Hyposmia in progressive supranuclear palsy
Movement Disorders, 2010AbstractPrevious studies suggested that olfaction is normal in progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP). We applied the University of Pennsylvania Smell Identification Test (UPSIT) to 36 patients with PSP who scored more than 18 on the Mini Mental State Examination (MMSE), 140 patients with nondemented Parkinson's disease (PD) and 126 controls.

The neuropathology of progressive supranuclear palsy
1994The macroscopical, histological, ultrastructural and immunocytochemical features of progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP) are reviewed. Recent investigations have revealed important differences in the distribution, ultrastructure and immunocytochemical profile of neurofibrillary tangles in PSP and in Alzheimer's disease.

Update on progressive supranuclear palsy
Current Neurology and Neuroscience Reports, 2004A better understanding of the challenges in the diagnosis of progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP), the most common atypical parkinsonian neurodegenerative disorder, has led to improving its diagnostic accuracy. Similarly, a better understanding of the role of tau mutations, mitochondrial complex I inhibitors, oxidative injury, and inflammation in ...

Progressive Supranuclear Palsy: an Update
Current Neurology and Neuroscience Reports, 2018Progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP) is a 4R tau neuropathologic entity. While historically defined by the presence of a vertical supranuclear gaze palsy and falls in the first symptomatic year, clinicopathologic studies identify alternate presenting phenotypes.

The Epidemiology of Progressive Supranuclear Palsy
2008Publisher Summary This chapter describes that the incidence of progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP) is approximately 1 per 100,000 and the prevalence is approximately 5 per 100,000. Most patients ascertained by such community-based surveys were not previously diagnosed as having PSP, testament to the low sensitivity to the diagnosis on the part of ...

Neuropathology of Progressive Supranuclear Palsy
2008Publisher Summary This chapter describes progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP) as an atypical parkinsonian disorder associated with progressive axial rigidity, vertical gaze palsy, dysarthria, and dysphagia. A frontal lobe syndrome and subcortical dementia are present in some cases.
