Olfactory Impairment in Parkinson’s Disease Patients with Tremor Dominant Subtype Compared to Those with Akinetic Rigid Dominant Subtype: A Pilot Study

Background: Parkinson's disease (PD) may present different motor subtypes depending on the predominant symptoms (tremor or rigidity/bradykinesia). Slower disease progression and cognitive decline were observed in tremor-dominant (TD) patients compared to those with the akinetic-rigid dominant (ARD) subtype. Although olfactory dysfunctions are well-known disturbances in PD patients, correlations among PD different subtypes and olfactory impairment were not clearly studied. Thus, we investigate...

Criteria for identification of advanced Parkinson’s disease: the results of the Italian subgroup of OBSERVE-PD observational study

Background: Frequency of Advanced Parkinson’s Disease (APD) and its clinical characteristics are still not well defined. Here, we aimed to assess APD prevalence in the Italian OBSERVE-PD cohort, as well as treatment eligibility to device-aided therapies (DAT), and to compare the APD clinical judgment with the established Delphi criteria. Methods: This sub-group analysis of the OBSERVE-PD study was performed on patients enrolled by 9 Movement Disorders centers in Italy. Motor and non-motor sym...

Thermal versus cooled radiofrequency in patients with sacroiliac joint pain: a systematic review of the literature and pooled analysis of clinical outcomes

INTRODUCTION: Chronic low back pain (LBP) can be caused by sacroiliac joint (SIJ) disease. Many conditions could cause SIJ dysfunction. The lateral branches of the L4-S3 dorsal rami are responsible for the primary innervation of the posterior SI joint. Radiofrequency (RF) denervation represent an emerging promising treatment for refractory sacroiliac joint pain. There are different types of RF denervation such as thermal or cooled. Use of irrigation cooled electrodes allows targeted tissues t...

The importance of social zeitgeber in paediatric type 1 narcolepsy: What we can learn from the COVID‐19 restrictions adopted in Italy?

The lockdown due to the new coronavirus pandemic (COVID-19) has led to unparalleled changes in several aspects of human behaviour. During the lockdown, the general population delayed sleep timing and spent more time in bed; however, little is known on the effects of COVID-19 restriction on children and adolescents suffering type 1 narcolepsy. In the last months of 2019, we performed follow-up actigraphy in 18 type 1 narcolepsy children and adolescents under stable pharmacological treatment wi...

Child Neurology: A Case Series of Heterogeneous Neuropsychiatric Symptoms and Outcome in Very Early-Onset Narcolepsy Type 1

Narcolepsy type 1 is a central disorder of hypersomnolence characterized by excessive daytime sleepiness, cataplexy (i.e., sudden loss of muscle tone during wakefulness triggered by emotions), and REM sleep-related manifestations that can present with a peculiar phenotype when arising at a pediatric age. Several features of childhood-onset narcolepsy type 1 are also common in neuropsychiatric conditions; discrete neuropsychiatric comorbidity has also been demonstrated. Here, we report on 3 ch...
