Characterizing Cutaneous α‐Synuclein Deposition and Seeding Activity in Parkinson's Disease Subtypes

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Cutaneous phosphorylated α‐synuclein (p‐syn) and α‐synuclein seeding activity are promising biomarkers for Parkinson's disease (PD), but their clinical value remains uncertain due to disease heterogeneity. This study evaluates these two biomarkers in PD patients to inform phenotype‐specific diagnosis and disease severity assessment ...

A Practical Guide to the Treatment of Neurogenic Orthostatic Hypotension [PDF]

open access: yesCanadian Journal of Neurological Sciences / Journal Canadien des Sciences Neurologiques, 2014
Neurogenic orthostatic hypotension (NOH) is a debilitating condition associated with many central and peripheral neurological disorders. It has a complex pathophysiology and variable clinical presentation, which makes diagnosis and treatment difficult. Neurogenic orthostatic hypotension is often confused with other disorders of orthostatic intolerance,

Diagnosis and management of neurogenic orthostatic hypotension

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical Neurophysiology, 2023
Orthostatic hypotension is a sustained and pathological drop in blood pressure upon standing. Orthostatic hypotension can be due to non-neurogenic conditions or autonomic disorders. Impaired baroreflex-mediated vasoconstriction and insufficient release of norepinephrine play key roles in the pathophysiology of neurogenic orthostatic hypotension.

Sex Differences in Fall Frequency, Risk Factors, and Outcomes in Parkinson's Disease: A Cross‐Sectional Analysis

open access: yesMovement Disorders Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Female sex is an independent fall risk factor in Parkinson's disease (PD), yet sex‐specific fall patterns remain unclear. Objectives To compare sex‐specific fall risk and outcomes across PD, prodromal alpha‐synucleinopathy (PAS), and healthy controls (HC); estimate fall frequency across PD progression; and assess how sex modifies ...
