Visual hallucinations in Parkinson´s disease and amyloid burden: 18F-Flutemetamol PET-MRI study
Objective: To compare amyloid distribution in patients with Parkinson´s disease (PD) with visual hallucinations (VH-p) and without (VH-n). Background: In patients with PD the prevalence…Profile and progression of cognitive deficits in Progressive Supranuclear Palsy, Multiple System Atrophy and Parkinson’s Disease
Objective: This study investigated neuropsychological tests most sensitive in differentiating progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP) from Parkinson’s disease (PD) and multiple system atrophy (MSA), and in…The Promise of Automation: Development and preliminary testing of a language-based machine learning algorithm in PD
Objective: The proposed work seeks to expand current machine learning algorithms in PD using both motor and language features to discriminate affected speakers from healthy…Severe hypomimia in drug naïve Parkinson´s disease patients may predict mild cognitive impairment
Objective: We aimed to analyze if hypomimia was associated with mild cognitive impairment in Parkinson´s disease (PD-MCI) and if it predicted cognitive decline. Background: Hypomimia…Procedural Memory Changes of Parkinson’s Disease Patients Post Participation in Boxing
Objective: Can participation in a Rock Study Boxing program improve procedural memory in people with Parkinson’s disease (PD)? Background: Procedural memory is important for daily…Verbal Disfluencies in Parkinson´s Disease Spoken Discourse as a Function of Syntax Complexity
Objective: To evaluate the effects of syntax complexity on the frequency of verbal disfluencies in individuals with PD and healthy controls (HC) during spontaneous speaking…Comparing motor and neuropathological features of Parkinson’s disease dementia and dementia with Lewy bodies
Objective: To compare motor and neuropathological features of Parkinson’s disease dementia (PDD) and dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB) and to determine clinical and neuropathological differences…Self-report of cognitive functional abilities is inaccurate in PD-MCI and PDD
Objective: Evaluate concordance between self-reported and performance-based measures of cognitive functional abilities in PD by cognitive class. Background: PD-specific cognitive functional questionnaires, the Penn Daily…Complement C3a receptor antagonist attenuates tau hyperphosphorylation via glycogen synthase kinase 3β signaling pathways
Objective: To investigate the role and mechanism of C3a receptor in okadaic acid（OA） induced SH-SY5Y cells tau hyperphosphorylation model Background: Neurofibrillary tangles aggregated from hyperphosphorylated…Visuospatial dysfunction correlates with severity of postural instability/gait disturbance symptoms in parkinson’s disease
Objective: Investigate the relationship between global and specific cognitive functions and PIGD symptoms in Parkinson’s disease Background: It is well known that cognition and motor…
