High levodopa plasma concentration in the acute levodopa challenge test predicts levodopa-induced dyskinesia in Parkinson’s disease
Objective: We aimed to investigate the correlation between levodopa pharmacokinetics and levodopa-induced dyskinesia (LID) in Parkinson’s disease (PD). Background: In patients with PD, pulsatile dopaminergic…Indication and long-term outcome of device-aided therapies in advanced Parkinson’s disease
Objective: We aimed to demonstrate the real world differences in a single center. Background: Number of deep brain stimulation (DBS) and levodopa-carbidopa continuous infusion gel…12-month therapeutic evaluation of l-dopa carbidopa ascorbic acid solution (LCAS) in a cohort of Advanced Parkinson’s disease in a North-Indian tertiary care hospital
Objective: To prescribe LCAS to Parkinson’s disease(PD) patients whose symptoms were not adequately controlled on tablet l-dopa and compare the UPDRS-(I,II,III,IV) ON & OFF on…Targeting the Receptor of Glial Cell Line-Derived Neurotrophic factor to treat Parkinson’s Disease
Objective: Our goal is to develop small molecules which support and restore nigrostriatal dopamine neurons by activation of glial cell line-derived-neurotrophic factor (GDNF) receptors. Background:…Characterization of novel alpha-synuclein aggregation model of Parkinson’s disease
Objective: To establish and characterize a robust alpha-synuclein (aSyn) aggregation pathology research model to allow efficient drug development platform for Parkinson's disease (PD). Background: PD…Neuroprotective and neuromodulatory properties of Olea purpurea leaf extract in MPTP intoxicated Parkinsonian rat model
Objective: This study aimed to isolate and characterize Olea purpurea leaf extract, and its neuroprotective effect in MPTP induced parkinsonian rat model. Background: Parkinson's disease (PD), also…Pill burden reduction in patients with advanced Parkinson’s disease: Comparative effectiveness of carbidopa/levodopa enteral suspension and Deep brain stimulation
Objective: To compare the real-world impact of initiating carbidopa/levodopa enteral suspension (CLES) or deep brain stimulation (DBS) on reducing pill burden (i.e. total number of…Efficacy and safety of levodopa-carbidopa intestinal gel (LCIG) for advanced Parkinson’s disease: a Turkish single-centre experience
Objective: This study is aimed to investigate the efficacy and adverse effect profile of LCIG among advanced PD patients from a Turkish movement disorder center.…Efficacy and safety of istradefylline in Parkinson’s disease patients with postural abnormality: Results from a multicenter, open-label study in Japan
Objective: To investigate the efficacy and safety of istradefylline for the treatment of postural abnormality in patients with Parkinson’s disease (PD). Background: Postural abnormality in…Levodopa induced changes of tongue body movements during speech production
Objective: This study investigates the influence of levodopa (L-dopa) on tongue body movements during speaking. Background: Parkinson’s disease (PD) is a neurodegenerative disorder affecting non-motor…
