Prodromal Lewy Body Symptoms and α‐Synuclein Seeding in Idiopathic Olfactory Dysfunction

open access: yesMovement Disorders Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Early identification of pathological α‐synuclein deposition (αSynD) may improve understanding of Lewy body disorder (LBD) progression and enable timely disease‐modifying treatments. Objectives We investigated αSynD using a seed amplification assay and assessed prodromal LBD symptoms in individuals with idiopathic olfactory ...

Clinical Outcome Assessments in Parkinson's Disease: A Scoping Review of Current Rating Scales and Future Needs

open access: yesMovement Disorders Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Clinical outcome assessments (COAs) are essential for evaluating symptom severity, treatment response, and disease progression in Parkinson's disease (PD). As clinical knowledge evolves, it is necessary to revisit the recommendation status on the COAs to ensure their continued relevance and validity. Objectives To provide an updated
