    Sammanfattning : Parkinson’s disease (PD) is a common, progressive neurodegenerative disorder. It is characterized by motor symptoms, such as stiff muscles, slowness of movements, tremor, gait and balance difficulties, and also by non-motor symptoms such as depression, sleeping disorders, fatigue, sexual dysfunction, cognitive decline and pain.

    Sammanfattning : Alzheimer’s disease (AD) and Parkinson’s disease (PD) are the two most common neurodegenerative disorders. Whereas the AD brain features plaques of amyloid-beta (Aβ) and neurofibrillary tangles of tau, the PD brain is characterized by Lewy bodies and Lewy neurites containing α-synuclein (αSyn). LÄS MER

    Sammanfattning : BackgroundParkinson’s disease (PD) is one of the most common neurodegenerative diseases in Europe. Besides motor dysfunction, PD is characterized by several non-motor and secondary motor features, such as weight change, sialorrhea, constipation and swallowing problems. LÄS MER

  5. 9. Studies on the Etiology of Parkinson's disease

    Sammanfattning : ABSTRACT Parkinson’s disease (PD) is the second most common neurodegenerative disorder in the world and affects around 1% of the population over 60 years of age. The main symptoms of PD include bradykinesia, resting tremor and rigidity, caused to a large extent by degeneration of the dopaminergic neurons in substantia nigra. LÄS MER

    Sammanfattning : Parkinson’s Disease (PD) is the second most common neurodegenerative disease in the Western world. Itshows a high degree of genetic and phenotypic complexity with many implicated factors, various diseasemanifestations but few clear causal links. Ongoing research has identified a growing number of molecularalterations linked to the disease. LÄS MER
