Insertion of methyl methacrylate polymer into newly reamed bony cavities has sometimes resulted in profound hypotension, cardiac arrest, or sudden death which are more common in patients with hemodynamic instability or hypovolemia. In paralysis agitans(Parkinson's disease), dramatic worsening of the

Different groups worldwide have observed in recent years that stereotactic implantation of fetal tissue can ameliorate the clinical symptoms of Parkinson's disease. The authors therefore investigated whether implantation of fetal ventral mesencephalic (FVM) tissue via open surgery is also capable of

Levodopa (l-DOPA) is the most effective pharmacologic agent in Parkinson's disease and remains the "gold standard". Nevertheless, in long-term treatments, dyskinesias and motor complications can emerge. In this work, the combined use of l-DOPA methylester hydrochloride prodrug (LDME) with

We assessed the oropharyngeal swallowing ability in 8 patients with Parkinson's disease (PD), 8 patients with progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP), and 10 age-matched healthy controls (CTL) using videofluorography (VF). In VF studies, PD and PSP patients demonstrated food pooling on the tongue,

Parkinson's disease (PD) is a neurodegenerative, chronic, and progressive disease, common in the elderly. The catechol-O-methyltransferase (COMT) is a monomeric enzyme involved in dopamine (DA) degradation, the neurotransmitter in deficit in patients with PD. The reference treatment of PD

Parkinson's disease (PD) is a progressive disease of the nervous system, and is currently managed through commercial tablets that do not sufficiently enable controlled, sustained release capabilities. It is hypothesized that a drug delivery system that provides controlled and sustained release of PD

The concept of vascular parkinsonism (VP) has been highly controversial since the initial paper by Critchley in 1929. This review tentatively delineates the extent of the spectrum of VP. Much confusion has arisen owing to the lack of clear definitions of parkinsonism, "atypical parkinsonism" and

The human rectum represents a body cavity in which drugs can be easily introduced and retained and from which absorption is well possible. There are important therapeutic reasons why it is sometimes preferable to give a drug rectally rather than orally, e.g. in cases of nausea and vomiting.

A luminescent double recognition nanoprobe is described as a new strategy for the selective determination of chiral molecules. C-dots/Ir/Au fluorescent nanoparticles, synthesised under hydrothermal conditions, are used as a high-performance probe in combination with a molecularly imprinted polymer
