Phenoconversion from probable rapid eye movement sleep behavior disorder to mild cognitive impairment to dementia in a population-based sample [PDF]
© 2017 The Authors Introduction Rapid eye movement sleep behavior disorder (RBD) is strongly associated with synucleinopathies. In 2012, we reported an increased risk of mild cognitive impairment (MCI) and Parkinson disease (PD) in cognitively normal ...

Susceptibility and diffusion MRI biomarkers predict development of Parkinsonism in iRBD [PDF]
Quantitative MRI techniques, including quantitative susceptibility mapping (QSM) and diffusion tensor imaging (DTI), may detect early neurodegenerative changes in ɑ-synucleinopathies, especially within the midbrain.

REM Sleep Behaviour Disorder in Multiple System Atrophy: From Prodromal to Progression of Disease [PDF]
A higher frequency of motor and breathing sleep-related disorders in multiple system atrophy (MSA) populations is reported. REM sleep behaviour disorder (RBD) is one of the most robust markers of an underlying alpha-synucleinopathy.

The impact of CYP2C19 genotype on phenoconversion by concomitant medication
Introduction: Pharmacogenetics-informed drug prescribing is increasingly applied in clinical practice. Typically, drug metabolizing phenotypes are determined based on genetic test results, whereupon dosage or drugs are adjusted.

Glymphatic Function in Prodromal Parkinson's Disease: Associations With Symptoms, Gray Matter Volume, and Phenoconversion Risk. [PDF]
Glymphatic dysfunction occurs in Parkinson's disease (PD), but its status in prodromal PD (pPD) is unclear. Using the diffusion tensor imaging along perivascular spaces (DTI‐ALPS) index as an indirect proxy, this study aims to evaluate glymphatic‐related

0417 Preclinical Model to Test Potential Therapeutics to Prevent Phenoconversion of REM Sleep Behavior Disorder to Parkinson’s Disease After Neurotrauma [PDF]
Neurotrauma, including traumatic brain injury (TBI) and/or post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), often results in persistent sleep disturbances and impaired neurological function.
