Flt3 ligand does not differentiate between Parkinsonian disorders
Differential diagnosis of parkinsonian disorders is challenging because of overlapping symptoms, especially during early stages of disease. No validated biomarkers are available for early and accurate diagnosis of multiple system atrophy and other ...

Novel biomarkers for parkinsonian disorders [PDF]
Parkinsonian disorders (PS) are a heterogeneous group of neurodegenerative diseases characterised by the presence of parkinsonism. Parkinson’s disease (PD) is the most common PS, characterised by the accumulation of alpha-synuclein (αSyn) in Lewy ...

Comparison of 6-[18F]FDOPA PET with Nigrosome 1 detection in patients with parkinsonism
Background The functional 6-[18F]FDOPA positron emission tomography (PET) can be a helpful tool in differentiating parkinsonism with dopaminergic deficiency from clinically similar differential diagnoses.

Differential patterns of internally generated responses in parkinsonian disorders
Internally generated responses are centrally affected in parkinsonian disorders. This study investigated the cognitive components crucial for response generation as reflected in performance on verbal and non-verbal fluency tasks, which require voluntary ...

Relationship Between Swallowing Function and Maximum Phonation Time in Patients With Parkinsonism [PDF]
Objective To identify the relationship between maximum phonation time (MPT) and swallowing function, as well as the elements of swallowing, in order to provide a rationale for speech therapy in patients with Parkinsonism manifesting dysphagia.

Progress on diagnosis and treatment of functional parkinsonism
Functional parkinsonism (FP) is a disorder caused by psychological factors rather than neurodegeneration. Functional parkinsonism has a great influence on patients' quality of life and daily function. However, due to overlapping with some of the symptoms

Diagnostic Evaluation of 99mTc-TRODAT-1 SPECT in Parkinsonism [PDF]
Background Parkinsonism as a group of movement disorders, exhibit similar clinical presentation. Therefore, clinically differentiating these diseases is difficult. We investigated the diagnostic value of 99m Tc-TRODAT-1 SPECT in this setting.

Assessing bradykinesia in Parkinsonian disorders
Objective: Bradykinesia is one of the clinical hallmarks of Parkinson’s disease (PD) and atypical Parkinsonian syndromes. Clinical ratings scales and technology based assessments have been developed to measure bradykinesia.

Pharmacogenetic stimulation of cholinergic pedunculopontine neurons reverses motor deficits in a rat model of Parkinson's disease [PDF]
Background Patients with advanced Parkinson's disease (PD) often present with axial symptoms, including postural- and gait difficulties that respond poorly to dopaminergic agents.
