Hardware Sophistications in Subthalamic Nucleus Deep Brain Stimulation for Parkinson's Disease; Is the Juice Worth the Squeeze?

open access: yesMovement Disorders Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Background New sophisticated deep brain stimulation (DBS) systems enabling steering of current and aiming at improving further motor outcome and decreasing side effects have virtually replaced old omnidirectional systems, despite being more labor‐intensive and expensive.

Continuous Intrajejunal Levodopa–Carbidopa Infusion in Parkinson's Disease Associated with 22q11.2 Deletion Syndrome: A Case Series

open access: yesMovement Disorders Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Background 22q11.2 deletion syndrome (22q11DS) is a multisystem genetic disorder associated with a significantly increased risk of early‐onset Parkinson's disease (EOPD). Management is challenging because psychiatric and cognitive comorbidities often limit advanced therapies such as deep brain stimulation (DBS). Cases We report 2 patients with

Use of the PROMIS and Neuro‐QoL to Evaluate Health‐Related Quality of Life following Unilateral Subthalamic Deep Brain Stimulation for Parkinson's Disease

open access: yesMovement Disorders Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Subthalamic nucleus deep brain stimulation (STN DBS) improves Parkinson's disease (PD)‐related motor symptoms, but how STN DBS impacts various aspects of patient‐perceived health‐related quality of life (HRQoL) is less clear. The Patient‐Reported Outcome Measurement Instrument (PROMIS) and Quality of Life in Neurological Disorders ...

Contributions of Gut Bacteria and Diet to Drug Pharmacokinetics in the Treatment of Parkinson's Disease

open access: yesFrontiers in Neurology, 2019
Parkinson's disease is the second-most common neurodegenerative disorder worldwide. Besides deciphering the mechanisms that underlie the etiology of the disease, it is important to elucidate the factors that influence the efficacy of the treatment ...

Disease‐Duration–Specific Percentiles for Prospective Subtyping of Parkinson's Disease: A PPMI‐Based Study

open access: yesMovement Disorders Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Parkinson's disease (PD) is clinically heterogeneous, with variable progression rates that complicate clinical trial design. The data‐driven diffuse malignant (DM), intermediate (IM), and mild‐motor predominant (MMP) subtyping model has prognostic value but lacks disease duration–specific thresholds for prospective use in disease ...

Nitrous oxide promotes hyperhomocysteinemia in levodopa treated rats

open access: yes, 2016
BACKGROUND: This study investigated whether brief exposure to nitrous oxide (N(2)O) exacerbates levodopa-induced hyperhomocysteinemia, and if co-treatment with folate or entacapone could reduce total plasma homocysteine (tHcy) levels.

Machine Learning Prediction of Hoehn and Yahr Scores at 5‐Years Post‐123I‐Ioflupane SPECT Imaging in a Real‐World Parkinson's Disease Dataset

open access: yesMovement Disorders Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Parkinson's disease (PD) progression is highly heterogeneous, complicating clinical management and prognostication. While machine learning models have been developed using research datasets such as Parkinson's Precision Medicine Initiative (PPMI) and Parkinson's Disease Biomarkers Program (PDBP), their clinical translatability is ...
