Early Freezing of Gait: Atypical versus Typical Parkinson Disorders
In 18 months, 850 patients were referred to Muhammad Ali Parkinson Center (MAPC). Among them, 810 patients had typical Parkinson disease (PD) and 212 had PD for ≤5 years. Among the 212 patients with early PD, 27 (12.7%) had freezing of gait (FOG).

Clinical Variability of SYNJ1-Associated Early-Onset Parkinsonism
Autosomal recessive early-onset parkinsonism is clinically and genetically heterogeneous. Mutations of three genes, PRKN, PINK1, and DJ-1 cause pure phenotypes usually characterized by levodopa-responsive Parkinson's disease.

Sleep Disorders in Atypical Parkinsonism [PDF]
AbstractSleep disorders are commonly observed in atypical parkinsonism, with particular disorders occurring more frequently in specific parkinsonian disorders. Multiple system atrophy (MSA) is a synucleinopathy often associated with nocturnal stridor, which is a serious, but treatable, condition highly specific to MSA.

Effectiveness of an Inpatient Movement Disorders Program for Patients with Atypical Parkinsonism
This paper investigated the effectiveness of an inpatient movement disorders program for patients with atypical parkinsonism, who typically respond poorly to pharmacologic intervention and are challenging to rehabilitate as outpatients.

New insights into atypical parkinsonism [PDF]
Atypical parkinsonian disorders (APDs) comprise a heterogenous group of disorders including multiple system atrophy (MSA), dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB), progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP) and corticobasal degeneration (CBD). Based on literature published in 2010, we here review recent advances in the APD field.Genome-wide association studies have ...
