Abstract:

Several tasks examined implicit and explicit memory in matched samples of Alzheimer's (AD) and Parkinson's disease (PD) patients, and healthy elderly subjects. Lexical priming, pursuit-rotor tracking, and a fragmented pictures test, followed by explicit memory tests, were given. AD patients were impaired on all explicit tests and on lexical priming, but were intact on pursuit-rotor tracking and the procedural learning (PL) component of the fragmented pictures test. PD patients were significantly better than AD patients on all explicit memory tests, but were selectively impaired on the PL compo

Objective: Decrease of olfactory function in Parkinson's disease (PD) is a well-investigated fact. Studies indicate that pharmacological treatment of PD fails to restore olfactory function in PD patients. The aim of this investigation was whether patients with PD would benefit from “training” with odors in terms of an improvement of their general olfactory function. It has been hypothesized that olfactory training should produce both an improved sensitivity towards the odors used in the training process and an overall increase of olfactory function.

Abstract:

There have been few studies investigating the eye movement behavior of Parkinson’s disease patients during fixation. This study objectively measured the eye movements of 36 patients with Parkinson’s disease, and 20 age matched controls. Stimuli consisted of ten standardized text passages first organized by Miller and Coleman. In addition, subjects followed a randomly displaced step jump target motion. Pendular nystagmus was found in all Parkinson’s subjects, with an average frequency of 7.44 Hz. Saccadic peak velocity and duration along the main sequence were not statistically different f

Abstract:

Two studies of voluntary movement in Parkinson's disease were carried out. In the first study, both parkinsonians and age-matched controls performed unconstrained prehensile movements in which subjects produced reaching and grasping (hand opening/closing) movements under varying conditions of movement amplitude, speed and object size. The act of prehension requires the intersegmental coordination of limb transport and grasp trajectories. Although parkinsonians were slower overall than controls, patients and controls similarly adjusted the spatial and temporal characteristics of their limb move

Abstract:

Parkinson's disease (PD) patients experience postural instability as a primary motor symptom (Parkinson, 1817). The majority of PD patients use L-dopa to treat motor symptoms associated with the disease; however, extended use of L-dopa can cause involuntary movement production termed L-dopa induced dyskinesia (LID) (Bezard et al., 2001). Recently, researchers have speculated that postural sway variability (CoP variability) is associated with clinically unapparent LID (Rocchi et al., 2004). This experiment sought to determine the relationship between CoP variability and LID in PD patients. Eigh

The central aim of this thesis was to extend current knowledge of caregiving and care receiving in older adults, by investigating negative reactions to receiving spousal care. Parkinson's disease (PD), a neuro-degenerative disorder that predominantly affects people in later life, was selected for study because PD patients and their caregivers are faced with a variety of challenges from physical and psychological symptoms of the illness, thus providing a rich ground for investigating reactions to giving and receiving care.

Abstract:

Parkinson’s disease (PD) is a neurodegenerative disorder characterized by a resting tremor combined with varying degrees of rigidity and bradykinesia. Introduced in the 1950s, thalamotomy is used as a surgical procedure to improve brain function in patients and serves as an effective treatment method for the PD tremor where connections within the thalamus are cut. In 1987, deep brain stimulation (DBS), chronic electrical stimulation of deep neural structures using electrodes, was introduced as a clinical treatment for medically refractory tremor in patients with PD.

This condition is due to the selective degradation of the dopaminergic neurons in the substantia nigra pars compacta in the midbrain, which subsequently results in the pathological symptoms namely bradykinesia, resting tremor, postural instability and rigidity. It was initially hypothesized that individuals who develop PD were exposed to an environment

Parkinson's disease (PD) is a neurodegenerative disease characterized by progressive loss of dopaminergic neurons of the substantia nigra pars compacta.

Accordingly, the main objectives of the present thesis were to (a) determine if a clinical relationship existed between tremor and performance of voluntary movements, and (b) characterize the impact of ventrola
