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.

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).

The impact of Lee Silverman Voice Treatment (LSVT LOUD®) on voice, communication, and participation: Findings from a prospective, longitudinal study.

TL;DR: It is suggested that LSVT LOUD® promotes an increased sense of personal control over the communication difficulties resulting from PD by decreasing voice handicap and improving communication effectiveness and communicative participation.

Prevalence of sleep disorders in Parkinson's disease patients in two neurology referral hospitals in Ethiopia.

TL;DR: In Ethiopian PD patients, the prevalence of those with severe sleep disorders is the highest reported to date, and this finding is amongst the highest in the world.
Journal ArticleDOI

The effects of acute tryptophan depletion on neuropsychological function, mood and movement in the healthy elderly

TL;DR: The effects of ATD were not significantly different between age groups, suggesting that there is relatively little functional change across these age ranges, and there was more evidence of an adverse effect of ATd on psychomotor function and working memory compared with studies in much younger age groups.
Journal ArticleDOI

Consistency in Administration and Response for the Backward Push and Release Test: A Clinical Assessment of Postural Responses.

TL;DR: Based on results, algorithms to instrument the backward push and release test using inertial movement sensors to collect more sensitive measures of postural responses than observational clinical rating scales will be created.
Journal ArticleDOI

Correlations between abnormal iron metabolism and non-motor symptoms in Parkinson’s disease

TL;DR: Serums levels of iron and transferrin could be peripheral markers for depression and anxiety in PD, and abnormal iron metabolism might play a crucial role in the pathogenesis of depression and Anxiety in PD.
