The relationship between asymmetric dopamine loss and cognition in early Parkinson’s disease patients from PPMI study
Objective: To explore the role of motor asymmetry on cognition in early stage Parkinson’s disease (PD). Background: PD is characterized by asymmetric motor onset which…Agreement Between Patients and Informants on the Penn Parkinson’s Daily Activity Questionnaire
Objective: To assess agreement between Parkinson’s disease (PD) patients (PT) and knowledgeable informants (KI) on the Penn Parkinson’s Daily Activities Questionnaire-15 (PDAQ-15). To explore conditions…Effect of deep brain stimulation on clinical outcome in Parkinson’s disease patients with different genetic status
Objective: The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of the genetic status on the clinical outcome of PD patients undergoing DBS. Background:…Resistance to Parkinson’s disease among LRRK2 mutation carriers is associated with higher plasma levels of urate but not its purine precursors
Objective: To determine whether plasma purine concentrations differ between people with Parkinson's disease (PD) and matched controls among carriers of pathogenic mutations in Leucine-Rich Repeat…Nurr1 gene: A new research target for Parkinson’s disease
Objective: The objective of our study is to determine if Nurr1 gene, a transcription factor essential for dopamine (DA) neuron development and survival, is a…
