Movement Disorder Society-sponsored revision of the Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale (MDS-UPDRS): scale presentation and clinimetric testing results.

Christopher G. Goetz, +87 more
- 15 Nov 2008 - 
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

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).

Assessment of Motor Impairments in Early Untreated Parkinson's Disease Patients: The Wearable Electronics Impact

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that subtle motor impairments, occurring in de novo patients, can be evidenced by means of wearable sensors, providing clinicians with instrumental tools as suitable supports for early diagnosis, and subsequent management.

The Pietà study: epidemiological investigation on successful brain aging in Caeté (MG), Brazil. Methods and baseline cohort characteristics.

TL;DR: The Pietà cohort is representative of the oldest-old Brazilian population and may contribute to increase the knowledge about healthy and pathological brain aging in the youngest-old.
Journal ArticleDOI

The frontal assessment battery as a tool for evaluation of frontal lobe dysfunction in patients with Parkinson disease.

TL;DR: In a sample of patients with PD, the FAB correlated with dysfunction in a variety of cognitive domains including attention, memory, and executive functions, an advantage that can be used in clinical practice.
Journal ArticleDOI

Structural brain abnormalities in patients with Parkinson’s disease with visual hallucinations: A comparative voxel-based analysis

TL;DR: Results reinforce the theoretical concept of a top-down visual processing in the genesis of VHs in PD, where an abnormal frontal cortex, particularly left sided insula, frontal opercular, trigonal frontal gyrus and orbital frontal would make PD patients vulnerable to hallucinations.
