Swallowing difficulties and Parkinson’s disease
Objective: To investigate whether swallowing difficulties are associated with presynaptic dopaminergic deficits, distinct clinical phenotypes, CSF biomarkers as well as whether they can predict motor…Speech difficulties are linked to striatal dopaminergic deficits and cognitive decline in early de novo patients with Parkinson’s disease
Objective: To investigate whether speech difficulties are associated with striatal dopaminergic deficits and whether are linked to progression of symptoms in early de novo patients…Resting state functional connectivity in PD patients with and without Freezing of gait
Objective: To investigate resting state functional connectivity (rsFC) abnormalities in patients with Parkinson's disease (PD), either with (PD-FOG) or without freezing of gait (PD no-FOG). …Longitudinal comparison of 11C-PE2I and 18F-DOPA PET for assessing severity and rate of disease progression in patients with Parkinson’s disease
Objective: To directly compare 18F-DOPA with a highly specific dopamine transporter radioligand 11C-PE2I, for the assessment of motor severity and rate of progression in Parkinson's…Serotonin–to–dopamine transporter ratios in Parkinson’s dyskinesias: the longitudinal study
Objective: This study was designed to detect whether in Parkinson’s disease (PD) the putaminal serotonin–over–dopamine transporter ratio has a threshold that is critical for the…18F-AV-1451 PET imaging in pre-dementia Parkinson’s disease
Objective: To describe cortical and subcortical 18F-AV-1451 binding in Parkinson’s disease patients with and without mild cognitive impairment (PD-MCI and PD-nonMCI). Background: The radioligand 18F-AV-1451…SPECT imaging of striatal DAT availability in Parkinson’s: changes over time and relevance to dyskinesias
Objective: This study was designed to explore in Parkinson’s disease (PD) the role of dopamine transporter (DAT)-specific single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) imaging as a…Action Observation Training Effects on Brain Structural and Functional Changes in Parkinson’s Disease Patients
Objective: To assess brain functional and structural changes following action observation training (AOT) associated with exercises of balance, gait, transfers and manual dexterity in Parkinson’s…Multicenter Validation of Disease- related Parkinson’s disease pattern with Resting State functional MRI
Objective: To validate Parkinson’s Disease-related network topography characterized with resting-state functional MRI (rs-fMRI) in two multicenter based cohorts of idiopathic Parkinson’s disease (IPD) patients. Background:…Diffusion tensor imaging changes in the corpus callosum and cognitive impairment in Parkinson’s disease
Objective: To evaluate diffusion characteristics of the corpus callosum in Parkinson’s disease (PD) patients with varying degrees of cognitive impairment using Diffusion Tensor Imaging (DTI).…
