1D-Convolutional transformer for Parkinson disease diagnosis from gait [PDF]

arXiv, 2023
This paper presents an efficient deep neural network model for diagnosing Parkinson's disease from gait. More specifically, we introduce a hybrid ConvNet-Transformer architecture to accurately diagnose the disease by detecting the severity stage. The proposed architecture exploits the strengths of both Convolutional Neural Networks and Transformers in ...

Early Language Impairment as an Integral Part of the Cognitive Phenotype in Huntington's Disease

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Huntington's disease (HD) speech/language disorders have typically been attributed to motor and executive impairment due to striatal dysfunction. In‐depth study of linguistic skills and the role of extrastriatal structures in HD is scarce.

Adhesion molecules as potential targets for neuroprotection in a rodent model of Parkinson's disease

Neurobiology of Disease, 2011
Cell adhesion molecules might play an important role in the inflammatory mechanisms associated with neurodegeneration. We have previously observed, in rats, that subcutaneous injection of complete Freund's adjuvant (CFA), a pro-inflammatory agent that ...

Stereotactic Lesioning of the Thalamic Vo Nucleus for the Treatment of Writer's Cramp (Focal Hand Dystonia)

Frontiers in Neurology, 2018
Writer's cramp (focal hand dystonia) is a sporadic focal dystonia that affects a specific part of the upper limb causing excessive co-contraction of antagonistic muscles.

PhoneMD: Learning to Diagnose Parkinson's Disease from Smartphone Data [PDF]

arXiv, 2018
Parkinson's disease is a neurodegenerative disease that can affect a person's movement, speech, dexterity, and cognition. Clinicians primarily diagnose Parkinson's disease by performing a clinical assessment of symptoms. However, misdiagnoses are common.

A Novel CHMP2B Splicing Variant in Atypical Presentation of Familial Frontotemporal Lobar Degeneration

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT C‐truncating variants in the charged multivesicular body protein 2B (CHMP2B) gene are a rare cause of frontotemporal lobar degeneration (FTLD), previously identified only in Denmark, Belgium, and China. We report a novel CHMP2B splice‐site variant (c.35‐1G>A) associated with familial FTLD in Spain. The cases were two monozygotic male twins who

Topological Descriptors for Parkinson's Disease Classification and Regression Analysis [PDF]

arXiv, 2020
At present, the vast majority of human subjects with neurological disease are still diagnosed through in-person assessments and qualitative analysis of patient data. In this paper, we propose to use Topological Data Analysis (TDA) together with machine learning tools to automate the process of Parkinson's disease classification and severity assessment.

Dopamine agonists in Parkinson’s disease: Impact of D1-like or D2-like dopamine receptor subtype selectivity and avenues for future treatment

Clinical Parkinsonism & Related Disorders, 2023
Dopamine agonists (DAs) have demonstrated efficacy for the treatment of Parkinson’s disease (PD) but are limited by adverse effects (AEs). DAs can vary considerably in their receptor subtype selectivity and affinity, chemical composition, receptor ...

Enhanced LSTM by Attention Mechanism for Early Detection of Parkinson's Disease through Voice Signals [PDF]

Parkinson's disease (PD) is a neurodegenerative condition characterized by notable motor and non-motor manifestations. The assessment tool known as the Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale (UPDRS) plays a crucial role in evaluating the extent of symptomatology associated with Parkinson's Disease (PD).
