Daytime Sleepiness Effects on Motor Symptoms in De Novo Parkinson’s Disease
Objective: To investigate whether daytime sleepiness in newly diagnosed Parkinson’s disease (PD) patients predicts future dependency. Background: Excessive daytime sleepiness (EDS) is one of the…The differential role of subthalamic and nigral neurons in gait control in Parkinson´s disease patients
Objective: The aim of the study was to identify and characterize subthalamic (STN) and nigral (SNr) neurons showing gait-related activity changes. 12 Parkinson’s disease (PD)…Frailty status predicts falls in early Parkinson’s disease
Objective: To establish whether there is an association between frailty and falls in early Parkinson’s (PD). Background: PD is a syndrome in which postural control,…Visual assessment of dopamine transporter imaging in normal pressure hydrocephalus
Objective: We aimed to investigate detailed analysis for striatal dopaminergic depletion in idiopathic normal pressure hydrocephalus (iNPH) with visual assessment. Background: Variable degree of parkinsonism…Effect of levodopa on fronto-parietal network connectivity in freezing of gait in Parkinson’s disease
Objective: To investigate the effect of levodopa on fronto-parietal network (FPN) functional connectivity (FC) in Parkinson’s disease patients with (PD-FOG) and without freezing of gait…Predictors of freezing of gait in newly diagnosed Parkinson’s disease: Clinical, dopamine transporter imaging and CSF markers in the PPMI cohort
Objective: To examine whether clinical, dopamine transporter (DAT) imaging and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) markers can be used to predict the later development of FOG individually…Functional Balance and Neuromuscular Strength Difficulties Like Fracture Predictors in a Parkinsonian Population
Objective: To evaluate the strength and function of the hip flexor muscles and knee extensors of elderly patients with Parkinson's disease (PD) to know possible…Motor and Non-motor Features Predict Freezing of Gait in Parkinson’s Disease
Objective: To investigate and evaluate behavioral predictors of conversion to Freezing of Gait in Parkinson’s Disease (PD). Background: Freezing of Gait (FOG) has devastating consequences…Vascular parkinsonism: Clinical features and comparison with Parkinson’s disease
Objective: To define the clinical features of vascular parkinsonism (VP) and compare it to idiopathic Parkinson’s disease (iPD). Background: The main differential diagnosis of VP…The Association Between Inhibitory Control and Freezing of Gait Severity in Parkinson’s Disease
Objective: To investigate the relationship between inhibitory control and freezing of gait (FOG) severity in Parkinson’s disease (PD). Background: Inhibition deficits play a role in…
