Impact of Istradefylline on Levodopa Dose Escalation in Parkinson’s Disease: ISTRA ADJUST PD Study, a Multicenter, Open-Label, Randomized, Parallel-Group Controlled Study

Neurology and Therapy
Introduction A higher levodopa dose is a risk factor for motor complications in Parkinson’s disease (PD). Istradefylline (IST) is used as adjunctive treatment to levodopa in PD patients with off episodes, but its impact on levodopa dose titration remains

Computer Vision Analysis for Objective Motor Assessment in Parkinson's Disease: A Retrospective Study

Movement Disorders Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Background The Movement Disorder Society‐Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale‐Part III (MDS‐UPDRS‐III) is subjective and insensitive to subtle changes in patients with Parkinson's disease (PD). Computer vision (CV) can extract objective kinematics from routine outpatient videos, potentially augmenting the accuracy of the motor assessment ...

Considerations for Initiation and Maintenance of Foslevodopa/Foscarbidopa for Advanced Parkinson's Disease

Movement Disorders Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Background As Parkinson's disease (PD) progresses, motor fluctuations become increasingly difficult to manage with oral medications. Foslevodopa/foscarbidopa (LDp/CDp), delivered as a continuous 24‐h/day subcutaneous infusion, offers continuous levodopa delivery and stable plasma levodopa levels that reduce motor fluctuations. LDp/CDp has been

A review of neuroleptic malignant syndrome : incidence and features in Malta [PDF]

, 1995
This paper describes Malta’s first sample of Neuroleptic Malignant Syndrome (NMS) and reviews the current literature. A retrospective sample of all diagnosed cases of NMS was reviewed using Pope’s (1986) criteria. Twelve cases were identified yielding an

High Accuracy Classification of Parkinson's Disease through Shape Analysis and Surface Fitting in $^{123}$I-Ioflupane SPECT Imaging

, 2017
Early and accurate identification of parkinsonian syndromes (PS) involving presynaptic degeneration from non-degenerative variants such as Scans Without Evidence of Dopaminergic Deficit (SWEDD) and tremor disorders, is important for effective patient ...

Patient Selection in Deep Brain Stimulation: A Role for Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation to Enhance the Levodopa Challenge?

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology
Dopaminergic medication and deep brain stimulation (DBS) improve motor symptoms in Parkinson's disease (PD), but levodopa response alone may not predict DBS outcomes.

Highly efficient electrocatalytic oxidation of levodopa as a Parkinson therapeutic drug based on modified screen-printed electrode

Heliyon
The current study presents the creation of a straightforward and sensitive sensor based on ZnO/Co3O4 nanocomposite modified screen-printed electrode (ZnO/Co3O4NC/SPE) for levodopa determination. At ZnO/Co3O4NC/SPE, an oxidative peak for levodopa solution

Patient‐Reported Communication Decline Following Deep Brain Stimulation in Parkinson's Disease

Movement Disorders Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Objective decline in communication abilities following Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) in People with Parkinson's disease (PwP) is common; however, patient perspectives remain under‐investigated. Objectives This study examined subjective change in communicative efficacy using the Communicative Participation Item Bank (CPIB) in PwP ...

Voice and Speech in Atypical Parkinsonian Disorders

Movement Disorders Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Background Motor speech disorders are early, common, and functionally limiting features of atypical parkinsonian disorders (APDs) such as progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP), corticobasal syndrome (CBS), and multiple system atrophy (MSA). These impairments are underrecognized and undertreated in neurology clinics.

Convergence Deficits in Myoclonus‐Dystonia Point to Cerebellar Impairment

Movement Disorders Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Myoclonus‐dystonia (M‐D) is a monogenic movement disorder, with proposed cerebellar dysfunction. Vergence eye movement deficits, characteristics of degenerative cerebellar disease, have not been studied in M‐D. Cerebellar transcranial alternating current stimulation (tACS) is considered a potential therapeutic approach.
