Eye Movements during Reading in Parkinson’s Disease: A Pilot Study
Objective: To characterize eye movements during reading in patients with moderate stage Parkinson's disease (PD) with respect to medication state and cognitive ability. Background: Many…Working memory maintenance and manipulation in Parkinson’s disease: An fMRI study
Objective: This study aimed to investigate the neural correlates of different working memory (WM) aspects in Parkinson's disease (PD) patients using a newly designed WM…Role of Sex on Cholinergic Activity and Attention in Parkinson’s disease
Objective: To determine whether cholinergic activity related to attention differs in males versus females in people with Parkinson’s disease (PwPD). Background: Although cholinergic activity is…Relationship between dopaminergic asymmetric degeneration and attentional resources in Parkinson’s disease
Objective: To investigate the relationship between the asymmetric dopaminergic degeneration and the attentional resources in a group of patients with PD. Background: In order to…Neuropsychological and clinical assessment for the differential diagnosis of patients with PDD vs. DLB
Objective: To explore the role of clinical neuropsychological tools in Parkinson’s disease-dementia (PDD) vs. dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB). First, to define the feasibility of…Neuropsychological Assessment of Cognitive Dysfunction in Parkinson’s Disease: A Comparison of Four Screening Instruments
Objective: To compare four different neuropsychological screening instruments (DemTect, Mattis Dementia Rating Scale (MDRS), Mini Mental State Examination (MMSE) and Parkinson Neuropsychometric Dementia Assessment (PANDA))…Neurocognitive outcomes of STN-DBS in patients with Parkinson’s disease: A 10-year review of local experiences in Hong Kong
Objective: The purpose of the study was to determine the long-term neurocognitive outcomes of STN-DBS for PD. Background: Cognitive disturbances is one of the most…Transcranial magnetic stimulation increases cognition globally and longitudinally in Parkinson’s disease
Objective: Using intermittent “theta burst” transcranial magnetic stimulation (iTBS) over the left dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC) to assess the potential of long-term improvements in cognitive…Sex Differences in Cognitive Performance in De-Novo Parkinson’s Disease
Objective: To investigate whether sex affects cognition in patients with de-novo Parkinson’s disease (PD). Background: Sex differences in PD are common and may be due…A bayesian network approach for prediction of future dementia in Parkinson’s disease
Objective: To predict subsequent development of Parkinson’s dementia using parameters which can be easily obtained in a regular clinic visit using a machine learning approach.…
