Evaluating the Role of α‐Synuclein Seed Amplification as a Disease Progression Marker: Evidence and Uncertainties

open access: yesMovement Disorders Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Background α‐synuclein seeding amplification assay (α‐synuclein SAA) development as a diagnostic biomarker for Parkinson's disease (PD) has shown promising results over the past decade. However, the utility of these assays in the prediction of disease progression is unclear.

Brain Imaging Changes Following Deep Brain Stimulation Patients with Parkinson's Disease: A Literature Review

open access: yesMovement Disorders Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Parkinson's Disease (PD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder primarily characterized by motor symptoms such as tremors, rigidity, and bradykinesia. Structural brain changes, including atrophy in the midbrain, basal ganglia, and cortical regions such as the frontal and temporal lobes, are observed in advanced stages.
