A case report of Fahr’s disease presenting with cerebellar ataxia [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Research in Clinical Medicine, 2023
Fahr’s disease is a rare condition characterized by the symmetrical calcification of basal ganglia and dentate nuclei of the cerebellum calcification. It is usually manifested by involuntary movements and psychiatric symptoms. Ataxia has been reported as

Diagnostic Evaluation of 99mTc-TRODAT-1 SPECT in Parkinsonism [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Research in Clinical Medicine, 2021
Background Parkinsonism as a group of movement disorders, exhibit similar clinical presentation. Therefore, clinically differentiating these diseases is difficult. We investigated the diagnostic value of 99m Tc-TRODAT-1 SPECT in this setting.

Neuro-Immune Cross-Talk in the Striatum: From Basal Ganglia Physiology to Circuit Dysfunction

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2021
The basal ganglia network is represented by an interconnected group of subcortical nuclei traditionally thought to play a crucial role in motor learning and movement execution.

Basal ganglia for beginners: the basic concepts you need to know and their role in movement control

open access: yesFrontiers in Systems Neuroscience, 2023
The basal ganglia are a subcortical collection of interacting clusters of cell bodies, and are involved in reward, emotional, and motor circuits. Within all the brain processing necessary to carry out voluntary movement, the basal nuclei are fundamental,

Fahr’s Syndrome and Pseudohypoparathyroidism- A rare clinical entity

open access: yesSri Lanka Journal of Diabetes Endocrinology and Metabolism, 2020
Physiological intracranial calcification occurs in about 0.3-1.5% of cases. It is asymptomatic and detected incidentally by neuroimaging. Pathological basal ganglia calcification is due to various causes, such as: metabolic disorders, infectious and ...

Preoperative systemic immune-inflammation index may predict prolonged mechanical ventilation in patients with spontaneous basal ganglia intracerebral hemorrhage undergoing surgical operation

open access: yesFrontiers in Neurology, 2023
BackgroundProlonged mechanical ventilation (PMV) has been proven as a risk factor for poor prognosis in patients with neurocritical illness. Spontaneous basal ganglia intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) is one common subtype of hemorrhagic stroke and is ...

Cerebral activations related to ballistic, stepwise interrupted and gradually modulated movements in parkinson patients [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Patients with Parkinson's disease (PD) experience impaired initiation and inhibition of movements such as difficulty to start/stop walking. At single-joint level this is accompanied by reduced inhibition of antagonist muscle activity.

18F-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography and magnetic resonance imaging evaluation of chorea

open access: yesNeurology International, 2018
Chorea is thought to be caused by deactivation of the indirect pathway in the basal ganglia circuit. However, few imaging studies have evaluated the basal ganglia circuit in actual patients with chorea.

Jules Bernard Luys: from a description of the subthalamic nucleus to hypnotism [PDF]

open access: yesArquivos de Neuro-Psiquiatria, 2020
The authors review the role of Jules Bernard Luys in the discovery of the subthalamic nucleus (STN) over 150 years ago. The relationships between the STN and movement disorders, particularly hemiballismus and Parkinson’s disease, are well known.
