Systemic Transthyretin Amyloidosis Incidentally Diagnosed With Prostate Biopsy: A Case Report

IJU Case Reports, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction The diagnosis of systemic transthyretin amyloidosis based on prostate biopsy is very rare, and we report this case with a literature review. Case Presentation A 73‐year‐old male patient was referred to our department due to an increased serum prostate‐specific antigen level at 10.4 ng/mL while receiving benign prostatic ...

Role of the Functional Gait Assessment in Validating Item Difficulty Hierarchy and Fall Risk for Idiopathic Normal Pressure Hydrocephalus

Movement Disorders Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Falls along with gait‐balance disturbances are important symptoms of idiopathic normal pressure hydrocephalus (iNPH). Objectives This study aimed to validate the Functional Gait Assessment (FGA) item‐difficulty hierarchy, determine its optimal fall cutoff value, and identify key items for assessing fall risk in iNPH.

Investigating Dopamine Replacement–Associated Fluctuations in Cognition and Mood in Cognitively Unimpaired Parkinson's Disease

Movement Disorders Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Non‐motor fluctuations, characterized by variability in mood and cognition, are prevalent in advanced Parkinson's disease (PD), but less is known about these fluctuations in early PD. Objective The objective was to characterize fluctuations in cognition and mood in early PD without cognitive impairment.

Orthostatic hypotension as a risk factor for longitudinal deterioration of cognitive function in the elderly

European Journal of Neurology, 2019
Orthostatic hypotension is frequent with aging with a prevalence of 20%–30% in people aged 65 or older and is considered to increase the risk for coronary events, strokes and dementia.

Cardiorespiratory Response to Exercise in Parkinson's Disease: Associations with Autonomic Dysfunction and Physical Activity

Movement Disorders Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Both autonomic dysfunction and low levels of physical activity could contribute to reduced cardiorespiratory fitness in people with Parkinson's disease (PD). However, the interrelationship between these concepts is not well understood.

Orthostatic-induced Hypotension Attenuates Cold Pressor Pain Perception

, 2010
In recent years, numerous studies have established a connection between blood pressure and nocioception. While this connection is well documented in the literature, its underlying physiological mechanisms have yet to be elucidated.

Sudomotor and cardiovascular dysfunction in patients with early untreated Parkinson's disease. [PDF]

, 2014
BACKGROUND: According to Braak staging of Parkinson's disease (PD), detection of autonomic dysfunction would help with early diagnosis of PD. OBJECTIVE: To determine whether the autonomic nervous system is involved in the early stage of PD, we evaluated ...
