Fractionating apathy – Effort, reward and impulsivity mechanisms in Parkinson’s and Huntington’s disease
Objective: Refine understanding of the processes underpinning apathy in neurodegenerative disease, by identifying 1) objective measures to assess apathy; 2) parcellating the broad construct of…Neuropsychological correlates of impulse control disorders and punding in Parkinson´ s disease
Objective: To investigate the relationship between cognitive deficits, Impulse Control Disorders (ICDs) and Punding in Parkinson's disease (PD). Background: The neuropsychological correlates of ICDs and…Reward insensitivity differentiates apathy from depression in Parkinson’s disease
Objective: To determine if a potential cause of apathy in Parkinson's disease (PD) might be insensitivity to rewards, establish if this differentiates apathy from depression…Visual hallucinations and executive dysfunction in Charles Bonnet syndrome: Preliminary findings from SHAPED
Objective: To establish whether frontal cognitive deficits associated with visual hallucinations in Parkinson's disease (PD) are also present in patients with Charles Bonnet Syndrome (CBS).…Profile of depressive symptoms in Parkinson’s disease patients and a population-based elderly cohort
Objective: To examine the prevalences and profiles of depressive symptoms in Parkinson's disease (PD) patients and population-based control groups by using the Beck depression inventory.…Subthalamic neurons encode reward hypersensitivity and loss hyposensitivity in Parkinson’s patients with impulse control disorders
Objective: 1) To determine if a subset of subthalamic nucleus (STN) neurons in Parkinson's disease (PD) patients modulate activity in response to valence-related stimuli (reward/punishment)…Impulse control disorder in early Parkinson’s disease: Follow-up study
Objective: To assess frequency of impulse control disorder (ICD) in a cohort of patients with early stage of Parkinson's disease (PD), to analyze clinical and…Technology use and impulse control disorders (ICDs) in patients with Parkinson’s disease (PD)
Objective: To ascertain the prevalence of problematic technology use (Technology-related ICDs, Tech-ICDs) in patients with PD. Background: ICDs are a known complication of PD drugs…Phenotypic spectrum and longitudinal outcome of Parkinson’s disease patients with psychosis
Objective: We studied the phenotypic characteristics of psychosis in PD patients, their associated risk factors and assessed their long term outcome. Background: Psychosis in PD…Impulse control disorder in Parkinson’s disease is not related to lower cognitive performance
Objective: To compare cognitive performance in patients with and without Impulse Control Disorders (ICD) according to MDS recommendations for Parkinson's disease (PD) Mild Cognitive Impairment…
