Validation of the Movement Disorder Society criteria for the diagnosis of 4R-tauopathies
Objective: To validate the accuracy of the newly proposed Movement Disorder Society diagnostic criteria for progressive supranuclear palsy (MDS-PSP criteria, Höglinger et al., 2017) to…Does automated analysis of repeat DaTscan imaging aid diagnosis in suspected Lewy body disorders?
Objective: To establish if repeat SPECT imaging, using automated quantitative analysis, aids diagnosis in suspected Lewy Body Disorders (LBD). Background: Patients with suspected LBD are…Cortical thickness analysis in Parkinson’s disease with urinary symptoms
Objective: This study aimed to identify the significant region which can be related to urinary symptoms in Parkinson’s disease using correlation analysis between non-motor symptoms…Neuromelamin-MRI in patients with Pure Autonomic Failure
Objective: To assess the utility of neuromelanin-MRI (NM-MRI) methods in a prodromal alpha-synuclein disorder, Pure Autonomic Failure (PAF). Background: PAF is a peripheral alpha-synucleinopathy (AS)…Prevalence and predisposing factors of Parkinson disease: A barangay community-based study in Quezon, Philippines
Objective: The researchers aim to determine the prevalence of the Parkinson Disease in a locale and explore the possible predisposing factors on the development of…Pharmacokinetics of ABBV-951 Following 24-Hour Continuous Subcutaneous Infusion to Arm, Abdomen and Thigh
Objective: Characterize levodopa pharmacokinetics (PK) and safety/tolerability of ABBV-951 in healthy volunteers at 3 different subcutaneous (SC) infusion sites: Arm, Abdomen and Thigh Background: As…Parkinsonism and rapidly progressive dementia secondary to free-living ameba
Objective: Present an original case description of a patient with amebic meningoencephalitis. Background: Parkinsonism could be caused by degenerative disorders, brain injuries, drugs, toxins, and…Motor and Non-Motor Symptom Burden in Parkinsonian and Cerebellar Phenotypes of Probable MSA
Objective: We aimed to assess the disease severity, non-motor symptoms and cardiac autonomic dysfunction in MSA phenotypes. Background: Multiple system atrophy (MSA) is an adult-onset,…Abnormal metabolic brain network in multiple system atrophy and progressive supranuclear palsy: a replication on a new European cohort
Objective: To identify characteristic metabolic brain patterns specific for multiple system atrophy (MSA) and progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP) in a new cohort of patients and…A Lewy body disease of widely confirmed Lewy bodies in the cerebral cortexes including the occipital lobe without pathological changes in the hippocampal CA2/3 region
Objective: We present Lewy body disease (LBD) showing unique neuropathological findings which are widely recognized Lewy bodies (LBs) in the cerebral cortexes including the occipital…
