The Corticobasal Degeneration Functional Rating Scale (CBD-FS)
Objective: To develop a patient/care giver-reported scale that is capable of assessing functional disability in CBD that can be easily and reliably used in clinical…Signal intensity of cerebral gyri in corticobasal degeneration on phase difference enhanced MR images: Comparison with progressive supranuclear palsy and Parkinson’s disease
Objective: We evaluated the signal intensity of the cerebral gyri (CG) on phase difference enhanced imaging (PADRE) for the patients with corticobasal degeneration (CBD), progressive…A longitudinal observational study of a cohort of patients with PSP/CBD: The JALPAC project
Objective: To identify PSP/CBD progression biomarkers both to improve understanding of disease etiology and course, and to provide crucial tools to enhance the likelihood of…“Words untold”
Objective: To highlight the salient clinical and pathologic features of primary progressive apraxia of speech through a clinical case presentation. Background: Apraxia of speech is…Dorsal simultanagnosia as a cortical sign in the tauopathy spectrum
Objective: Clinical characterization of a tauopathy spectrum patient. Background: In recent years phenotypic overlap has been demonstrated between patients with progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP) pathology…Overlapping corticobasal syndromes: The many faces of the Armstrong criteria
Objective: To evaluate the prevalence and clinical presentation of corticobasal variants listed in the new Armstrong criteria, exploring their overlap with progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP),…Oxysterol and chitotriosidase as biomarkers for atypical Parkinsonian symptoms?
Objective: The aim of the study is to establish chitotriosidase and oxysterols as a biomarker for atypical Parkinsonian syndromes in order to make a distinction…Subjective report does not predict objective swallow impairment in atypical Parkinsonian syndromes
Objective: Swallow and speech disturbances are common in patients with atypical parkinsonism. The emergence of swallowing problems, or dysphagia, is associated with increased morbidity and…Clinical predictors of progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP) pathology in PSP syndrome
Objective: To elucidate specific clinical features of progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP) pathology in PSP syndrome. Background: PSP syndrome (PSPS) is the clinical hallmark of PSP;…Atypical Parkinsonian disorders: Insights for a differential diagnosis through the analysis of oculomotor profile in MSA, PSP and CBD patients
Objective: To determine peculiar changes in oculomotor profile that may help in distinguishing atypical parkinsonism with overlapping clinical features. Background: Atypical Parkinsonian disorders (APDs) include…
