Application of a Qualitative Model to Elucidate the Role of the Alpha-Synuclein System in Parkinson’s Disease.
Objective: Objective: In order to improve the understanding of the alpha-synuclein system and its role in Parkinson’s disease, Elan and Rosa collaborated in the development…Extended “Timed Up and Go”: A Clinical Indicator of Cognitive State in Parkinson’s Disease?
Objective: To evaluate an extended Timed Up and Go (extended-TUG) as a potential holistic indicator of Parkinson’s disease; hypothesised to correlate closely with disease severity…APOE4+ status increases rate of longitudinal cognitive decline in Parkinson Disease patients with low CSF Aβ42
Objective: To determine if the presence of APOEɛ4 allele (APOE4+) predicts longitudinal cognitive decline in Parkinson’s disease (PD) patients with low CSFAβ42 Background: Cognitive impairment…Anosognosia for Levododopa-induced Dyskinesias in PD – Frequency
Objective: To evaluate the factors and possible mechanisms associated with anosognosia for LIDs in patients with PD using movie presentations and mirrored self-images. Background: Levodopa-induced…Apomorphine infusion does not impair cognitive action control in Parkinson’s disease
Objective: We sought to verify that apomorphine infusion did not alter cognitive action control.We sought to verify that apomorphine infusion did not alter cognitive action…Compulsive sexual behaviour in Parkinson’s disease is associated with higher doses of levodopa
Objective: To assess whether compulsive sexual behaviour in individuals with PD is associated with higher doses of levodopa. Background: The lifetime prevalence of compulsive sexual behaviour…Tremor as the first symptom reported by Parkinson’s disease patients is a predictor of future motor subtype and levodopa-induced dyskinesia.
Objective: To better delineate risk profiles for the development of levodopa-induced dyskinesia is an important effort that can help understand this phenomenon and could impact…Movement Disorders in Demyelinating Diseases: a retrospective review from a tertiary academic center.
Objective: To review the prevalence of movement disorders (MD) in patients with demyelinating diseases (DD) treated at a tertiary academic center and to characterize their therapeutic response…Neural correlates of movement sequence kinematics in substantia nigra dopaminergic cells
Objective: To develop a new behavioral task for assessment of mice forelimb movements, and evaluate the substantia nigra pars compacta dopaminergic cells’ (SNpc) correlates of…Characterizing task-based acoustic variations of vowels in Parkinson’s disease: Preliminary data
Objective: This is a pilot study that examines changes in the acoustic characteristics of vowels across speaking tasks for individuals with Parkinson’s disease (PD). The…
