We quantitatively investigated the effect of carbidopa/levodopa (25/100) on physical fatigue during finger tapping and force generation in a double-blind, placebo-controlled crossover study. Parkinson's disease (PD) subjects were randomly assigned to carbidopa/levodopa or placebo for Visit 1 or 2
BACKGROUND
Fatigue is a common complaint in Parkinson disease (PD). We investigated fatigue in a cohort of previously untreated patients with early PD enrolled in the Earlier vs Later Levodopa (ELLDOPA) clinical trial.
METHODS
A total of 361 patients were enrolled in the randomized, double-blind,
The endogenous dopamine system is a potent modulator of motor function and learning. Previous studies have demonstrated that, in the elderly, age-related degeneration of the nigrostriatal dopamine system may contribute to deficits in execution of skilled motor functions. The present double-blind,
BACKGROUND
Fatigue is disabling in Parkinson disease. It is often associated with other non-motor symptoms, but little is known about its underlying pathophysiology.
OBJECTIVE
To investigate neuroimaging (using dopaminergic and cholinergic PET) and clinical factors associated with fatigue severity
OBJECTIVE
To measure fatigue quantitatively during continuous motor performance in patients with PD.
BACKGROUND
Enhanced fatigue on performance of motor tasks is a very frequent and disabling complaint of PD patients, and is poorly characterized and understood. Recent evidence suggests a role for
Levodopa-induced dyskinesia can result in significant functional disability and reduced quality of life in patients with Parkinson's disease (PD). The goal of this study was to determine if the addition of once-daily ropinirole 24-hour prolonged-release (n = 104) in PD patients not optimally
High-frequency deep brain stimulation (DBS) of the subthalamic nucleus (STN) improves the motor symptoms of Parkinson's disease (PD). Opposite changes in mood, such as mania or depression, have been reported after surgery, but it is not known whether these side effects are specifically related to
Parkinson's disease (PD) patient presents with both motor and non-motor symptoms. This was descriptive type of interventional study carried out in the department of Neurology, Mymensingh Medical College Hospital, Mymensingh, Bangladesh from January 2009 to December 2010. Among the total 59 cases, 51
OBJECTIVE
To determine the efficacy of standard levodopa combined with controlled release levodopa and entacapone in controlling end-of-dose symptoms in Parkinson's disease.
METHODS
A single-blind cross over design was used to compare the duration of action for three pharmacological combinations:
The metabotropic glutamate receptor 5-negative allosteric modulator dipraglurant reduces levodopa-induced dyskinesia in the MPTP-macaque model. The objective of this study was to assess the safety, tolerability (primary objective), and efficacy (secondary objective) of dipraglurant on
This phase 2 randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study evaluated the efficacy and safety of the nicotinic acetylcholine receptor α7 agonist AQW051 in patients with Parkinson's disease and levodopa-induced dyskinesia.
Patients with idiopathic Parkinson's disease and moderate to severe
BACKGROUND
We report 4 patients with young-onset monogenetic parkinsonism, each of whom was misdiagnosed with either a psychogenic movement disorder or chronic fatigue syndrome for 10 to 23 years after the onset of their first symptoms.
RESULTS
Once the diagnosis was eventually made, they all had a
BACKGROUND
Non-motor symptoms are a major contributor to quality of life in patients with advanced Parkinson's disease (PD). Duodenal levodopa infusion (DLI) has been shown to alleviate motor fluctuations, but data on its possible effect on non-motor symptoms are scarce. The aim of the study was to
Sleep problems in patients with advanced Parkinson's disease (PD) have a deleterious impact on quality of life.To assess the effect of levodopa-carbidopa intestinal gel (LCIG) infusion on sleep quality in advanced PD Introduction. Fatigue syndrome is one of the nonmotor symptoms in Parkinson's disease (PD). The aim of the study was assessment of prevalence of fatigue syndrome in PD and answering the question what are the independent risk factors connected with intensity of fatigue in PD. Methods. 114 patients
