Behavioral neurology of movement disorders by
William J Weiner(
)
23 editions published between 1994 and 2005 in English and held by 857 WorldCat member libraries worldwide
The opening chapters review the role of the basal ganglia in behavior and describe the behavioral effects of specific focal lesions in the basal ganglia. The contributors then discuss the wide range of behavioral disturbances seen in Parkinson's disease, including personality alterations, early and late cognitive changes, depression, and drug-induced behavioral states. Other chapters delineate the behavioral problems observed in other akinetic rigid syndromes and the psychiatric and behavioral abnormalities seen in Wilson's disease

Progress in Parkinson research by
Franz Hefti(
Book
)
9 editions published between 1988 and 1989 in English and held by 138 WorldCat member libraries worldwide
In the past five years significant progress has been made in our basic and clinical under standing of Parkinson's disease. The discovery that MPTP, a relatively simple molecule, is able to induce parkinsonism in otherwise healthy adult humans, and the recent interest in the possibility of "transplantation" procedures as a therapeutic modality in the treatment of Parkin son's disease have generated enormous interest in research related to Parkinson's disease. In this setting, the National Parkinson Foundation decided to organize a research meeting to bring together scientists actively engaged in research relevant to the study of Parkinson's disease, to accelerate its progress and to promote an exchange of ideas. This meeting took place in Janu ary 1988 at Key Biscayne, Florida. It was decided to publish the proceedings ofthis meeting to allow rapid documentation of the participants current findings and views regarding this rapidly of this volume follows the organization of the meeting and begins evolving field. The structure with a clinical and neuropathological review of current knowledge regarding Parkinson's dis ease. Since dopaminergic neurons playa major role in the pathophysiology of the disease, many of the contributions relate to some aspects of dopaminergic function including localiza tion, regulation, and pharmacology of dopamine receptors. A special effort has been made to provide a summary of the present knowledge of the cellular biology of the dopaminergic neurons

Parkinson's disease : a complete guide for patients and families by
William J Weiner(
)
1 edition published in 2019 in English and held by 11 WorldCat member libraries worldwide
Recent innovations, including deep brain stimulation and new medications, have significantly improved the lives of people who have Parkinson's disease. Nevertheless, patients and families continue to face many challenges. They have long relied on this book for reliable advice about medical, emotional, and physical issues. Bringing this trusted guide up to date, three expert neurologists describe new understandings gained by five years of additional research on Parkinson's disease. They give a new focus to the importance of exercise, share new information about imaging techniques such as SPECT Scan and DATScan that are aiding in the diagnosis, and detail new findings about the genetics of the disease and promising uses of new technologies such as tablet devices for people who have trouble communicating. The authors also provide information about impulse control disorders caused by some drugs used to address the symptoms of the disease, as well as a complete update on treatments such as medications, surgery, and more
