Disexecutive functions and depression in patients with Parkinson disease: the impact on rehabilitation outcome.

TL;DR: The patients’ executive function impairment or moderate-to-severe depressive symptoms did not seem to interfere with the outcome of the intensive physical and occupational rehabilitation, and these aspects in patients without dementia should not be considered a contraindication to an intensive rehabilitation program.
Journal ArticleDOI

Impact of Parkinson's disease on proprioceptively based on-line movement control.

TL;DR: Medicated and non-medicated PD patients showed a greater mean level of final 3D errors than healthy controls when proprioception was the sole source of information guiding the movement, but this difference reached significance only for medicatedPD patients.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cognitive profiles in Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI) patients associated with Parkinson's disease and cognitive disorders.

TL;DR: The findings demonstrate that the cognitive deficit profile is specific for each of the two disorders: Memory impairment was a typical feature in aMCI patients while MCI-PD patients suffered from executive functions and visuospatial attention deficits.
Journal ArticleDOI

Impairment of script comprehension in Lewy body spectrum disorders.

TL;DR: Findings extend prior work on script processing to patients with Lewy body spectrum disorders and highlight the potential impact of frontal/executive dysfunction on the daily lives of affected patients.

TL;DR: The combined clinimetric results of this study support the validity of the MDS‐UPDRS for rating PD.

Colonic inflammation in Parkinson's disease.

TL;DR: Findings provide evidence that enteric inflammation occurs in Parkinson's disease and further reinforce the role of peripheral inflammation in the initiation and/or the progression of the disease.
Journal ArticleDOI

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).
