Wearable Metamaterials with Embodied Intelligence for Programmable Control of Human Limbs Tremor
Resulting from alternating muscle contractions, tremors can severely limit human ability to perform everyday tasks like walking or talking, due to their disruptive nature. Medication and surgery may not always effectively address tremor control. A wearable device embodying programmable smart metamaterials with adaptable intelligence to meet the demand ...

Cardiovascular autonomic function and MCI in Parkinson's disease [PDF]
Introduction: dysautonomic dysfunction and cognitive impairment represent the most disabling non-motor features of Parkinson's Disease (PD). Recent evidences suggest the association between Orthostatic Hypotension (OH) and PD-Dementia. However, little is

Disease Progression in Multiple System Atrophy: The ASPIRE Multi‐Modal Biomarker Study
Objective The objective of this study was to characterize changes in candidate biomarkers in early multiple system atrophy (MSA) and identify baseline predictors of faster progression. Methods This 1‐year, multicenter, prospective study assessed clinical, neuroimaging (3T‐magnetic resonance imaging [MRI], dopamine transporter single‐photon emission ...

Severe orthostatic hypotension due to unilateral carotid artery dissection
A 46-year-old woman was admitted to our hospital with mild right-sided hemiparesis and orthostatic hypotension. Magnetic resonance angiography of the neck showed stenosis of the left distal carotid sinus surrounded by intraluminal hyperintensities on ...

A 3-year natural history of orthostatic blood pressure dysregulation in early Parkinson’s disease
In Parkinson’s disease (PD), cardiovascular dysautonomia accumulates with disease progression, but studies are lacking on the natural history behind each subtype except orthostatic hypotension.

Midodrine as a Countermeasure for Post-Spaceflight Orthostatic Hypotension [PDF]
One possible mechanism for post-spaceflight orthostatic hypotension, which affects approximately 30% of astronauts after short duration shuttle missions, is inadequate norepinephrine release during upright posture.

Turning Slowly Predicts Future Diagnosis of Parkinson's Disease: A Decade‐Long Longitudinal Analysis
Objective Wearable technology allows accurate measurement of turning while walking, with cross‐sectional studies indicating that difficulty turning presents even in preclinical phases of Parkinson's disease. The aim of our study was to quantify rate of change of turning performance in a cohort of older adults, and test whether turning decline can ...

Orthostatic Hypotension and the Long-Term Risk of Dementia: A Population-Based Study [PDF]
Background: Orthostatic hypotension (OH) is a common cause of transient cerebral hypoperfusion in the population. Cerebral hypoperfusion is widely implicated in cognitive impairment, but whether OH contributes to cognitive decline and dementia is ...
