Effects of Voluntary Exercise on Motor Function in Parkinson\'s disease Model of Rats
Background. Previous surveys have shown that motor deficits precede the classical motor symptoms seen in Parkinson’s disease (PD) and that physical exercise may have beneficial effects on PD. Objectives. Here, we evaluated the potential of voluntary exercise to improve motor deficit in experimentally-induced Parkinson’s disease (6-OHDA) rats. Methods. Forty adult Wistar rats were ...
متن کاملUsing eye movements to assess brain function in mice
Examining eye movements is an important part of the neurological evaluation of humans; the distribution of the neural circuits that control these movements is such that they are disrupted--often in highly characteristic fashions--by many disease processes. Technical advances have made it possible to measure accurately the eye movements of mice, so it is now possible to use the detective power o...

متن کاملTranstelephonic home blood pressure to assess the monoamine oxidase-B inhibitor rasagiline in Parkinson disease.
Monoamine oxidase inhibitors are associated with dietary tyramine interactions that can induce hypertensive crises. Rasagiline mesylate is a novel irreversible selective monoamine oxidase type B inhibitor for Parkinson disease that may have a low risk of interaction with dietary tyramine because of its selectivity. To study interactions of rasagiline with diets unrestricted in tyramine-containi...
متن کاملDoppler tissue imaging to assess systolic function in Chagas' disease.
OBJECTIVE To assess the usefulness of Doppler tissue imaging (DTI) for evaluating the systolic function of chagasic patients with and without electrocardiographic abnormalities, in comparision with echocardiographic study. METHODS We studied 77 patients divided into 3 groups as follows: group 1 - control; group 2 - chagasic patients with normal electrocardiographic findings; and group 3 - cha...
