Decreased event-based prospective memory functioning in individuals with Parkinson's disease.

TL;DR: In PD patients, the ability to retrieve the target words in the episodic memory task was associated, at a lesser extent than in healthy controls, with the able to activate the prospective intention at the occurrence of a target word.

Predictors of caregivers’ burden of Parkinson’s disease in India: experience of a tertiary care center in India

TL;DR: The total number of caregivers was found to be an important predictor for reducing CB and the presence of multiple caregivers is a phenomenon which has not been studied till now.

COGTIPS: a double-blind randomized active controlled trial protocol to study the effect of home-based, online cognitive training on cognition and brain networks in Parkinson's disease.

TL;DR: This large-scale cognitive training study in PD patients evaluates the efficacy in relieving cognitive dysfunction, and the underlying mechanisms, in a large group of PD patients.

Visual Priming and Visual Hallucinations in Parkinson’s Disease. Evidence for Normal Top-Down Processes:

TL;DR: Novel experimental priming tasks in which top-down verbal cues were used to prime the bottom-up recognition of partial or ambiguous pictures showed that VH in PD are not associated with relatively greaterTop-down activation, and that the interaction between top- down and bottom- up processes is intact.

Effects of pedunculopontine nucleus area stimulation on gait disorders in Parkinson's disease

TL;DR: Although freezing of gait can be improved by low-frequency electrical stimulation of the pedunculopontine nucleus area in some patients with Parkinson's disease, the overall results are disappointing compared to the high levels of expectation raised by previous open label studies.

The Clinically Important Difference on the Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale

TL;DR: In this paper, a cross-sectional analysis of the CIDs for UPDRS total and motor scores was performed on patients with Parkinson disease (PD) using distribution-and anchor-based approaches based on the following external standards: disability (10% on the Schwab and England Activities of Daily Living Scale), disease stage (1 stage on the Hoehn and Yahr Scale), and quality of life (1 SD on the 12-Item Short Form Health Survey).
