Diffusion MRI and α‐Synuclein Seed Amplification Status in Parkinson's Disease

open access: yesAnnals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Objective Positive α‐synuclein seed amplification assay (SAA) is a biomarker found in most people with Parkinson's disease (PD). We explored if free‐water (FW) imaging detects microstructural differences in the brains of patients with early PD with SAA+ or SAA– status.

Procerus sign as a diagnostic clue for progressive supranuclear palsy

open access: yesArquivos de Neuro-Psiquiatria
The procerus sign is associated with some diseases that initially manifest as atypical parkinsonism, especially progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP). It is described as a vertical contraction of the muscles in the glabellar region.

Linking Brain Morphometry to Psychometric Measures and Energy‐Metabolic Biomarkers in Adults With Autism Spectrum Disorder

open access: yesAutism Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is associated with differences in neurodevelopment and altered metabolism, yet the interplay between brain morphometry, mitochondrial and energy metabolism biomarkers, and autistic traits in adults remains poorly understood. This study investigates the link between brain structure, psychometric measures, and both

Development of Parkinsonism following exposure to aripiprazole: two case reports

open access: yesJournal of Medical Case Reports, 2009
Introduction Aripiprazole is a novel atypical neuroleptic used in the treatment of psychosis. A few recent studies have demonstrated an association between the use of aripiprazole and an exacerbation of Parkinsonism, although this relationship is poorly ...

Psychotropic medication use among community dwellers with and without Parkinson's disease – A nationwide cohort study

open access: yesBritish Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Aims We studied the prevalence of psychotropic use and psychotropic polypharmacy in persons with Parkinson's disease (PD) during a 10‐year follow‐up, because longitudinal studies on this topic are scarce although non‐motor symptoms of PD are often treated with psychotropics.

Humans are not unique: difficult birth is common in placental mammals

open access: yesBiological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Human childbirth is widely presumed to be uniquely difficult and dangerous compared to birth in other mammals. Tight fetopelvic proportions can result in obstructed labour and contribute to high rates of maternal and neonatal mortality. Ideas summarised under the ‘obstetrical dilemma’ have contributed to this assumption by explaining difficult

Challenging Diagnosis of Fahr's Disease Mimicking Parkinson's Disease: A Case Report

open access: yesClinical Case Reports
Patients presenting with parkinsonism symptoms such as severe bradykinesia and significant hypophonia, along with an atypical clinical course, should be evaluated for secondary parkinsonism syndromes and other causes of parkinsonism.

Mitochondrial dysfunction in Parkinsonian mesenchymal stem cells impairs differentiation

open access: yesRedox Biology, 2018
Sporadic cases account for 90–95% of all patients with Parkinson's Disease (PD). Atypical Parkinsonism comprises approximately 20% of all patients with parkinsonism. Progressive Supranuclear Palsy (PSP) belongs to the atypical parkinsonian diseases and

The Serotonin 2B (5‐HT2B) Receptor: A Narrative Review of Preclinical and Clinical Evidence on the Safety Considerations and Therapeutic Potential for the Treatment of Depression

open access: yesClinical Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.
Major depressive disorder (MDD) and treatment‐resistant depression (TRD) remain leading causes of disability, providing the impetus for receptor‐level treatment strategies beyond monoamine reuptake. The serotonin 5‐HT2B receptor (5‐HT2BR) is uniquely positioned at the interface of central‐antidepressant mechanisms and peripheral cardiac risks.

A case report: Neuroimaging in an atypical presentation of Parkinson’s disease

open access: yesSouth African Journal of Psychiatry
Introduction: Parkinson’s disease (PD) is the second leading neurodegenerative disorder in the world. The diagnosis of idiopathic Parkinson’s disease (IPD) is mainly through clinical presentation of motor and non-motor symptoms.
