A rapid chemical-genetic screen utilising impaired movement phenotypes in caenorhabditis elegans
Objective: Development of a fast and unbiased screening method to identify C. elegans mutants with movement disabilities and drugs to improve impaired locomotion. Background: Identifying…Relationship between balance, trunk impairment and hand function in Parkinson’s disease
Objective: Our aim is to examine the relationship between balance, trunk impairment and hand function in patients with PD. Background: Parkinson's disease (PD) is the…A new test for the measuring hand functions in Parkinson’s disease: Psychometric evaluation of the squares test
Objective: The aim of the study was to determine reliability and validity of the ST in PD. Background: Parkinson's disease (PD) is affected hand functions…Effect of dopamine and L-3,4 – dihydroxyphenylalanine in treatment of experimental parkinsonism
Objective: To study effect of dopamine and L-3,4 - dihydroxyphenylalanine in treatment of experimental parkinsonism. Background: Prospects of treatment of Parkinson's disease are also closely…The role of active rehabilitation measures, for maintaining the quality of life of patients after stroke with movement disorders in the general practice conditions
Objective: Assessment of the impact of active rehabilitation measures on quality of life of patients after stroke with movement disorders in primary health care. Background:…Successful treatment of movement disorders after resection of midbrain cavernous malformations: Report of two cases
Objective: To evaluate the treatment of movement disorders which presented as a consequence of haemorrhage from midbrain cavernous malformations. Background: Few cases of movement disorders…Participant feedback in the PREDICT-PD study
Objective: To explore the underlying motivation behind participation in PREDICT-PD and whether this had an influence on later drop out from the study. Background: The…Fall status and stepping response: Individuals with PD are differently influenced by side-affected
Objective: To identify differences in compensatory stepping responses (CSR) between Parkinson's disease (PD) fallers and non-fallers in response to external perturbations. Specifically, to investigate if…Reliability of the sensory organization test to predict falls in individuals with Parkinson’s disease
Objective: To determine the ability of the Sensory Organization Test (SOT) to predict falls in individuals with Parkinson's disease (PD). Background: Individuals with PD are…A case of hemifacial spasm with a right-sided pontine meningioma that resolved with PICA loop vascular decompression surgery
Objective: To improve our understanding of the pathophysiology and etiology of hemifacial spasm (HFS). Background: HFS is involuntary unilateral contractions of the muscles innervated by…
