Do Disorders of Movement Cause Movement Disorders and Dementia?
Neurons require long-distance microtubule-based transport systems to ferry vital cellular cargoes and signals between cell bodies and axonal or dendritic terminals. Considerable progress has been made on developing a molecular understanding of these processes and how they are integrated into normal neuronal functions. Recent work also suggests that these transport systems may fail early in the ...
متن کاملCognitive dysfunction and dementia in movement disorders
Alzheimer’s disease (AD) and Parkinson’s disease (PD) represent the most common neurodegenerative disorders, and while AD is the most prevalent cause of dementia, PD, the commonest bradykinetic movement disorder, has a cumulative prevalence of dementia of 75-90% (PD dementia – PDD) particularly in patients with a disease duration of 10 years or longer. At the opposite end of the spectrum of mov...
متن کاملACR Appropriateness Criteria Dementia and Movement Disorders.
Neurodegenerative disease, including dementia, extrapyramidal degeneration, and motor system degeneration, is a growing public health concern and is quickly becoming one of the top health care priorities of developed nations. The primary function of anatomic neuroimaging studies in evaluating patients with dementia or movement disorders is to rule out structural causes that may be reversible. L...
متن کاملIncreased Risk of Dementia Among Sleep-Related Movement Disorders
Sleep-related movement disorders (SRMD) are sleep disorders. As poor sleep quality is associated with cognitive impairment, we hypothesized that SRMD patients were exposed to a great risk for developing dementia.The present study was aimed to retrospectively examine the association of SRMD and dementia risk.A retrospective longitudinal study was conducted using the data obtained from the Longit...
متن کاملApraxia in movement disorders.
The definition of apraxia specifies that the disturbance of performed skilled movements cannot be explained by the more elemental motor disorders typical of patients with movement disorders. Generally this does not present a significant diagnostic problem when dealing with 'higher-level' praxic disturbances (e.g. ideational apraxia), but it can be a major confound in establishing the presence o...
