Gender-age features of autonomic heart rhythm disturbances in Parkinson’s disease patients
Objective: To determine the gender differences and age-dependent features of autonomic heart rhythm disturbances in patients with Parkinson's disease (PD). Background: Autonomic heart rate failures…Brain metabolic profile changes reflect subtle pathological alterations in different murine models of Parkinson’s disease
Objective: Understanding early, and therefore often subtle, disease processes in Parkinson's disease (PD) is essential for the development of disease modifying cures. But in patients,…Apathy phenotype in Parkinson’s disease: Motor and non-motor features
Objective: To evaluate whether apathy is associated with specific motor and non-motor features in patients with Parkinson's disease. Background: In a previous clinical cohort study…Associations between cerebrospinal fluid proteins and cytokines in Parkinson’s disease
Objective: To investigate the relationship between cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) proteins and cytokines, and their correlation with clinical measures in PD. Background: Several studies have investigated…Micro-RNA in cerebrospinal fluid as a biomarker for early diagnosis, differential diagnosis and prognostic marker in Parkinson’s disease
Objective: This study aims to identify specific micro-RNA (miRNA) patterns in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) of patients with Parkinson's disease (PD) and to compare them with…Protein levels of SV2A and VGLUT1 in brain tissue from patients with Parkinson’s disease, dementia with Lewy bodies and Alzheimer’s disease
Objective: The objective of this study was to investigate whether SV2A and/or VGLUT1 are suitable as markers for synaptic degeneration in neurodegenerative disorders and could…Vagus nerve stimulation as a novel treatment strategy for Parkinson’s disease
Objective: To assess the therapeutic potential of chronic vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) to attenuate the behavioral and neuronal deficits observed in Parkinson's disease (PD) by…Non-motor symptoms profiles in UK white Caucasian and Asian as well as overseas Thai and East Indian patients with Parkinson’s disease
Objective: To compare motor and non-motor symptoms (NMS) in white Caucasian (WC) and Asian patients with Parkinson's disease (PwP) living in the UK as well…Diffusion tensor imaging biomarkers of nigrostriatal neurodegeneration in early Parkinson’s disease
Objective: Identify magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) biomarkers of nigrostriatal neurodegeneration in early-stage drug-naïve Parkinson's disease (PD). Background: Diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) is an MRI technique…Glucocerebrosidase activity in a cohort of PD patients
Objective: To evaluate glucocerebrosidase (GCase) activity in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) of a cohort of 53 PD patients with and without GBA mutations and…
