Neuromelanin Imaging and Midbrain Volumetry in Progressive Supranuclear Palsy and Parkinson’s Disease
Objective: Using neuromelanin-sensitive magnetic resonance imaging (NM-MRI) and midbrain volumetry, we analyzed differences and relationships between nigral degeneration and midbrain atrophy in PSP and PD…Long Term Response to L-dopa in Parkinson Disease
Objective: To assess the long-term effectiveness of levodopa in Parkinson’s disease (PD) patients. Background: To date, levodopa continues to be the most efficacious drug in…Objective Predictors of ‘Early Tolerance’ to Ventral Intermediate nucleus of thalamus DBS In Essential Tremor Patients
Objective: To identify pre-operative clinical and computerized spiral analysis characteristics that may help ascertain which patients with Essential Tremor (ET) will exhibit ‘early tolerance’ to…Integrated Complimentary Yoga and Ayurveda Treatment Confers Significant Benefits in PD Patients
Objective: The present study was carried out to evaluate the efficacy of integrated complimentary Yoga & Ayurveda treatment in improving the motor symptoms and also…Variation in the L-dopa motor response in pathologically confirmed Parkinson’s disease
Objective: To examine the L-dopa-response (improvement in motor symptoms) in published cases of pathologically confirmed Parkinson’s disease (PD). Background: L-dopa responsiveness supports the diagnosis of…Clinical effectiveness of a highly challenging balance training (HiBalance program) for Parkinson’s disease: A multi-center clinical effectiveness trial
Objective: To determine the effectiveness of the adapted HiBalance program on balance control and gait among people with mild-moderate PD when performed in multiple clinical…Effect of COMT-inhibitor in the clinical progression of Parkinson’s disease
Objective: We conducted this 2-year follow-up study to evaluate whether or not catechol-O-methyltransferase inhibitor (COMTI) has an impact on the progression or severity of Parkinson's…Effects of rTMS on three cortical areas in Parkinson’s Disease
Objective: To evaluate the role of rTMS over primary motor area, premotor area, supplementary motor area in Parkinsons Disease. Background: Parkinson’s disease (PD) presents with…Objective analysis of walking tremor in Parkinson’s disease: A spectrum of classical rest tremor?
Objective: To delineate objective characteristics of walking tremor in PD patients in relation to classical parkinsonian rest tremor with inertial sensors. Background: Tremors in PD…Switching from double-blind entacapone or placebo to open-label opicapone: NMSS results of the 1-year extension BIPARK-I study
Objective: To evaluate the impact on non-motor symptoms in levodopa-treated Parkinson’s disease (PD) patients who switched from placebo (PLC) or entacapone (ENT) to opicapone (OPC)…
