A national case study of virtual care visits for Parkinson’s disease (RACE-PD): Interim assessment of participant and investigator experiences
Objective: RACE-PD is a case series that aims to assess the feasibility and utility of a national program providing individuals with Parkinson's disease (PD) a…Non-motor symptoms (NMS) as a determinant of caregiver burden in a cohort of older patients with Parkinson’s disease (PD)
Objective: The main goal of this study was to assess the impact of NMS burden and severity on Caregiver Burden in a cohort of older…Vascular degeneration in Parkinson’s disease
Objective: To determine the role vascular degeneration in human Parkinson's disease (PD). Background: We have previously reported endothelial degeneration in the PD. Current study examined…Oligomeric and phosphorylated alpha-synuclein as potential CSF biomarkers for Parkinson’s disease
Objective: To explore the potential use of alpha-synuclein (α-syn) species as candidate biomarkers for Parkinson's disease (PD).
