    The interplay between cholinergic activity, attention, and turning in Parkinson’s disease

    R. Morris, D. Martini, G. Mcbarron, M. Mancini, F. Horak (Portland, OR, USA)

    Objective: Explore how cholinergic activity (measured by short latency afferent inhibition [SAI]) and attention relate to quality of turning performance over a week of daily…

    Fasciculations from a cholinesterase inhibitor

    W. Deeb (Gainesville, FL, USA)

    Objective: Present and discuss fasciculations in the setting of acetylcholinesterase inhibitors. Background: Specific acetylcholinesterase (AChE) inhibitors (e.g., donepezil, rivastigmine, galantamine) are the current first-line treatment…
