Impact of hepatitis C treatment status on risk of Parkinson's disease and secondary parkinsonism in the era of direct‐acting antivirals

Journal of Viral Hepatitis, 2023
AbstractResearch suggests a possible link between chronic infection with hepatitis C virus (HCV) and the development of Parkinson's Disease (PD) and secondary Parkinsonism (PKM). We investigated the impact of antiviral treatment status (untreated, interferon [IFN] treated, direct‐acting antiviral [DAA] treated) and outcome (treatment failure [TF] or ...

Pathological gambling behaviour: Emergence secondary to treatment of Parkinson's disease with dopaminergic agents

Depression and Anxiety, 2000
We present a case in which the use of low dose risperidone (a potent D2 and 5-HT2 antagonist) was successful in controlling gambling behaviour secondary to dopamine agonist treatment of Parkinson's disease. Pharmacotherapeutic management of pathological gambling secondary to medical causes deserves further study.

Is drooling secondary to a swallowing disorder in patients with Parkinson's disease?

Parkinsonism and Related Disorders, 2008
Drooling is a common manifestation in Parkinson's disease (PD). It causes psychosocial difficulties and can result in aspiration and chest infection. Previous studies point to an association between swallowing problems and sialorrhea. The aim of this study was to determine if drooling is associated with dysphagia in PD patients.

Oxidative-stress-induced apoptosis in PBLs of two patients with Parkinson disease secondary to alpha-synuclein mutation

Journal of the Neurological Sciences, 2008
Alpha-synuclein has been implicated in the pathology of certain neurodegenerative diseases, including Parkinson disease (PD). Although the precise physiological and pathological role of alpha-synuclein is unclear, overexpression of the protein or its ...

The distribution of ancestral secondary cases in Parkinson's disease

Clinical Genetics, 1977
Recent evidence suggests a genetic mode of transmission of Parkinson's disease. A multifactorial mechanism is likely, but autosomal dominance with reduced penetrance has not been excluded.The distribution of ancestral second‐degree relatives with Parkinson's disease was evaluated in 12 families.

Clawhand deformity presumed secondary to Parkinson's disease

The Journal of Hand Surgery, 1985
A clawhand deformity presumed to be secondary to Parkinson's disease is described. No such association was found previously recorded in the literature. The marked limitation in hand function was improved by lengthening the extensor tendons, a 4-tail superficialis transfer to the intrinsic muscles, and capsulotomy of the metacarpophalangeal joints of ...

Pathological gambling secondary to dopaminergic therapy in Parkinson's disease

Psychiatry Research, 2006
We describe six patients with Parkinson's disease (PD) and pathological gambling. All patients started gambling after the onset of PD and initiation or increase of treatment with dopaminergic therapy. The fact that pathological behaviour disappeared as medication was ended or decreased suggests that an elaborate behavioural manifestation could be ...

Naming in dementia secondary to Parkinson's, Huntington's, and Alzheimer's diseases

Journal of Communication Disorders, 1996
Confrontation naming problems have been found in patients with dementia secondary to Alzheimer's (AD), Huntington's (HD), and in a subset of Parkinson's disease (PD) patients with dementia. The source of the naming deficit has not been established.
