Testing feasibility and utility of remote data capture technology to assess Parkinson’s disease
Objective: To test feasibility and utility of home-based video-recording uploaded from a mobile device app to a cloud-based storage platform, in order to quantitate motor…Disease-related variables effect on depression and anxiety level in Parkinson’s patients
Objective: To evaluate correlations of depression and anxiety levels with motor symptoms, non-motor symptoms and pharmacological factors in Parkinson's disease (PD). Background: Depression and anxiety…Cortical impairment as marker of dementia risk in probable REM sleep behavior disorder in Parkinson’s disease
Objective: To assess utility of Parkinson's disease-cognitive rating scale (PD-CRS) to detect Mild cognitive impairment (MCI) and dementia risk in a Parkinson's disease (PD) subpopulation.…Evaluating bradykinesia: How many finger taps are needed?
Objective: To assess the utility of finger tapping (FT) test to evaluate bradykinesia in Parkinson's disease (PD) at short and long FT sequences. Background: Repetitive…Association of Parkinson’s disease severity and cortical and subcortical cognitive markers
Objective: To assess cortical and subcortical dysfunction in several stages of Parkinson's disease (PD) using the Parkinson's disease-cognitive rating scale (PD-CRS). Background: Cognitive impairment in…Pantotenate kinase associated neurodegeneration (PKAN): Proposal for a clinical rating scale
Objective: To design and validate a quantitative method for the assessment of PKAN patients. Background: Despite advances in the research of novel therapies for PKAN,…Correlation between tremor severity of essential tremor and perpendicular displacement in digital spiral analysis
Objective: Using changes of perpendicular displacement in digital spiral drawing to evaluate the handwriting severity in essential tremor patients. Background: Essential tremor patients usually have…Differences in MDS-UPDRS scores based on Hoehn and Yahr stage and disease duration: Results of a large international multicenter study of 3206 patients (the QUALPD study)
Objective: To analyze the MDS-UPDRS part I-IV scores and their differences based on Hoehn and Yahr stage (HY) and disease duration in a large cohort…Tremor amplitude detected by three-dimensional optical device provides good correlation to clinical rating scale
Objective: To examine the feasibility of using a three-dimensional (3D) optical device served as tremor amplitude detection, we determined correlation between its results and clinical…Gender and age-based differential item functioning (DIF) analysis of MDS-UPDRS
Objective: Test if DIF due to gender or age is present in MDS-UPDRS items. Background: Testing a rating scale for DIF is a core step…
