Clinical and brain functional correlates of instrumental rigidity measurement in Parkinson’s disease
Latest Parkinson's research and breakthroughs
CureDigest2/3 The tool measures two key things: bias difference (how well treatments work) and elastic coefficient (severity of Parkinsonism). These help in more accurate diagnoses and effective treatment plans.
1/3 New hope for Parkinson's! A special tool called torque-angle instrument measures muscle stiffness, helping doctors better understand and treat the disease. This could make daily life easier for those affected.
3/3 The good news? By focusing on reducing symptoms and addressing social issues, we can help reduce stigma and improve quality of life for Parkinson's patients. Let's break down these barriers together! #ParkinsonsCommunity

Assessment of stigma among patients living with Parkinson’s disease: an exploratory study
Latest Parkinson's research and breakthroughs
CureDigest2/3 Other factors like age, how well you can take care of yourself, and even how long you've had the disease can also affect stigma. This means we need to look at the whole picture to help patients.
#ParkinsonsAwareness1/3 Living with Parkinson's can be tough, but did you know stigma can make it even harder? A new study found that how severe your symptoms are plays a big role in how much stigma you might feel.
#ParkinsonsStigma3/3 One dose of ketamine can have lasting effects, seen even after a few months. This could be a game-changer for managing levodopa-induced dyskinesia. Hope for better treatment is on the horizon! #ParkinsonsResearch #HopeForPatients

Brain study challenges long-held views about Parkinson's movement disorders
Latest Parkinson's research and breakthroughs
CureDigest2/3 Exciting news for Parkinson's patients - ketamine shows promise! The study found that ketamine can help disrupt abnormal brain patterns during dyskinesia, potentially giving the motor cortex more control over movement.
1/3 New study challenges old views on Parkinson's! Researchers found that during dyskinetic episodes, the motor cortex 'disconnects', suggesting a new path to managing movement disorders. This could change how we treat Parkinson's!
