The Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale (UPDRS) is a subjective Parkinson's Disease (PD) physician scoring/monitoring system. To date, there is no single upper limb wearable/non-contact system that can be used objectively to assess all UPDRS-III motor system subgroups (i.e., tremor (T), rigidity (R), bradykinesia (B), gait and posture (GP), and bulbar anomalies (BA)). We evaluated the use of a non-contact hand motion tracking system for potential extraction of GP information using forearm pronation-supination (P/S) motion parameters (speed, acceleration, and frequency). Twenty-four patients with idiopathic PD participated, and their UPDRS data were recorded bilaterally by physicians. Pearson's correlation, regression analyses, and Monte Carlo validation was conducted for all combinations of UPDRS subgroups versus motion parameters. In the 262,125 regression models that were trained and tested, the models within 1% of the lowest error showed that the frequency of P/S contributes to approximately one third of all models; while speed and acceleration also contribute significantly to the prediction of GP from the left-hand motion of right handed patients. In short, the P/S better indicated GP when performed with the non-dominant hand. There was also a significant negative correlation (with medium to large effect size, range: 0.3-0.58) between the P/S speed and the single BA score for both forearms and combined UPDRS score for the dominant hand. This study highlights the potential use of wearable or non-contact systems for forearm P/S to remotely monitor and predict the GP information in PD.

High frequency oscillations in the subthalamic nucleus: A neurophysiological marker of the motor state in Parkinson's disease Özkurt, Tolga Esat; Butz, Markus; Homburger, Melanie; Elben, Saskia; Vesper, Jan; Wojtecki, Lars; Schnitzler, Alfons (2011-06-01) Increasing evidence suggests that abnormal oscillatory activity in basal ganglia and cortex plays a pivotal role in the pathophysiology of Parkinson's disease. Recordings of local field potentials from subthalamic nucleus of patients undergoing deep brain stimulation have focused on oscillations occurring at frequencies below 100 Hz in the alpha, beta and gamma range and suggested that, in particular, an increase of beta band oscillations underlies slowing of movement in Parkinson's disease. Recent findings...
Distinct oscillatory STN-cortical loops revealed by simultaneous MEG and local field potential recordings in patients with Parkinson's disease Hirschmann, J.; Özkurt, Tolga Esat; Butz, M.; Homburger, M.; Elben, S.; Hartmann, C. J.; Vesper, J.; Wojtecki, L.; Schnitzler, A. (2011-04-01) Neuronal oscillations are assumed to play a pivotal role in the pathophysiology of Parkinson's disease (PD). Neurons in the subthalamic nucleus (STN) generate oscillations which are coupled to rhythmic population activity both in other basal ganglia nuclei and cortical areas.
Detection of Parkinson's Disease from gait using Neighborhood Representation Local Binary Patterns Yurdakul, Ogul Can; Subathra, M. S. P.; George, S. Thomas (Elsevier BV, 2020-09-01) Parkinson's Disease (PD) is a neurodegenerative disease that affects millions of people around the world. Diagnostics tools based on the clinical symptoms have been developed by the scientific community mostly in the last decade. This study proposes a new method of PD detection from gait signals, using artificial neural networks and a novel technique framework called Neighborhood Representation Local Binary Pattern (NR-LBP). Vertical Ground Reaction Force (VGRF) readings are preprocessed and transformed usi...
Impaired inhibitory GABAergic synaptic transmission and transcription studied in single neurons by Patch-seq in Huntington's disease Paraskevopoulou, Foteini; Parvizi, Poorya; Senger, Gokce; Tunçbağ, Nurcan; Rosenmund, Christian; Yildirim, Ferah (2021-05-11) Transcriptional dysregulation in Huntington's disease (HD) causes functional deficits in striatal neurons. Here, we performed Patchsequencing (Patch-seq) in an in vitro HD model to investigate the effects of mutant Huntingtin (Htt) on synaptic transmission and gene transcription in single striatal neurons. We found that expression of mutant Htt decreased the synaptic output of striatal neurons in a cell autonomous fashion and identified a number of genes whose dysregulation was correlated with physiological...
Social construction of "pseudo disease" in Turkey: Clinicians' practice of "giving diagnosis", patiens' voices from "subject positions" Usubütün, Seda; Aksu, Meral; Department of Psychology (2003) Pseudo diseases" that will be explored in that study are Undifferentiated Somatoform Disorder (USD), Fibromyalgia Syndrome (FMS) and Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (CFS). CFS is a diagnostic label that is not currently used in Turkish medical practice. In order to document the latency or absence of CFS diagnosis in our context, 108 medical specialists from Neurology, Infectious Diseases, Physical Treatment and Rehabilitation, and Psychiatry were asked to read a case scenario of a possible CFS patient and to give ...
