Brain structural abnormalities in multiple system atrophy patients with cognitive impairment
Objective: To investigate the cerebral anatomical changes associated with cognitive impairment (CI) in multiple system atrophy (MSA). Background: Mild cognitive deficits are frequently reported in…Persistent hemichorea and caudate atrophy in untreated diabetic striatopathy
Objective: To describe the natural history and imaging findings in a case of untreated diabetic striatopathy. Background: Diabetic striatopathy (DS) is a rare movement disorder…May substantia nigra volume asymmetry be an indicator of motor asymmetry in Parkinson’s disease? A retrospective analysis
Objective: We investigated whether smaller substantia nigra is associated with worse parkinsonism on the corresponding contralateral side. Background: Degeneration of dopaminergic cells and morphologic changes…Characterization and quantitative analysis of prelemniscal radiations in Parkinson´s disease
Objective: To characterize the connectivity of prelemniscal radiations (Raprl) and to identify differences in the fiber populations within the Raprl. Background: The Raprl have been…Neuropsychology and magnetic resonance correlation in Parkinson´s disease mild cognitive impairment: Case-control study
Objective: Evaluate the relationship between magnetic resonance (MRI) abnormalities and neuropsychological assessment in Parkinson s disease mild cognitive impairment (PD-MCI) and controls with mild cognitive…Parkinsonism due to hypermanganism in the background of cirrhosis and recovery by CaNaEDTA
Objective: To present a patient diagnosed with secondary hypermanganism due to cirrhosis whose extrapyramidal findings had recovered significantly after chelation therapy. Background: Manganese is an…Comparative analysis of freezing of gait in distinct parkinsonism types by diffusion tensor imagining and cognitive profiles
Objective: To demonstrate possible disturbances in pedinculopontine nucleus (PPN) and its connections in freezing of gait (FOG) by DTI in conjunction with the cognitive profile.…Loss of extra-striatal phosphodiesterase 10A expression in early premanifest Huntington’s disease gene carriers
Objective: Using positron emission tomography (PET) with [11C]IMA107, we investigated the in vivo expression of PDE10A in extra-striatal regions in a cohort of 12 early…Disruption of functional connectivity in Parkinson’s disease patients presenting phonemic fluency impairment
Objective: This study was designed to clarify the changes of detailed functional connectivity in association with phonemic fluency deficits in Parkinson's disease (PD) patients using…The position of the conus medullaris and the prevalence of isolated lipoma of filum terminale in Parkinson’s disease
Objective: To evaluate the positions of the conus medullaris in patients with Parkinson's disease(PD). To know the prevalence of isolated lipoma of filum terminale(LFT) in…
