Abstract The dynamics of the resting brain exhibit transitions between a small number discrete networks, each remaining stable for tens to hundreds milliseconds. These functional microstates are thought be building blocks spontaneous consciousness. electroencephalogram (EEG) is useful tool imaging microstates, and EEG microstate analysis can potentially give insight into altered underpinning cognitive impairment in disorders such as Alzheimer’s disease (AD). Since non-invasive relatively...
<h3>Background and Objective</h3> A variety of neurological disorders has been reported as presentations or complications COVID-19 infection. The objective this study was to determine their incidence dynamics long-term functional outcome. <h3>Methods</h3> Neuro-COVID Italy a multicentre, observational, cohort with ambispective recruitment prospective follow-up. Consecutive hospitalized patients presenting new associated infection (neuro-COVID), independently from respiratory severity, were...
In August 2020, Sputnik V was registered as Gam-COVID-Vac by the Russian Ministry of Health, and since December 2020 it has been distributed in 61 countries worldwide. On 25 February 2021, Republic San Marino started its vaccination campaign, which includes V. Our aim to describe adverse events following immunization (AEFIs) with this vaccine through participant-based active surveillance country.Beginning from 4 March 8 April a nationwide study conducted on Marino's population aged 18-89...
Emotion processing impairment is a common non-motor symptom in Parkinson's Disease (PD). Previous literature reported conflicting results concerning, particular, the performance for different emotions, relation with cognitive and neuropsychiatric symptoms affected stage of processing. This study aims at assessing emotion recognition discrimination PD. Recognition six facial expressions was studied order to clarify its relationship motor, symptoms. Sensitivity discriminating happy fearful...
Objectives: Neurocognitive disorders in Parkinson’s disease (PD) are common and heterogeneous. The aim of this study was to use a data-driven method describe different cognitive phenotypes PD explore anxiety, depression, motor disturbances across the profiles. Method: Latent profile analysis applied neuropsychological performances 65 patients with idiopathic assessed by means battery tests that encompass measures attention, memory, executive functions, social cognition, language,...
Abstract OBJECTIVE To assess the safety of Sputnik V (Gam-COVID-Vac) COVID-19 vaccine through participant-based active surveillance from Republic San Marino vaccination campaign. DESIGN AND SETTING This is a nation-wide cohort study in to monitor any Adverse Events Following Immunisation (AEFI) with V. PARTICIPANTS Adults aged 18-89 years who had at least one dose administered and responded or accessed an e-questionnaire sent via email, QR-code were live/phone interviewed about 7 days after...
Abstract Acquired prosopagnosia is usually a consequence of bilateral or right hemisphere lesions and often associated with topographical disorientation dyschromatopsia. Left temporo-occipital sometimes result in face recognition disorder but context visual object agnosia spared familiarity feelings for faces, left-handers. We describe patient left hemorrhagic lesion unexpectedly resulting deficit familiarity, which could represent mild form associative prosopagnosia. Our failed to feel even...
Gam-COVID-Vac is the world's first registered vector vaccine against COVID-19 based on a combination of two heterologous adenoviruses. It was chosen by Republic San Marino as main tool in its vaccination campaign, which started 25 February 2021. Our aim to build up ROCCA study, focused older population, describing adverse effects following immunisation (AEFIs) rates and characteristics all age groups for time real-world context.An active surveillance study recipients at least one dose...
The Republic of San Marino COVID-19 vaccination campaign used Gam-COVID-Vac and Pfizer-BioNTech vaccines. To assess adverse events following immunization (AEFIs), approximately 6000 vaccine recipients were monitored by the ROCCA study, including subgroups with Parkinson's Disease (PD) Multiple Sclerosis (MS). purpose this study is to evaluate short-term AEFIs through a 1-month follow-up. We conducted longitudinal using active surveillance safety profiles vaccines in PD MS patients....
Abstract INTRODUCTION Elucidating and better understanding functional biomarkers of Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is crucial. By analysing a detailed longitudinal dataset, this study aimed to create model-based toolset characterise understand the conversion mild cognitive impairment (MCI) AD. METHODS EEG, MRI, neuropsychological data were collected from participants in San Marino: AD (n = 10), MCI 20), controls 11). Across two additional years, classified as converters or non-converters. RESULTS...
Abstract Introduction Electroencephalogram (EEG) is a potentially useful clinical tool for aiding diagnosis of Alzheimer’s disease (AD). We hypothesized we can increase the accuracy EEG AD using microstates, which are epochs quasi-stability at millisecond scale. Methods was collected from two independent cohorts and control participants cohort mild cognitive impairment (MCI) patients with four-year follow-up. Microstates were analysed, including novel measure complexity. Results Microstate...
A variety of neurological disorders has been reported as presentations or complications COVID-19 infection. The NEURO-COVID study is a multi-center cohort associated with conducted in 51 centers Italy, sponsored by the Italian Society Neurology (SIN). We present an interim analysis hospitalized adult patients infection, defined positive SARS-CoV-2 test independently from clinical severity, and concomitant newly diagnosed disorders. Patients were recruited March 1, 2020 to 26, 2021 18...
