The cognitive profiles differ among freezing of gait subtypes in Parkinson’s disease
Objective: Analyze differences in cognitive profiles among freezing of gait (FOG) subtypes in Parkinson’s disease (PD). Background: FOG in PD has been shown to be…Study on the effect of levodopa administration on serum zinc levels in Parkinson’s disease patients
Objective: Since zinc-chelating action of levodopa has been reported in the past, we measured serum zinc level in patients with Parkinson's disease (PD) at our…Creutzfeld Jacob disease presenting with functional-appearing, bizarre movements without significant cognitive impairment
Objective: To report unusual presentation of Creutzfeld Jacob disease (CJD) with bizarre movements and functional characteristics. Background: Prion disease is most commonly due to CJD…Tongue Myokymia and Earache as a unique presentation Associated with Local Tongue Pathology: A Case Report and Review of Literature
Objective: Here we report a rare case of tongue carcinoma presenting by abnormal movements in the tongue in form of myokymia, and Earache. Background: Fasciculations…Pilot testing of the Integrated Parkinson’s Disease Care Network: feasibility, efficacy outcomes and cost description analysis
Objective: To evaluate a new model of care delivery in PD, the Integrated Parkinson’s disease Care Network (IPCN), in terms of implementation, health-related outcomes, patient/care…Objective quantifiable assessment of nocturnal movements in patients with Parkinson’s disease using a wearable sensor
Objective: We aimed to explore the relationship between impaired bed mobility, disease severity, and other factors putatively related to NH. Background: Nocturnal hypokinesia (NH) is…Systematic Assessment of 10 diagnostic marker candidates in biological fluids for Parkinson’s disease
Objective: To validate in serum and/or cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) diagnostic biomarker candidates identified from a systematic literature search including markers on axonal and synaptic integrity,…Trends in first line therapy for PD in Wales: A 16 year observational study
Objective: To examine the changes in first line therapy of newly diagnosed Parkinson’s patients between 2000 and 2016 in Wales. Background: There have been several…Cultural bias in performance of motor tasks? Comparison between Japanese and German healthy adults
Objective: To evaluate the cross-cultural applicability of an instrumental assessment of motor function by comparing healthy adult German and Japanese cohorts. Background: Device-based quantitative assessment…Wearable versus marker-free technologies: does it matter for clinical gait analysis?
Objective: To compare wearable sensor-based and marker-less 3D video-based gait analysis in two neurodegenerative disorders associated with gait dysfunction. Background: Quantitative gait analysis supports diagnosis…
