Aberrations in Voluntary Thought Initiation: Parallels to Motor Freezing in Basal Ganglia Dysfunction
Objective: To explore the neurophysiological basis of impaired volitional thought initiation focusing on dorsal caudate dysfunction, aberrant pallidal-thalamic inhibition, and impaired corticostriatal integration. Background: While…Neuroimaging and CSF Correlates of Minor Hallucinations in Parkinson’s Disease
Objective: To investigate associations between minor hallucinations (MH), cognition, CSF biomarkers, and neuroimaging findings in non-demented patients with idiopathic Parkinson’s disease (PD). Background: MH including…Predictor of post-deep brain stimulation cognitive decline in Parkinson’s disease patients
Objective: Deep brain stimulation (DBS) is a highly effective treatment for Parkinson’s disease (PD) motor symptoms; however, its benefits can be overshadowed by side effects…Gray Matter Microstructural Integrity in Relation to Frontostriatal and Posterior Cortical Cognitive Performance in Parkinson’s Disease
Objective: Explore relationships of frontostriatal (FS) and posterior cortical (PC) cognitive performance with gray matter (GM) microstructural integrity in Parkinson’s disease (PD). Background: The dual…Patterns and Predictors of Cholinesterase Inhibitor Use in Dementia with Lewy Bodies
Objective: The objective of this study was to identify the patterns and predictors of cholinesterase inhibitor (ChEI) prescribing in Dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB) patients.…Observations and Strategies for Improving Recruitment and Retention of Underrepresented Populations in Movement Disorders Clinical Research Trials Conducted in a Tertiary Research Site
Objective: To observe the improvement in one tertiary clinical site of the recruitment of underrepresented populations with a focus on the Asian demographic and note…Prodromal Lewy body dementia features in isolated REM sleep behavior disorder with neuronal synuclein disease
Objective: To assess for cognitive impairment and features of prodromal Lewy body dementia (LBD) in persons with isolated REM sleep behavior disorder (iRBD) and neuronal…Telephone-Based Cognitive Screening for MCI to Dementia in Parkinson’s Disease
Objective: The aim of this study is to evaluate whether telephone-based cognitive screening could be an effective and sustainable alternative to traditional in-person neuropsychological assessment.…Poor sleep quality is one of the causes of cognitive decline in Parkinson’s disease (PD)-1
Objective: The purpose of this study was to clarify the relationship between sleep disorders and cognitive function in PD by overnight electroencephalogram (EEG) and sleep…CSF Biomarker-based Cognitive Trajectories in Parkinson’s Disease-Subjective Cognitive Decline
Objective: To investigate associations between CSF biomarkers and cognitive decline in Parkinson’s Disease-Subjective Cognitive Decline (PD-SCD). Background: The presence of cognitive complaints without objective cognitive…
