Physical Activity Levels and Demographic Characteristics in Individuals with Huntington’s Disease: Insights from the ENROLL-HD Database in an Argentinian Movement Disorder Center
Objective: To assess PA levels in individuals enrolled in the ENROLL-HD database, and compare demographic characteristics between PE practitioners, and non-practitioners Background: Neurological disorders have been…Huntington’s Disease Pathogenesis, Molecular Factors, and Potential for Combinatorial Therapies: A Focus on BDNF and NMDA Receptor Therapies
Objective: This paper outlines current therapeutic options for HD, and ultimately suggests taking a combinatorial therapeutic approach to slow HD progression by simultaneously treating multiple…Localisation of distinct brain networks in premanifest and manifest Huntington’s disease
Objective: To map the brain networks underlying Huntington’s Disease (HD), testing whether there are distinct networks involved in premanifest and manifest disease stages. Background: HD…Autoimmune Chorea. Therapy with Monoclonal Antibodies: Experimental and Clinical Approach
Objective: Autoimmune chorea (AICh) resulting from the appearance of paraneoplastic antibodies in response to development of malignant tumors of various localization. Sydenham's rheumatic chorea, described…Longitudinal imaging of regional volumes, presynaptic terminals and glucose metabolism in brains of people with early Huntington’s disease
Objective: To compare the sensitivity of 11C‑UCB‑J PET, 18F-FDG PET and volumetric MRI for detection of longitudinal brain changes in early Huntington’s Disease (HD). Background:…Levodopa-induced dyskinesia and Huntington’s chorea: link to current motor control theories
Objective: Determine if there is a motor control hypothesis that could explain movement kinematics of Huntington’s disease (HD) chorea and Parkinson’s disease (PD) levodopa-induced dyskinesia…Pallidal activity as a driving force of choreic movements
Objective: To investigate the mechanisms of neuronal discharges of the globus pallidus which drive choreic movements. Background: Synchronized bursts and the low discharge rates of…Effects of cerebellar cTBS on motor symptoms in Huntington’s disease: a feasibility and pilot study
Objective: To evaluate the feasibility and preliminary clinical effects of a single session of cerebellar cTBS in patients with Huntington's disease (HD) with mild-moderate motor…Reversible hemichorea due to contralateral anterior cerebral artery territory hypoperfusion
Objective: We report hemichorea due to hypoperfusion of the contralateral anterior cerebral artery (ACA) territory (including caudate nucleus and its connections) that reversed with revascularization.…Neural oscillations modulation during working memory in premanifest and early Huntington’s disease
Objective: To test whether high-density electroencephalography (hdEEG) coupled to source localization allows for the identification of neuronal oscillations in specific frequency bands in patients with…
