Pain-motor integration in the primary motor cortex in Parkinson’s disease
Objective: To investigate pain-motor integration experimentally in patients with Parkinson's disease (PD), with and without chronic pain. Background: Although chronic pain is a common non-motor…Behavioral and neuroimaging effects of LSVT-BIG and conventional physiotherapy in Parkinson’s disease
Objective: To evaluate (1) the changes of non-motor symptoms such as depression, sleep disorders, pain and cognitive deficits in PD by practicing LSVT BIG therapy…MRI signatures of the brain of Parkinson’s disease and idiopathic REM sleep behavioral disorder subjects
Objective: To characterize brain microstructural integrity, iron loads, and functional connectivity in 10 idiopathic rapid eye movement sleep behavior disorder (RBD), 10 Parkinson's disease (PD)…Changes of brain structure and cognition in individuals with possible prodromal Parkinson’s disease
Objective: Investigating brain structure and cognition in healthy individuals with positive Parkinson's disease (PD) risk markers (hyposmia, increased hyperechogenic area of the substantia nigra). Background:…The role of striatal dopaminergic terminals in early de novo PD patients with speech impairment
Objective: To assess the role of striatal dopaminergic terminals in early de novo (untreated) Parkinson's disease (PD) patients with impairment of speech. Background: Dopamine has…Functional deficits during response inhibition improve after dopaminergic medication for Parkinson
Objective: To study the neural correlates of impulse control in Parkinson's disease (PD) patients before and after the start of dopamine replacement therapy (follow up…Diffusion tensor imaging of corticospinal tract, cingulum and corpus callosum in Parkinson’s disease (PD) patients
Objective: To evaluate white matter tractography of the corticospinal tract, cingulum and corpus callosum in PD. Background: Considering the variability of symptoms of Parkinson's disease…Movement related beta oscillatory activity during self-paced wrist movement in the human subthalamic nucleus
Objective: To explore voluntary movement related neuronal activity in the subthalamic nucleus in patients with Parkinson's disease (PD). Background: How the human basal ganglia processes…Pallidal DBS and pallidotomy alter cortical synchronization in Parkinson’s disease
Objective: To investigate electrophysiologic characteristics of sensorimotor cortical activity in patients with Parkinson's disease (PD) undergoing globus pallidus deep brain stimulation (GPi DBS) or radiofrequency…Recruitment of single subthalamic neurons for kinematic control of hand and feet movements employs different strategies
Objective: To understand single unit recruitment strategies for upper and lower extremity movements in the human subthalamic nucleus (STN), which is the main target for…
