relationship with cognitive…Relationship between Age-related Frailty and Intra-individual Variability of Reaction Time in Healthy Seniors: Implications for Parkinson’s disease
Objective: To investigate the relationship between age-related frailty and intra-individual variability of reaction time in normal ageing people. Background: The neurobiological processes of normal aging…Exploring the utility of the ChulaPD intelligent Parkinson’s disease car to determine naturalistic driving ability in Parkinson’s disease patients: A pilot study of 10 patients
Objective: To examine the naturalistic driving performance in PD patients compared to controls and to determine if the PD patients showed diminished abilities. Background: Competence…
