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…"Atypical" atypical parkinsonism
Objective: To look for additional “atypical“ features in a cohort of patients with a referring diagnosis of a certain atypical parkinsonism using the current diagnostic…Quantitative MRI measurement of regional cerebellar involvement in patients with progressive supranuclear palsy
Objective: We aimed to evaluate cerebellar involvement in PSP using MRI segmental volumetric analysis. Background: Progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP) is characterized clinically as postural instability…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;…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.…Atypical parkinsonism in C9orf72 expansions: A case report and systematic review of 45 cases from the literature
Objective: To provide a systematic clinical characterisation of C9orf72-associated parkinsonism. Background: While C9orf72 repeat expansions usually present with frontotemporal dementia (FTD) and/or amyotrophic lateral sclerosis…Application and correlates of the PSP quality of life scale
Objective: To apply the PSP Quality of Life scale (PSP-QoL) within a cross-sectional PSP population and correlate these scores with those of the PSP rating…PROSPECT: A UK-based longitudinal observational study of PSP, CBD, MSA and atypical parkinsonism syndromes
Objective: To aid the development of curative treatments, we need to develop better methods for diagnosing Progressive Supranuclear Palsy (PSP), Corticobasal Degeneration (CBD) and Multiple…Manual MRI morphometry in Parkinsonian syndromes
Objective: We investigated a large sample of Parkinsonian patients and healthy controls from five German academic medical centers with 3D MP-RAGE sequences on mainly 3T…Quantification of striatal dopamine transporters with [18F]PR04.MZ in patients with progressive supranuclear palsy and Parkinson’s disease
Objective: To evaluate the differences in striatal subregional dopamine transporter loss in Parkinson's disease (PD) and supranuclear palsy (PSP) and the diagnostic value of [18F]PR04.MZ…
