Distinction and mutual Influences between Parkinson's Disease‐related and unrelated Chronic Pain
Abstract Background Chronic pain (i.e. > 3 months) is a common nonmotor symptom in patients with Parkinson's disease (PD), but the attribution to PD is critical for further treatment. Objectives We explored the PD Pain Classification System (PD‐PCS) criteria for the diagnosis of PD‐related pain and mutual influences between PD‐related and PD‐unrelated ...

Oppositional COMT Val158Met effects on resting state functional connectivity in adolescents and adults [PDF]
© 2014, The Author(s).Prefrontal dopamine levels are relatively increased in adolescence compared to adulthood. Genetic variation of COMT (COMT Val158Met) results in lower enzymatic activity and higher dopamine availability in Met carriers.

Movement Disorders Associated with 22q11.2 Microdeletion: A Scoping Review
Abstract Background Movement disorders have recently emerged as important neurologic manifestations of the 22q11.2 microdeletion that affects nearly one in every 2000 live births. Objective We aimed to map the existing evidence regarding the spectrum, diagnosis and treatment, and etiopathogenesis of movement disorders associated with 22q11.2 ...

COMT Val 158 Met polymorphism is associated with post-traumatic stress disorder and functional outcome following mild traumatic brain injury [PDF]
Mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI) results in variable clinical trajectories and outcomes. The source of variability remains unclear, but may involve genetic variations, such as single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs).
