The Role of Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy (MRS), Diffusion‐Tensor‐Imaging (DTI) and Structural MRI in the Alzheimer's Disease and Mild Cognitive Impairment Diagnosis: A Review

Journal of Magnetic Resonance Imaging, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Alzheimer's disease (AD) is one of the most common neurological disorders affecting older adults, with approximately 7.2 million cases only in the United States. This number is projected to increase to 13.8 million in the United States by 2060, leading to increased expenditures for healthcare, long‐term care and hospice services. Consequently,

Non-Invasive Brain Stimulation for Children with Autism Spectrum Disorders: A Short-Term Outcome Study

Behavioral Sciences, 2017
Non-Invasive Brain Stimulation (NIBS) is a relatively new therapeutic approach that has shown beneficial effects in Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). One question to be answered is how enduring its neuromodulatory effect could be. Twenty-four patients with

The Spectrum of Abnormal Tongue Movements: Review of Phenomenology, Etiology, and Differential Diagnosis

Movement Disorders Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Classifying abnormal tongue movements is challenging due to their varied presentations and limited visibility compared to other body parts. Accurate identification of the phenomenology guides physical examination and can point to specific diagnoses.

Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation and behavioral models of smoking addiction

Frontiers in Psychiatry, 2012
While few studies have applied transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) to smoking addiction, existing work suggests that the intervention holds promise for altering the complex system by which environmental cues interact with cravings to drive ...

Slow-Frequency Pulsed Transcranial Electrical Stimulation for Modulation of Cortical Plasticity based on Reciprocity Targeting with Precision Electrical Head Modeling

Frontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2016
In pain management as well as other clinical applications of neuromodulation, it is important to consider the timing parameters influencing activity-dependent plasticity, including pulsed versus sustained currents, as well as the spatial action of ...

Voice and Speech in Atypical Parkinsonian Disorders

Movement Disorders Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Background Motor speech disorders are early, common, and functionally limiting features of atypical parkinsonian disorders (APDs) such as progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP), corticobasal syndrome (CBS), and multiple system atrophy (MSA). These impairments are underrecognized and undertreated in neurology clinics.

Convergence Deficits in Myoclonus‐Dystonia Point to Cerebellar Impairment

Movement Disorders Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Myoclonus‐dystonia (M‐D) is a monogenic movement disorder, with proposed cerebellar dysfunction. Vergence eye movement deficits, characteristics of degenerative cerebellar disease, have not been studied in M‐D. Cerebellar transcranial alternating current stimulation (tACS) is considered a potential therapeutic approach.

Perspective: Depression in Persons with Parkinson's Disease

Movement Disorders, EarlyView.
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%
