Is levodopa-induced dyskinesia in Parkinson’s disease associated with increased blood brain barrier permeability and volumetric changes?
Objective: The aim of this study was to explore the angiogenetic hypothesis for Levodopa-induced-dyskinesia (LID) using advanced MRI methods in patients with Parkinson's disease (PD).…1 to 40 years later: Delayed effects of brain radiation presenting as parkinsonism
Objective: To report 3 adult cases of delayed radiation induced parkinsonism, with latency ranging from 1 to 40 years. . Background: Unequivocal radiation induced parkinsonism…Fragile X-associated tremor/ataxia syndrome in two female patients
Objective: To report two cases of female patients with FXTAS. Background: Fragile X-associated tremor/ataxia syndrome (FXTAS) is a neurodegenerative disorder with core features of action…Transcranial sonography of the substantia nigra and its correlation with iron metabolism and c-reactive protein in Parkinson’s disease
Objective: To measure the echogenicity of the substantia nigra (SN) by transcranial sonography (TCS) in PD patients and discuss its correlation with iron metabolism and…Real world conversion of levodopa to a novel extended release levodopa preparation: Determining predictors and dose ratios
Objective: To determine predictors of response and conversion ratios for a novel extended release levodopa preparation. Background: A new extended release levodopa preparation, Rytary®, has…Disrupted hubs in functional brain networks in subtype-specific Parkinson’s disease
Objective: To detect the changing pattern in functional network hubs in subtype-specific Parkinson's disease (PD) using resting-state functional magnetic resosonce imaging (Rs-fMRI). Background: PD is…The effect of dopaminergic therapy on stimulus-response learning and decision-making in Parkinson’s disease using fMRI
Objective: Our aim was to examine the neural correlates of stimulus-response (SR) learning in patients with Parkinson's disease (PD) on and off dopaminergic (DA) therapy…Metabolic brain changes related to specific cognitive impairment in non-demented Parkinson’s disease patients
Objective: To measure the expression of the Parkinson's disease related cognitive pattern (PDCP) in 18F-FDG-PET brain images of Parkinson's disease (PD) patients and healthy controls…Parkinson’s disease patients with onset in right side have a worse cognitive prognosis
Objective: The our intention was to investigate a dynamics of cognitive decline in patients with different side of onset parkinsonism in view of visual dysfunction…Visual hallucinations may serve as a possible predictor for Parkinson’s disease dementia
Objective: To observe whether visual hallucinations serve as a predictor of Parkinson's disease dementia. Background: Visual hallucinations (VH) is one of non-motor symptoms in Parkinson's…
