Mashup Score: 1Longitudinal observational study of boxing therapy in Parkinson’s disease, including adverse impacts of the COVID-19 lockdown - BMC Neurology - 3 year(s) ago
Background Parkinson’s Disease (PD) is a highly prevalent neurodegenerative disease whose incidence is increasing with an aging population. One of the most serious manifestations of PD is gait instability, leading to falls and subsequent complications that can be debilitating, even fatal. Boxing therapy (BT) uses gait and balance exercises to improve ambulation in people with PD, though its…

Mashup Score: 1
Background The purpose of this study was to describe the effects of COVID-19 social distancing on the function, health, and well-being of people with Parkinson disease (PD), and test the association of these effects with patients’ activation levels, i.e., their skills and confidence in managing their health. Methods Community-dwelling individuals with PD answered an anonymous web-based survey….

Mashup Score: 0National registry for amyotrophic lateral sclerosis: a systematic review for structuring population registries of motor neuron diseases - 3 year(s) ago
Background This article comprises a systematic review of the literature that aims at researching and analyzing the frequently applied guidelines for structuring national databases of epidemiological surveillance for motor neuron diseases, especially Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS). Methods We searched for articles published from January 2015 to September 2019 on online databases as PubMed -…

Mashup Score: 0Increased cerebrospinal fluid adenosine 5'-triphosphate in patients with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis - 3 year(s) ago
Background Extracellular adenosine 5′-triphosphate (ATP) has been suggested to cause neuroinflammation and motor neuron degeneration by activating microglia and astrocytes in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). Since we have developed a highly sensitive ATP assay system, we examined cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) ATP levels in patients with ALS whether it can be a useful biomarker in ALS. Methods…

Mashup Score: 1Case report of homozygous E200D mutation of PRNP in apparently sporadic Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease - 3 year(s) ago
Background Inherited prion diseases are rare autosomal dominant disorders associated with diverse clinical presentations. All are associated with mutation of the gene that encodes prion protein (PRNP). Homozygous mutations with atypical clinical phenotypes have been described but are extremely rare. Case presentation A Chinese patient presented with a rapidly progressive cognitive and motor…

Mashup Score: 0Increase of blood-brain barrier leakage is related to cognitive decline in vascular mild cognitive impairment - 3 year(s) ago
Background Blood-brain barrier (BBB) breakdown, as an early biomarker for vascular mild cognitive impairment (vMCI), has only been validated by a few studies. The aim of this study was to investigate whether compromised BBB integrity is involved in vMCI patients, and detect the relationship between BBB breakdown and cognitive function. BBB leakage in vMCI was explored, and the relationship…

Mashup Score: 1The relationship between consciousness and the ascending reticular activating system in patients with traumatic brain injury - 4 year(s) ago
We investigated the relationship between consciousness and the ascending reticular activating system (ARAS) by using diffusion tensor tractography (DTT) in patients with traumatic brain injury (TBI). Twenty-six patients with TBI and 13 healthy control subjects were recruited for this study. Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) scores were used for evaluation of subject consciousness state at the chronic…
