Gait disturbance is a cardinal symptom in patients with Parkinson's disease. Among the gait disturbances, freezing of unique and troublesome symptom, but its mechanism unclear. We compared brain perfusion images using three-dimensional stereotactic surface projection analysis N-isopropyl-p-123I iodoamphetamine single photon emission computed tomography between disease those without. Twenty-four cases (freezing group) gait, 31 Hoehn Yahr stage-matched (no without were studied. Bilateral...
The objective was to compare brain perfusion image using 3-dimensional stereotactic surface projection analysis of N-isopropyl-p-123I iodoamphetamine single photon emission computed tomography between Parkinson's disease patients with a high frontal assessment battery score and those low score. Thirty nondemented were studied. Patients divided into 2 groups: high-scoring group whose 12 or more low-scoring 11 less. included 21 patients, the 9 patients. They underwent tomography, we analyzed...
To compare brain perfusion image using three-dimensional stereotactic surface projection (3D-SSP) analysis of N-isopropyl-p-123I iodoamphetamine (123I-IMP) single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) between patients with Parkinson's disease orthostatic hypotension and those without hypotension.Fifteen 13 were studied. We compared the two groups by 3D-SSP.Bilateral anterior cingulate gyrus was significantly decreased to that hypotension.The disorder may participate in autonomic...
Objective We compared brain perfusion image using 3D-SSP analysis of 123I-IMP SPECT between Parkinson's disease patients with auditory verbal hallucination and those without hallucination. Methods Eighty-three cases were studied. In 6 these patients, was noted. Among them, four had two other elementary Auditory not found in the 77 cases. Results Right thalamic significantly increased group to that lacked Conclusion disease, right hyperactive state may be related
Background Intellectual deterioration occurs in 10-40% of patients with Parkinson's disease. However, there are many conflicting studies on its relation brain perfusion and the nature this dementing process remains controversial.Objective To compare cortical by SPECT using 123I-IMP between disease dementia those without to investigate correlation various areas.Methods Fifty-two cases 10 control were studied. The group included 30 22 cases.,Results By multiple logistic regression method, we...
Paroxysmal sympathetic hyperactivity (PSH) is a clinical syndrome of episodic hyperactivities following severe acquired brain injury. It characterized by paroxysmal hyperthermia, tachycardia, hypertension, tachypnea, excessive diaphoresis, and specific posturing. Although the persistence PSH increases risk several adverse events worsens prognosis, pharmacological treatments for have not yet been clearly established. We report valuable case 60-year-old man who developed hypoxic...
Irritability, impulsivity, and agitation in elderly patients with dementia are highly prevalent extremely burdening for patients, caregivers, medical staff. In general hospitals, they have been one of the major problems that develop disturb care treatment. However, mechanisms underlying these symptoms remain unclear, there is no established actual clinical practice, antipsychotic drugs mood stabilizers mainly used as pharmacotherapies symptoms, but adverse effects often problematic. We...
