The prevalence and features of REM sleep behaviour disorder in Essential Tremor: a polysomnography study
Objective: To assess the prevalence and characteristics of video-polysomnography (PSG) confirmed REM sleep behaviour disorder (RBD) in patients with Essential Tremor (ET). Background: ET has…Health associated quality of life (HAQL) and humor/cognitive complaints predict mortality in Parkinson’s disease (PD)
Objective: To assess the value of motor (MS), non-motor symptoms (NMS), HAQL and activities of daily living (ADL) for predicting mortality in PD. Background: Parkinson’s…Anxiety and dopaminergic stimulation in patients with Parkinson´s disease.
Objective: To report two patients with Parkinson disease and describe the response of this non motor symptom to dopaminergic therapy. Background: Anxiety is frequent comorbidity…Longitudinal Cortical Changes Associated with Apathy in Parkinson’s Disease
Objective: To follow clinical/cognitive and cortical thickness (CT) changes in Parkinson’s disease (PD) patients with stable apathy (PD-sAp), without apathy (PD-noAp), and patients who developed…Deceleration capacity of heart rate: is cardiac vagal modulation impaired in idiopathic Parkinson’s disease?
Objective: Assessment of cardiac vagal modulation through the analysis of heart rate deceleration capacity (DC) in idiopathic Parkinson’s disease (PD). Background: Cardiac autonomic dysfunction manifests…(Not) sleeping with the enemy: Cognitive correlates of nocturnal sleep disturbances in Parkinson’s disease
Objective: To evaluate cognitive correlates of nocturnal sleep dysfunction in patients with idiopathic Parkinson’s disease (PD). Background: Sleep disturbances are among the most troublesome and…Characterization of the gastrointestinal dysfunction in the 6-hydroxydopamine rat model of Parkinson’s disease
Objective: To characterize the gastrointestinal (GI) phenotype in the 6-hydroxydopamine (6OHDA) rat model of Parkinson’s disease (PD). Background: GI dysfunction, such as prolonged GI transit…Olfactory Hallucinations as a Non-motor sign of Parkinson’s disease- a cross sectional study
Objective: To describe the prevalence and characteristics of Olfactory Hallucinations (OlfH) in patients with Parkinson’s Disease (PD) in a tertiary movement clinic. Background: Hallucinations are…Cognitive Processes That Indirectly Effect Olfactory Dysfunction in Parkinson’s Disease
Objective: Investigate cognitive mechanisms contributing to olfactory dysfunction in Parkinson’s disease. Background: Accurate early diagnosis of Parkinson’s disease is hampered by its long prodromal period…Gustatory Connectivity in Parkinson’s Disease Progression
Objective: To analyze the consistency of neural connections of the primary gustatory cortex (PGC), ranging from control group to progressive stages of Parkinson’s Disease (PD).…
