What Non-Genetic Parkinson’s Disease Risk Factors are Africans Exposed To? A Scoping Review
Objective: We set out to catalogue the risk factors patients with Parkinson’s Disease (PD) in Africa are exposed to. Background: Parkinson's disease (PD) is recognized…Serum Zinc Reduction During Foslevodopa/Foscarbidopa Continuous Subcutaneous Infusion in Parkinson’s Disease
Objective: To investigate whether continuous subcutaneous foslevodopa/foscarbidopa infusion reduces serum zinc levels in patients with Parkinson’s disease. Background: Reduced serum zinc levels in Parkinson’s disease…Association of Riverine Heavy Metal Contamination with Parkinson’s Disease Risk in Rural Pune: A Population-Based Case-Control Study
Objective: To evaluate the epidemiological and biochemical associations between chronic exposure to heavy metal-polluted river water and the risk of developing Parkinson’s disease (PD) in…Exploring Quantitative Susceptibility Mapping in Wilson’s Disease- A Prospective Cohort Study
Objective: To describe the quantitative magnetic susceptibility(QSM) in Wilson’s disease (WD) and healthy controls Background: Quantitative susceptibility mapping (QSM) is a post processing technique that…Laboratory changes of the liver function in the patients with Wilson’s disease
Objective: Wilson's disease (WD) is a chronic progressive neurodegenerative disease with a genetically determined disorder of copper metabolism due to mutations in the ATP7B gene,…Delayed movement disorders after usage of desomorphine-“crocodile”. Clinical case.
Objective: To study the clinical and neuroimaging features of a patient with a long-term use (more than 10 years) of desomorphine in the anamnesis. Background:…Serum Zinc Deficiency could be associated with dementia conversion in Parkinson’s disease
Objective: To investigate the role of depletion or excess of various heavy metals on clinical characteristics of Parkinson's disease (PD) developing PD dementia in drug-naïve…Evaluation of blood heavy metal concentrations in patients with essential tremor
Objective: In this study, we aimed to investigate the relationship between tremor characteristics, neuropsychiatric status and blood heavy metal levels of essential tremor (ET) patients.…An Ecologic Study of Aqueous Lead Exposure and Parkinson’s Disease
Objective: Examine the potential role of lead in water as a risk factor for PD. Background: Studying disease rates in different locations is an established…Synaptic Zn2+ Contribution to Parkinson’s Disease Pathophysiology: Pharmacological & Genetic Studies in Preclinical Mouse Models
Objective: The potential involvement of synaptic Zn2+ in development of Parkinson’s disease (PD) motor symptoms and dopaminergic neurodegeneration was investigated. Background: The progressive degeneration of…
