The effect of istradefylline on mood disorders in Parkinson’s disease
Objective: The effectiveness of istradefylline for treatment of mood disorders in patients with Parkinson's disease (PD) was examined in an open-label trial. Background: Depression is…Fatigue in Parkinson’s disease and its relation with disease duration and treatment
Objective: Identify the presence of fatigue in a population of PD patients, establishing its association with disease duration and treatment. Background: Fatigue is one of…Higher levels of physical activity is associated with fewer non-motor symptoms in early Parkinson’s disease: a 1-year follow-up study
Objective: To examine the physical activity (PA) level in early Parkinson’s disease (PD) patients and its association with non-motor symptoms (NMS). Background: Lower PA is…Urodynamic study to distinguish multiple system atrophy from Parkinson’s disease
Objective: To evaluate differences in urodynamic findings between multiple system atrophy (MSA) and Parkinson’s disease (PD) and identify the utility of urodynamic parameters for the…Prevalence and factors related to orthostatic hypotension and orthostatic intolerance in recently-diagnosed, drug-naïve Parkinson’s disease patients
Objective: To explore the prevalence and factors related to orthostatic hypotension (OH) and orthostatic intolerance (OI) in recently diagnosed drug-naïve PD patients from the Parkinson’s…Influence of Cognitive Deficits and Tremor Severity of the Development of Depression in Nondemented Patients with Essential Tremor
Objective: The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between cognitive deficits and tremor severity with the development of depression in nondemented ET…The effect of dopaminergic therapy on functional connectivity in patients with Parkinson’s disease and visual hallucinations
Objective: To examine changes in functional connectivity in patients with Parkinson’s disease (PD) and visual hallucinations (VH) on and off dopaminergic medication. Background: Symptoms on…Motor and non-motor symptoms differences between Vascular Parkinsonism (VP) and Parkinson’s Disease (PD) patients in early stages
Objective: Compare motor and non-motor symptoms between VP and PD patients. Background: VP is usually described as “lower-body parkinsonism”, with early gait difficulties and postural…Adrenergic Receptor Modulation of Non-Motor Symptoms in Parkinson’s Disease
Objective: To analyze the correlation between the use of beta-blockers (BB) and the prevalence of non-motor symptoms in patients with Parkinson’s disease (PD). Background: In…Data quality, acceptability and reliability of the Movement Disorders Society – Non Motor Rating Scale (MDS-NMS)
