Costs of Parkinson's Disease and Antiparkinsonian Pharmacotherapy: An Italian Cohort Study [PDF]
Objective: Antiparkinsonian pharmacotherapy is costly and the determinants of drug costs in Parkinson's disease (PD) have been poorly investigated. The objective of this study was to investigate the costs of PD and antiparkinsonian drugs in an Italian ...

What contributes to depression in Parkinson's disease? [PDF]
Background: Depression is a common problem in patients with Parkinson's disease, but its mechanism is poorly understood. It is thought that neurochemical changes contribute to its occurrence, but it is unclear why some patients develop depression and ...

The Acute Brain Response to Levodopa Heralds Dyskinesias in Parkinson Disease [PDF]
OBJECTIVE: In Parkinson disease (PD), long‐term treatment with the dopamine precursor levodopa gradually induces involuntary “dyskinesia” movements. The neural mechanisms underlying the emergence of levodopa‐induced dyskinesias in vivo are still poorly ...

Implanted Reuptake-deficient or Wild-type Dopaminergic Neurons Improve ON L-dopa Dyskinesias Without OFF-dyskinesias in a Rat Model of Parkinson's Disease [PDF]
OFF-L-dopa dyskinesias have been a surprising side-effect of intrastriatal foetal ventral mesencephalic transplantation in patients with Parkinson's disease.

Clinical Aspects and Management of Levodopa-Induced Dyskinesia
In Parkinson's disease, one of the most troublesome dilemmas is the treatment of levodopa-induced dyskinesia. After a few years, chronic treatment with levodopa is associated with the development of dyskinesias.

Levodopa Dose-Limiting Dyskinesias in Treatment of Segawa Disease
Researchers at the University of Cordoba, and other centers in Spain, Germany and New York report an atypical phenotype of persistent, low-dose levodopa treatment-limiting dyskinesias in 2 members of a family (female child aged 13 years and mother) with ...
