Inhibition of subliminally primed responses is mediated by the caudate and thalamus : evidence from functional MRI and Huntington's disease

TL;DR: The finding that Huntington's disease patients with greater chorea were disinhibited is consistent with the theory that chorea arises from selective degeneration of striatal projections to the lateral globus pallidus, while the exaggerated inhibitory effect for patients with little or no chorea may be due to additional degeneration to the medial globus Pallidus.
Journal ArticleDOI

Prediction of cognition in Parkinson's disease with a clinical-genetic score : a longitudinal analysis of nine cohorts

Ganqiang Liu, +115 more

TL;DR: A prediction algorithm for global cognitive impairment (defined as Mini Mental State Examination ≤25) using data from nine cohorts of patients with Parkinson's disease from North America and Europe assessed between 1986 and 2016 is built.
Journal ArticleDOI

UCHL-1 is not a Parkinson's disease susceptibility gene

TL;DR: In a large case-control study in white individuals (3,023 subjects), the S18Y variant was not protective against Parkinson's disease under any genetic model of inheritance, and a cumulative meta-analysis showed a trend toward a null effect.
Journal ArticleDOI

Genetic risk of Parkinson disease and progression:: An analysis of 13 longitudinal cohorts

Hirotaka Iwaki, +40 more

TL;DR: Evidence is provided that alleles associated with Parkinson disease risk, in particular GBA variants, also contribute to the heterogeneity of multiple motor and nonmotor aspects.
