Parkinson's disease (PD) causes motor and non-motor symptoms such as hyposmia, which is evaluated through olfactory tests in the clinical practice.
A correlation between worse functional outcomes in Parkinson's disease (PD) patients with cerebrovascular (CVD) or the Akinetic-rigid phenotype has been argued recent studies. We aimed to evaluate association of cerebral hemodynamics impairments, assessed by Transcranial Color-coded Doppler sonography (TCCS), on PD different phenotypes and risk factors for CVD.Idiopathic (n = 51) were divided into motor subtypes: (AR) 27) Tremor-dominant (TD) 24) two groups regarding vascular factors: when...
Leptospirosis is a bacterial disease of global distribution and multiple presentations ranging from an unapparent process to lethal forms. The main reservoir this anthropozoonosis, whose causing microorganism the Leptospira sp., rodent associated with poor sanitation conditions. Floods heavy rainfall are great sources that favor man’s contact contaminated water directly related seasonal higher incidence its strong association professional activities. This qualitative quantitative study was...
ABSTRACT We report two cases of Brazilian patients (a 22-year-old male and a 48-year-old male) with ischemic stroke, whose arterial vascular study echocardiographic investigation did not reveal any steno-occlusive disease or typical cardioembolic finding, such as atrial fibrillation myocardial dysfunction. A transcranial Doppler ultrasound transesophageal echocardiogram showed patent foramen ovale (PFO), the laboratory screening for coagulation abnormalities heterozygosity MTHFR C677T A1298C...
Recent epidemiological studies have revealed a correlation between atypical features and worse functional outcomes in Parkinson's disease (PD) patients with cerebrovascular (CVD). We aimed to evaluate the brain hemodynamics of PD risk factors for CVD using Doppler ultrasonography. In this prospective pilot study, we randomly included 27 outpatients diagnosed PD. Transcranial color-coded sonography (TCCS) examinations were performed, obtaining measurements middle cerebral artery mean flow...
