Evaluation of Cortical Excitability in Huntington’s Disease and Parkinson’s Disease
Objective: To evaluate the cortical excitability difference in Huntington's disease (HD) and Parkinson's disease (PD) using paired-pulse transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS). Background: TMS is useful…What connectivity tells us about neurodegeneration in Huntington disease? A fMRI study
Objective: Our study investigated the impact of Huntington disease (HD) on brain connectivity, through resting-state (RS) fMRI, among the most critical regions associated with physiopathology.…Neuromelanin MRI detects monoaminergic cell loss in Huntington Disease Expansion Gene Carriers.
Objective: To measure, with NM-MRI, the integrity of neuromelanin-containing monoaminergic cells in the SN and LC in Huntington Disease Gene Expansion Carriers (HDGECs) and compare…Quantification of regional iron content with Susceptibility Weighted Imaging in Huntington Disease Expansion Gene Carriers
Objective: To assess brain iron content measured with SWI-MRI in HD gene expansion carriers (HDGECs). Background: Huntington’s Disease (HD) results in extensive neuronal cell loss,…Tumor Pathology in Patients with Huntington’s Disease in a Specialized Center of Buenos Aires, Argentina (Preliminary Data)
Objective: To analyze the prevalence and type of neoplasms in patients with HD and to contrast it with the data of the general population in…Multimodal characterization of the visual network in Huntington’s disease
Objective: To examine the relationship between structural organization, functional processing and task performance of the visual system in a cohort of Huntington’s disease (HD) gene-mutation…Factors underlying reduced aerobic capacity in Huntington disease
Objective: Examine factors underlying aerobic capacity in prodromal and manifest Huntington disease (HD) and matched controls Background: HD results in motor impairments, weight loss, muscle…Changes in GABAergic transmission of striatal neurons in presymptomatic Huntington’s Disease
Objective: To determine whether parameters of synaptic and extrasynaptic GABAergic inhibition of striatal projection neurons are altered in presymptomatic BACHD mice. Background: One attractive early…Pallidal surgery and physiological mechanism in choreic movements
Objective: To investigate the effect of deep brain stimulation (DBS) or coagulation of the internal globus pallidus (GPi) for choreic movements of various disorders and…Huntington Disease-Like 2: A Case Presentation and Review of the Literature
Objective: To present a case of Huntington Disease-Like 2 (HDL2). HDL2 is rare and phenotypically similar to Huntington’s Disease (HD). However the gene, chromosome, and…
