Journal ArticleDOI
Phenomenology and classification of dystonia: a consensus update.
Alberto Albanese,Kailash P. Bhatia,Susan B. Bressman,Mahlon R. DeLong,Stanley Fahn,Victor S.C. Fung,Mark Hallett,Joseph Jankovic,Hyder A. Jinnah,Christine Klein,Anthony E. Lang,Jonathan W. Mink,Jan K. Teller +12 more
TL;DR: An international panel consisting of investigators with years of experience in this field that reviewed the definition and classification of dystonia provides a new general definition and proposes a new classification and encourages clinicians and researchers to use these innovative definitions and test them in the clinical setting on a variety of patients with Dystonia.
Journal ArticleDOI
A double‐blind, placebo‐controlled study to assess the mitochondria‐targeted antioxidant MitoQ as a disease‐modifying therapy in Parkinson's disease
Barry J. Snow,Fiona L. Rolfe,Michelle M. Lockhart,Chris Frampton,John D. O'Sullivan,Victor S.C. Fung,Robin A.J. Smith,Michael P. Murphy,Kenneth Martin Taylor +8 more
TL;DR: MitoQ does not slow the progression of PD, and this finding should be taken into account when considering the oxidative stress hypothesis for the pathogenesis of PD.
Journal ArticleDOI
Clinical course, therapeutic responses and outcomes in relapsing MOG antibody-associated demyelination
Sudarshini Ramanathan,Shekeeb S. Mohammad,Esther M Tantsis,Tina Kim Nguyen,Vera Merheb,Victor S.C. Fung,Victor S.C. Fung,Owen White,Simon Broadley,Jeannette Lechner-Scott,Steve Vucic,Steve Vucic,Andrew P.D. Henderson,Michael Barnett,Stephen W. Reddel,Fabienne Brilot,Russell C. Dale +16 more
TL;DR: Relapsing MOG antibody-associated demyelination is strongly associated with ON across all age groups and ADEM in children, and patients are highly responsive to steroids, but vulnerable to relapse on steroid reduction and cessation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Clinical and physiological assessments for elucidating falls risk in Parkinson's disease
TL;DR: A fall risk screen for people with PD using routine clinical measures and an explanatory (physiological) fall risk assessment for guiding fall prevention interventions are devised.
Journal ArticleDOI
Radiological differentiation of optic neuritis with myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein antibodies, aquaporin-4 antibodies, and multiple sclerosis
Sudarshini Ramanathan,Kristina Prelog,Elizabeth H Barnes,Esther M Tantsis,Stephen W. Reddel,Andrew P.D. Henderson,Steve Vucic,Mark P. Gorman,Leslie Benson,Gulay Alper,Catherine J. Riney,Michael Barnett,John Parratt,Todd A. Hardy,Richard J. Leventer,Vera Merheb,Margherita Nosadini,Victor S.C. Fung,Fabienne Brilot,Russell C. Dale +19 more
TL;DR: The combination of two predictors, the absence of magnetic resonance imaging brain abnormalities and a higher lesion extent score, showed a good ability to discriminate between an autoantibody-associated ON (MOG or AQP4) and MS.
