Mapping Neurodegenerative Changes in Clinically Uncertain Parkinsonian Syndrome Patients Using Fast MR Spin TomogrAphy in Time‐Domain (MR‐STAT) Relaxometry at 3T

open access: yesJournal of Magnetic Resonance Imaging, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background MR Spin TomogrAphy in Time‐domain (MR‐STAT) enables accelerated multiparametric relaxometry (T1/T2). Previous relaxometry studies predominantly compared Parkinson's disease patients with healthy controls (HC). The potential of relaxometry to distinguish neurodegenerative from non‐neurodegenerative parkinsonism in clinically ...

Alzheimer's Biomarkers and Visuospatial Cognition in Parkinson's Disease: Modification by α‐Synuclein and Mediation of Age Effects

open access: yesMovement Disorders Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Visuospatial deficits in Parkinson's disease (PD) often precede dementia and complicate daily functioning. Alzheimer's disease (AD) pathology and α‐synuclein aggregation frequently co‐occur in PD, but their combined impact on cognition is unclear.

Long-term effects of cholinesterase inhibitors and memantine on cognitive decline, cardiovascular events, and mortality in dementia with Lewy bodies: An up to 10-year follow-up study. [PDF]

open access: yes
INTRODUCTION We aimed to assess the impact of cholinesterase inhibitors (ChEIs) and memantine on cognition, major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) and mortality in dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB).

Mind the Gap: Predictors of Osteoporosis Treatment Following Fragility Fracture in Parkinsonism

open access: yesMovement Disorders Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Fracture risk is increased in Parkinson's yet this risk is often not addressed. Objectives Our objective was to study the extent to which osteoporosis was treated, and predictors of treatment in a large representative cohort with parkinsonism.

Next-generation sequencing reveals substantial genetic contribution to dementia with Lewy bodies

open access: yesNeurobiology of Disease, 2016
Dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB) is the second most common neurodegenerative dementia after Alzheimer's disease. Although an increasing number of genetic factors have been connected to this debilitating condition, the proportion of cases that can be ...

Lewy body disease and dementia with Lewy bodies

open access: yesProceedings of the Japan Academy, Series B, 2014
In 1976 we reported our first autopsied case with diffuse Lewy body disease (DLBD), the term of which we proposed in 1984. We also proposed the term "Lewy body disease" (LBD) in 1980. Subsequently, we classified LBD into three types according to the distribution pattern of Lewy bodies: a brain stem type, a transitional type and a diffuse type.

Genetics of Dementia with Lewy Bodies [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
In this thesis we describe that there are differences in phenotype between familial and sporadic patients with dementia with Lewy bodies. Furthermore, this thesis provides more evidence that the APOE ɛ4 allele and that rare variants in the GBA gene ...

Enteral Nutrition in Idiopathic Parkinson's Disease and Atypical Parkinsonism: A Systematic Review

open access: yesMovement Disorders Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Dysphagia and malnutrition are common in advanced Parkinson's disease and atypical parkinsonism. There is a lack of evidence to guide the use of enteral nutrition in these situations, including whether it improves survival or reduces aspiration pneumonia.

Cardiac MIBG Scintigraphy in Neurodegenerative Parkinsonism: Limitations in Clinical Practice

open access: yesMovement Disorders Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Reduced cardiac uptake on 123Iodine‐metaiodobenzylguanidine (MIBG) scintigraphy is a valuable tool for differentiating neurodegenerative parkinsonism but interpretation can be difficult due to comorbidities and drug‐tracer interactions.
