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.
Journal ArticleDOI

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).

Dispositional optimism, depression, disability and quality of life in Parkinson's disease.

TL;DR: High dispositional optimism predicts a satisfactory quality of life, low emotional distress and reduced disease severity in Parkinson's disease.
Journal ArticleDOI

Identification of Human Limb Viscoelasticity using Robotics Methods to Support the Diagnosis of Neuromuscular Diseases

TL;DR: The method is based on a non-invasive and painless technology making use of an optical motion capture system and an associated skeletal model to record the human motion and compute its kinematics and its dynamics.
Journal ArticleDOI

Depression and posture in patients with Parkinson's disease.

TL;DR: It is suggested that stooped posture, especially from the pelvis level, could be a marker of depression in patients with PD.
Journal ArticleDOI

Functional mapping in PD and PSP for sustained phonation and phoneme tasks

TL;DR: The failure of the executive fronto-striatal network would lead to increased activation of other areas in PD, but in PSP, there is a widespread cortical dysfunction.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effect of Level of Presentation to Listeners on Scaled Speech Intelligibility of Speakers with Dysarthria

TL;DR: The findings suggest that an increase in presentation level alone does not result in significant improvement in speech intelligibility ratings, and should be considered by considering clinical implications in conducting speech therapy with emphasis on intensity variation.
