Parkinson’s Disease (PD) and predictors of Driving Cessation: Results from a 6-year Longitudinal Study and a systematic review of the literature
Objective: We sought to identify predictors of driving cessation among PD patients. Background: Motor and cognitive impairment of PD patients interfere with their driving ability.…Stop signal reaction time: A promising Diagnostic marker for Functional Cervical Dystonia
Objective: In the current study we explored the clinical utility of Stop Signal Reaction Time (SSRT) as a diagnostic marker for functional cervical dystonia (FCD).…Machine Learning (ML) Prediction of Parkinson’s Disease (PD) Risk and Nigral Neuron Density
Objective: To investigate associations between nigral neuron density and ML-based PD risk prediction. Background: Early identification of persons at high risk for developing PD is…Emotional processing and response times in Parkinson’s disease
Objective: The aim of this behavioural study was to test whether motor response is mainly driven by the emotional content of a picture or if…Visuomotor reaction time can predict IQ in children
Objective: This study investigated whether visuomotor reaction time in 5 year-old children predicts intelligence test scores in 8 year-old children using the longitudinal approach. Background:…The role of attention networks in walking in Parkinson’s disease
Objective: To better understand how different attention networks contribute to walking. Background: Parkinson’s disease (PD) is often characterized by effortful, fall-prone walking. PD can also…Motor Response Inhibition – A potential tool to determine optimum STN-DBS setting
Objective: To explore the possibility of using an automated bed side test of motor response inhibition - Stop Signal Reaction Time (SSRT) while optimizing DBS…Relationship of cognitive processing speed with postural stability in non-demented Parkinson’s disease patients
Objective: To measure in PD patients with normal cognitive screening the clinical and instrumental measures of postural stability (PS) and analyze their relationship with cognitive…Impaired stopping reversed through dopamine replacement in Parkinson’s disease
Objective: Compare the response inhibition of motor process estimated through Stop Signal Reaction Time (SSRT) in Parkinson’s disease (PD) patients and healthy participants and observe…Relationship between Age-related Frailty and Intra-individual Variability of Reaction Time in Healthy Seniors: Implications for Parkinson’s disease
Objective: To investigate the relationship between age-related frailty and intra-individual variability of reaction time in normal ageing people. Background: The neurobiological processes of normal aging…
