Feasibility and preliminary efficacy of a telehealth approach to group tango instruction for people with Parkinson’s disease
Objective: To determine the feasibility and preliminary efficacy of group adapted tango class for individuals with Parkinson's disease (PD) taught through telehealth technology. Background: Group…Blindfolded balance training in patients with Parkinson’s disease: A sensory-motor strategy to improve the gait
Objective: Recent evidence suggested that the use of treadmill training may improve gait parameters, such as gait speed and stride length. Visual deprivation could engage…Objective measures of Parkinsonian motor symptoms using a continuously worn smartwatch
Objective: To determine whether smartwatch sensor data correlates with clinician-measured Parkinson's disease symptoms. Background: Data collected with smartwatches could be used for long-term, continuous assessment…Utilization and longitudinal impact of amantadine use in Parkinson’s disease. National Parkinson Foundation (NPF) QII registry
Objective: To evaluate baseline predictors and longitudinal impact of amantadine use in Parkinson's disease (PD). Background: There is preclinical data that amantadine has neuroprotective properties,…Pathological findings from two Parkinson’s disease patients after intraputaminal GDNF infusion
Objective: To describe the postmortem findings from two patients who underwent intraputaminal infusion of glial-derived neurotrophic factor (GDNF). Background: GDNF has been shown to have…Fox insight wear ecosystem: using mobile technology and cloud-based computing to support PD research
Objective: To enable a simple strategy for the continuous collection and analysis of sensory data from Parkinson's disease (PD) patients that can increase the effectiveness…Rasagiline treatment for sleep disorders in Parkinson’s disease (RaSPar) – Double-blinded, randomized, placebo-controlled, placebo run-in-phase, polysomnography clinical trial
Objective: To study the effects of Rasagiline on sleep disturbances measured by polysomnographic (PSG) evaluation of sleep efficacy and secondary measures as other sleep variables,…Reflex saccades changes can estimate long-term symptom progression in DBS STN and MED Parkinson’s disease patients (PD)
Objective: The aim of this study was to evaluate the impact of STN DBS on RS parameters in PD. We have compared disease progression in…Biseptol a new antiParkinsonian agent?
Objective: To evaluate the possible effect of combined intake of levodopa/carbidopa and trimethoprim/sulfamethoxazole on the duration of ON/OFF periods in a PD patient. Background: Drug…Body position during sleep in patients with Parkinson’s disease (PD): A sensor-based analysis
Objective: To identify the body position during sleep in PD patients in comparison to their spouses by using multisite wearable inertial sensors. Background: Nocturnal hypokinesia…
