The heterogeneity of Parkinson’s disease
AbstractThe heterogeneity of Parkinson’s disease (PD), i.e. the various clinical phenotypes, pathological findings, genetic predispositions and probably also the various implicated pathophysiological pathways pose a major challenge for future research projects and therapeutic trail design.

Methamphetamine and Parkinson's Disease [PDF]
Parkinson's disease (PD) is a neurodegenerative disorder predominantly affecting the elderly. The aetiology of the disease is not known, but age and environmental factors play an important role. Although more than a dozen gene mutations associated with familial forms of Parkinson's disease have been described, fewer than 10% of all cases can be ...

How to spot ocular abnormalities in progressive supranuclear palsy? A practical review
Background For parkinsonian disorders, progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP) continues to be significant for differential diagnosis. PSP presents a range of ocular abnormalities that have been suggested as optional tools for its early detection, apart ...

Simulation Study and At Home Diagnostic Tool for Early Detection of Parkinsons Disease [PDF]
Hypomimia is a condition in the early stages of the progression of Parkinsons disease that limits the movement of facial muscles, restricting the accurate depiction of facial expressions. Also known as facial masking, this condition is an early symptom of Parkinson's disease, a neurodegenerative disorder that affects movement. To date, no specific test

Risk of Parkinson Disease and Secondary Parkinsonism in Myocardial Infarction Survivors
Background In addition to primary neurodegenerative processes, vascular disorders, such as stroke, can lead to parkinsonism. However, some cardiovascular risk factors, such as smoking and elevated cholesterol levels, are associated with reduced risk of ...

Imaging in Parkinson's Disease [PDF]
Parkinson's disease (PD) is a chronic neurodegenerative disease characterized by the loss of nigrostriatal dopaminergic neurons and aggregation of misfolded α-synuclein in Lewy bodies. The underlying mechanisms of neurodegeneration in PD are still unknown, and there are no disease-modifying treatments to slow the neurodegenerative processes.

Small Molecule Chaperones for the Treatment of Gaucher Disease and GBA1-Associated Parkinson Disease
Parkinson disease, the second most common movement disorder, is a complex neurodegenerative disorder hallmarked by the accumulation of alpha-synuclein, a neural-specific small protein associated with neuronal synapses. Mutations in the glucocerebrosidase
