Bilateral low frequency rTMS of the primary motor cortex may not be a suitable treatment for levodopa-induced dyskinesias in late stage Parkinson's disease Vrije Universiteit Brussel Universiteit Gent
BACKGROUND: In late stage Parkinson patients there is an unmet need for new treatments to adequately control motor complications, especially dyskinesias. In several preliminary studies, it has been suggested that applying unilateral low-frequency repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (LF rTMS), delivered at the primary motor cortex (MC) or the supplementary motor area (SMA), may reduce levodopa-induced dyskinesias (LID), either in a ...
Association of LRRK2 exonic variants with susceptibility to Parkinson's disease Vrije Universiteit Brussel Universiteit Antwerpen
BACKGROUND: Background The leucine-rich repeat kinase 2 gene (LRRK2) harbours highly penetrant mutations that are linked to familial parkinsonism. However, the extent of its polymorphic variability in relation to risk of Parkinson's disease (PD) has not been assessed systematically. We therefore assessed the frequency of LRRK2 exonic variants in individuals with and without PD, to investigate the role of the variants in PD ...
