Arousal, motor control, and Parkinson’s disease
This review highlights the most important discovery in the reticular activating system (RAS) in the last 10 years, the manifestation of gamma (γ) band activity in cells of the RAS, especially in the pedunculopontine nucleus (PPN), which is in charge of the high frequency states of waking and rapid eye movement sleep. This discovery is critical to understanding the modulation of movement by the ...
متن کاملStriatal Dopamine Depletion Patterns and Early Non-Motor Burden in Parkinsons Disease
BACKGROUND The mechanism underlying non-motor symptoms in Parkinson's disease has not yet been elucidated. In this study, we hypothesized that Parkinson patients with more non-motor symptoms have a different pattern of striatal dopamine depletion, particularly in areas other than the sensorimotor striatum, compared to those with fewer non-motor symptoms. METHODS We conducted a prospective sur...
متن کاملEmotional Arousal and Motor Performance
One of the most widely accepted principles of human behavior is that people perform best when "motivated." This principle is validated when keenly interested children exhibit greater enthusiasm and performance on school tasks than less interested children. Highly excited individuals performing unexpected feats or attaining unusual levels of performance is further evidence. However, empirical ev...
متن کاملEnvironmental and familial risk factors of Parkinsons disease: case-control study.
BACKGROUND While the cause of Parkinson's disease (PD) remains unknown, evidence suggests certain environmental factors, such as well water drinking, herbicides, pesticides exposure and neurotoxins, may trigger the chain of oxidative reactions culminating in the death of dopaminergic neurons in substantia nigra to cause Parkinsonism. To investigate the possible impact of environmental risk fact...
متن کاملPremotor Symptoms as Predictors of Outcome in Parkinsons Disease: A Case-Control Study
BACKGROUND To evaluate the association between the premotor symptoms and the prognosis of PD. METHODS A total of 1213 patients who were diagnosed of PD from January 2001 to December 2008 were selected from the Taiwan's National Health Insurance Research Database. Patients were traced back to determine the presence of premotor symptoms, including rapid eye movement sleep behavior disorder (RBD...
