Although patients with head and neck cancer (HND) commonly experience mental health disease (MHD) at rates equal to or greater than those of patients with other types of cancer, HNC patients with MHD are often underdiagnosed and untreated. Thus, validated surveys should be used to screen for MHD, as subjective clinical judgement may underdiagnose MHD ...

Abstract Background Non‐motor symptoms, especially autonomic dysfunction, are major contributors to disability and decreased quality of life in Parkinson's disease (PD). Despite being common and having a wide range of clinical facets, exocrine gland dysfunction is still not well recognized and managed.

Abstract Background Parkinson's disease is mainly characterized by dopaminergic neurodegeneration in the substantia nigra pars compacta (SNc) and α‐synuclein accumulation. The locus coeruleus (LC) is also affected in Parkinson's disease and linked to some nonmotor symptoms, but the extent and timing of its degeneration remain unclear.

Altered Cerebrospinal Fluid Tryptophan–Kynurenine Pathway Metabolism in Multiple System Atrophy
Abstract Background Alterations in tryptophan–kynurenine (TRP‐KYN) metabolism, which is associated with neuroinflammation, remain unclear in multiple system atrophy (MSA). Objective The aim was to investigate cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) TRP metabolites in MSA and their associations with other biomarkers.

In Search of the Neurobiological Substrates for Social Playfulness in Mammalian Brains
Play behavior is a fundamental and intrinsic neurobehavioral process in the mammalian brain. Using rough-and-tumble play in the juvenile rat as a model system to study mammalian playfulness, some of the relevant neurobiological substrates for this ...

Abstract Background Serotonergic and dopaminergic pathways are implicated in Parkinson's disease psychosis (PDP), but preliminary evidence also implicates the endocannabinoid system (ECS). Objectives We examined the association of gray matter volume loss in PDP patients with brain expression of the genes coding for CB1 (cannabinoid type 1) and CB2 ...

Perspective: Depression in Persons with Parkinson's Disease
Abstract Depression is a prevalent and disabling syndrome characterized by sustained sadness and/or anhedonia, as well as cognitive and physical symptoms. In Parkinson's disease (PD), depression is both common and clinically challenging due to overlapping symptoms and complex etiologic interactions. Major depressive disorder occurs in approximately 17%
