Disease Duration Differentiates Freezing of Gait Response to Subthalamic and Nigral Stimulation for Parkinson's Disease in an Exploratory Multicenter Controlled Trial

open access: yesMovement Disorders Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Freezing of gait (FoG) belongs to most pressing unmet symptoms in the treatment of Parkinson's disease. Objectives To explore whether combined subthalamic and nigral (STN + SNr) deep brain stimulation improves FoG compared with optimized STN stimulation alone; to identify clinical variables associated with therapeutic response ...

JAK2 Variant and Parkinsonian Syndromes: Coincidence or Pathophysiological Link?

open access: yesMovement Disorders Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Background JAK2 variants are a hallmark of myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPNs), including polycythemia vera and essential thrombocythemia. These disorders are often associated with thrombotic and inflammatory complications. From a movement disorder perspective, chorea is a rare but well‐recognized neurological occurrence in this context ...

Voxel-Mirrored Homotopic Connectivity of Resting-State Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging in Blepharospasm

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychology, 2018
Objective: Several networks in human brain are involved in the development of blepharospasm. However, the underlying mechanisms for this disease are poorly understood. A voxel-mirrored homotopic connectivity (VMHC) method was used to quantify the changes
