Altered brain dynamics in Parkinson’s disease patients treated by deep brain stimulation
Objective: The presented work explores electrophysiological changes in brain dynamics described by EEG microstates and the effect of deep brain stimulation (DBS) of subthalamic nucleus…IgG to neurotensin in blood of Parkinson’s disease patients
Objective: The aim of the study was measurement of IgG to NT in blood plasma of Parkinson's disease patients. Background: Neurotensin (NT) is a 13-amino-acid…Gait declines faster over time in people with Parkinson’s disease converting to a freezing of gait phenotype
Objective: To monitor gait progression in people with Parkinson’s disease (PwPD) who convert from a non-freezing (noFOG) to a freezing of gait (FOG) phenotype. Background:…Perceive: A data extraction and analysis toolbox for brain signals from sensing enabled deep brain stimulators
Objective: Develop an open source toolbox that facilitates data extraction, analysis, artifact correction and standardization for the DBS research community. Background: Novel sensing enabled implantable…Sleep Disorders in Normotensive Hydrocephalus
Objective: Objective of the work was to study the prevalence of sleep disorders, Rem Sleep Behaviour Disorder (RBD) and obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) in patients with NPH.…EEG power-spectra parametrization and cognitive ability in Parkinson’s disease
Objective: To parametrize EEG power-spectra and examine the association of periodic and aperiodic components with cognitive ability in Parkinson's disease (PD). Background: PD is associated…Gold and silver nanoparticle-based Localized Surface Plasmon Resonance Sensor (LSPR) for the detection of histidine as a potential biomarker in Parkinson’s Disease.
Objective: Previous literature has proven that histamine has a crucial role in the process of neuroinflammation in Parkinson's Disease (PD) . We can indirectly detect…Insights from skin biopsies: α-synuclein real-time quaking-induced conversion (RT-QuIC) in patients with Parkinson’s disease and multiple system atrophy
Objective: To characterize skin alpha-synuclein (α-syn) pathology in synucleinopathies as a potential tool for differential diagnosis. Background: Differential diagnosis of PD and MSA represents a…Hyperkinesia associated with tuberculous meningitis in children: report of 2 cases.
Objective: We present two pediatric patients with normal neurodevelopment, and incomplete vaccination schedule due to lack of BCG vaccine, who developed hyperkinesias secondary to tuberculous…‘A study of seven patients with Hemimasticatory spasm; barriers to treatment and outcomes of botulinum toxin’
Objective: To assess barriers to treatment and outcomes of botulinum toxin in patients treated for Hemimasticatory spasm Background: Hemimasticatory spasm (HMS) is a rare peripherally induced…
