PSP-like syndrome after aortic in adults (Mokri syndrome)
Objective: Characterize the syndrome resembling progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP) following aortic surgery. Background: Mokri, et al. reported a PSP-like syndrome seemingly triggered by aortic surgery…Vocal cords electromyography abnormalities in multiple system atrophy phenotypes: relevance for the pathophysiology of stridor
Objective: To define correlations between vocal cords electromyography (EMG) abnormalities and stridor in multiple system atrophy (MSA) phenotypes. Background: MSA is a rare α-synucleinopathy characterized…Cough sensitivity and aspiration pneumonia in Parkinson’s disease
Objective: We hypothesized that decreased cough sensitivity is crucial to the development of aspiration pneumonia in Parkinson’s disease (PD). We examined the relationship between cough…Deep mitochondrial sequencing in Parkinson’s disease reveals possible genetic modifiers of reduced penetrance in Parkin/PINK1 mutation carriers
Objective: To discover potential penetrance biomarkers in mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) for Parkin and PINK1 mutation carriers. Background: Biallelic mutations in Parkin and PINK1 are fully…Clinical comparison of right onset PD vs left onset PD
Objective: To compare clinical characteristics in right side onset versus left side onset of Parkinson’s disease and evaluate whether side of onset was predictive of…Clear versus conversational speech in Parkinson’s disease, progressive supranuclear palsy, and multiple system atrophy
Objective: This study aimed to investigate the speech behavior of PD, MSA, and PSP in clear vs. conversational speech task compared to healthy controls (HC).…Serum non-mercaptalbumin as a potential biomarker in Parkinson’s disease and related disorders
Objective: To investigate the oxidized albumin ratio, which is the redox ratio of human non-mercaptalbumin (HNA) to serum albumin (HSA) (%HNA), as a biomarker in…Relationship between functional exercise capacity and balance in patients with idiopathic Parkinson’s disease
Objective: The aim was to investigate the relationship between functional exercise capacity and balance in patients with idiopathic Parkinson's disease. Background: Parkinson's disease is a…Association between quality of life and physical functions in patients with idiopathic Parkinson’s disease
Objective: The aim was to investigate the association between health-related quality of life and physical functions in the patients with idiopathic Parkinson's disease (PD). Background:…Functional mobility tests and their relationship with disease stage in patients with Parkinson’s Disease
Objective: The main objective of this study is set as to determine the relationship between several Functional Mobility Tests (FMT) and disease stages in patients…
