Neural mechanisms underlying step initiation failure in patients with Parkinson’s disease and freezing of gait
Objective: To investigate the neural mechanisms underlying gait initiation failure in Parkinson's disease patients with Freezing of Gait. Background: Freezing of Gait (FOG) is a…Comparison of DAT and DOPA PET tracer for assessing severity and progression in patients with Parkinson’s disease
Objective: The aims of this study were to quantify striatal uptake of 18F-DOPA and 11C-PE2I in the same group of PD patients, to assess the…Diagnostic reliability of clinical symptoms in patients with incomplete manifestation of the triad of parkinsonism compared to 18F-DOPA PET-CT MRI imaging
Objective: To describe the diagnostic reliability of the triad of clinical symptoms compared to the uptake of 18 F-DOPA PET-CT fusion MRI scan. To compare…The effect of an eight-week mindfulness training intervention on emotion related brain activation in people with Parkinson’s disease
Objective: The aim of the current study is to investigate the effect of an eight-week mindfulness training intervention on emotion related brain activation in people…Is the selection of stepping impaired in PD in ON state?
Objective: To compare the selection of stepping actions during a probability reaction time task in people with Parkinson's disease (PD) in the ON state with…Intraoperative localization of beta band and high-frequency oscillations within the subthalamic nucleus
Objective: To investigate whether beta band activity (13-30Hz) and high-frequency oscillations (150-400Hz) arise from the same spatial location within the subthalamic nucleus (STN) of Parkinson's…Detection of primary olfactory cortex dysfunction in early-stage Parkinson’s disease
Objective: To detect the functional changes of primary olfactory cortex (POC) in the early-stage Parkinson's disease (PD) using functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI). Background: Olfactory…Diagnosis and management of dementia with Lewy bodies: Influence of concomitant cerebrovascular disease
Objective: We assume that the cerebrovascular disease might influence on the course and clinical features of dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB). The aim of this…Relationship of MDS-UPDRS non-motor symptoms to cognitive functioning in patients with Parkinson’s disease
Objective: To evaluate the relationship among individual items from the MDS-UPDRS Part I and measures of cognitive functioning in patients with PD. Background: Non-motor symptoms…Dopaminergic drug management in Parkinson’s disease: Gait and language function show correlation during treatment
Objective: We examined the effects of dopaminergic medication adjustment on cognitive function in Parkinson's disease (PD) patients without apparent dementia (Mini-Mental State Examination score of…
