Introduction: DNAJB6 mutations cause an autosomal dominant myopathy that can manifest as limb-girdle muscular dystrophy (LGMD1D/1E) or distal-predominant myopathy. In the majority of patients this manifests in adulthood and shows vacuolar changes on muscle biopsy. Methods: Clinical, electrophysiological, pathological, molecular findings are reported. Results: We report a 56-year-old woman, who, like 3 other family members, became symptomatic childhood with slowly progressive weakness, normal...
Playing musical instruments may have positive effects on motor, emotional, and cognitive deficits in patients with Parkinson's disease (PD). This pilot study examined the feasibility of a six-week nontraditional guitar instruction program for individuals PD. Twenty-six participants idiopathic PD (Age: 67.22 ± 8.07; 17 males) were randomly assigned to two groups (intervention first or 6 weeks usual care control exposure) stepwise exposure intervention condition cross-over at six weeks....
Abstract Neuromelanin‐sensitive magnetic resonance imaging quantitative analysis methods have provided promising biomarkers that can noninvasively quantify degeneration of the substantia nigra in patients with Parkinson's disease. However, there is a need to systematically evaluate performance manual and automated quantification approaches. We whether spatial, signal‐intensity, or subject specific abnormality measures using either atlas based manually traced identification better...
The theoretical basis of reactive oxygen species and their impact on health issues are relatively easy to understand by biomedical students. detection requires expensive equipment, the procedures time consuming costly, results hard interpret. Moreover, cause-and-effect relationships in living system not so evident. In this report, we adapted a two-step procedure detect anion superoxide radicals hydrogen peroxide generation lymphocytes exposed paraquat using nitroblue tetrazolium salt...
Objective:To describe the impact a global pandemic has had on teaching movement disorders program, as well its subsequent transition to telemedicine.Methods:In midst of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic, we transitioned our fellowship program virtually over course few days. Here parameters used for telemedicine fellow supervised clinic visit 2 months. Fellow's input was obtained from brief survey at end experience. Faculty's experience collected upon independent faculty...
Movement disorders (MDs) have been described in demyelinating diseases (DDs). However, data is lacking the effective treatment of these MD as well a potential correlation between DD lesions localization and phenomenology its response to treatment.Retrospective review 185 patients with seen at our center over period 7 years. Clinical imaging, medications, therapeutic responses both treatments were reviewed.Of patients, 62 excluded because diagnosis spasticity without any other MD. One hundred...
Introduction Only a few studies have explored the quality of life (QoL) individuals with Parkinson's disease (PD) and Huntington's (HD), along QoL burden on their caregivers, in context group drumming sessions.
Abstract Rhythm-based therapeutic interventions have widely been used in patients with neurologic disorders to address motor and quality of life outcomes. Although group drumming has explored several pilot studies Parkinson disease (PD) Huntington (HD), caregiver burden their quality-of-life outcomes received less attention. Therefore, we aimed evaluate the impact on symptoms PD HD as well caregivers. A total 17 participants (PD = 6, caregivers 3, 2) attended 60-minute drum-based music...
