Listen Add to Collection Help PARKINSON'S DISEASE AND TREMORS Parkinson's Disease is a disease of that part of the brain controlling aspects of movement pertaining to maintenance of muscle tone balance, coordination of opposing muscle groups, and the smooth transition from the resting state to movement. These seemingly unrelated aspects of muscle control are what enable a normal person to move in a fluid and gradual manner, without unnecessary jerking motions as complex groups of muscles go into action. In addition, it allows us to use certain muscle groups while allowing others to stay relaxed. The part of the brain in question is called the basal ganglia. In Parkinson's Disease, the basal ganglia begin to degenerate progressively for unknown reasons. The functional defect seems to include a deficiency of the chemical called dopamine in this area, and other chemical disturbances are suspected as well. It has been postulated that this damage may result from some unknown toxic element or as the result of a previous viral infection. Familial factors do not seem to play a major role. It is not a contagious disease, and generally affects older people. Any or all of the findings of Parkinsonism may be caused by specific drugs (especially the major tranquilizers such as Thorazine and Haldol), and following encephalitis or other forms of brain injury. The discussion below refers to the standard syndrome of essentially unknown cause.

Parkinson's disease is a slowly developing neurological disease. It attacks the parts of the brain that control voluntary and involuntary movement. When the cells in these areas gradually die off, this has the effect that too little dopamine is produced – with serious consequences for the sufferer. Complete loss of control The patients seem to gradually freeze. Their muscles contract and frequently tremble. Their faces exhibit mask-like distortions. They walk heavily and with a stoop. In the end, they lose their ability to coordinate their movements: their arms and hands get out of control and make strange rowing-like movements. In many cases it remains unclear why the brain cells gradually die off. It is probably due to a combination of factors. Genetic factors are currently among the causes being discussed, although cases of the disease occurring frequently in specific families tend to be rare.

Parkinson's disease (PD or, simply, Parkinson's) is the most common form of parkinsonism, a group of motor system disorders. It is a slowly progressing, degenerative disease that is usually associated with the following symptoms, all of which result from the loss of dopamine-producing brain cells: tremor or trembling of the arms, jaw, legs, and face stiffness or rigidity of the limbs and trunk bradykinesia (slowness of movement) postural instability, or impaired balance and coordination Facts about Parkinson's disease: It is incorrectly believed that Parkinson's disease disappeared after the introduction of levodopa (L-dopa) in the 1960s. In fact, about 50,000 Americans are newly diagnosed with Parkinson's disease each year, with more than half a million Americans affected at any one time. Further, more people suffer from Parkinson's disease than multiple sclerosis, muscular dystrophy, and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis combined. What causes Parkinson's disease (PD)?

High Speed Internet Search the Web Parkinson’s disease Parkinson’s disease is a degenerative disease of the nucleus accumbens with its resultant effect on motor modulatory pathways involving the basal ganglia. It is characterised by tremor, bradykinesia (slowness of movement), rigidity and postural instability. bradykinesia tremor postural instability rigidity The motor cortex signals are modulated via the thalamus, basal ganglia and cerebellum so that motor movement is accurate and coordinated. Information from the motor cortex (especially the somatosensory cortex, the association cortex and the primary motor cortex) goes to the cerebellum and basal ganglia, mainly via excitatory glutamate pathways. From the corpus striatum inhibitory signals (mainly GABAergic and substance P) go to the thalamus. From the cerebellum excitory signals, mainly GABAergic, go to the thalamus. The thalamus acts as a gate, combining information from these other areas to feed back into the cortex, especially the premotor motor areas and the primary motor area. The striatum (putamen and caudate nucleus) receives information via many neurotransmitters from many areas, and integrates them before sending them to the substantia nigra and globus pallidus. Its projections are mainly GABAergic, hence inhibitory. The globus pallidus interna collects this information before sending inhibitory signals to the thalamus. Let’s look at the pathways in more detail:

Forgot My Password OVERVIEW Motor planning and sequencing are central to human activity. From the coordinated movements needed to walk, to the order of words in a sentence, planning and sequencing are critical to efficient human function. Interactive Metronome (IM) is the only therapy tool that improves motor planning and sequencing by using neuro-sensory and neuro-motor exercises developed to improve the brain's inherent ability to repair or remodel itself through a process called neuroplasticity. Clinical Foundation The human brain's efficiency and performance depend on the seamless transition of neuronetwork signals from one area of the brain to another. Findings in a recent study by Neal Alpiner, MD, "Functional MRI Study of the Effects of IM on Auditory-Motor Processing Networks", suggest that IM works by augmenting internal processing speed within the neuroaxis. The key regions of the brain that are affected appear to include the cerebellum, prefrontal cortex, cingulate gyrus and basal ganglia. These parts of the brain are responsible for human timing as well as other day to day functions such as: sustained attention, language formulation, motor coordination and balance. The IM program provides a structured, goal-oriented process that challenges the patient to synchronize a range of hand and foot exercises to a precise computer-generated reference tone heard through headphones. The patient attempts to match the rhythmic beat with repetitive motor actions. A patented auditory-visual guidance system provides immediate feedback measured in milliseconds, and a score is provided.

What is parkinsons disease and what are its symptoms? Question: Answers: Parkinson's disease is a common, chronic degenerative disease of the central nervous system that produces movement disorders and changes in cognition and mood. Its hallmarks include a pill-rolling tremor of the hands, muscular rigidity, loss of facial expression, difficulty initiating movements (bradykinesia), and gait disturbances (esp. shuffling gait, festination, and sometimes difficulty initiating forward movements). Parkinson's disease (PD) is usually found in people over the age of 65. Its underlying cause is not known. Although PD often clusters in families, whether this is the result of genetics or of exposure to common precipitating agents (viruses, toxins) is uncertain. In the U.S. about one and a half million people have Parkinson disease. Symptoms Most patients report gradual onset of aching, fatigue, or malaise, followed by evidence of a tremor in one or more extremities, typically a hand when it is at rest. Other common symptoms include difficulty getting up from a chair or turning over in bed; a change in vocal quality (a softer, less audible voice); shuffling gait that becomes faster after a few steps (festination); and a stooped posture. As the years pass, frequent falls may occur. Occasionally a tendency to fall backward (retropulsion) replaces festination. Facial expressiveness may diminish, and the handwriting may become smaller or more cramped (micrographia). Other Answers: It's a nuerological disorder.

The small study focused on testing the safety of the procedure rather than its effectiveness, and experts cautioned it's too soon to draw conclusions about how well it works. But they called the results promising and said the approach merits further studies. "We still have quite a bit more testing to do," said Dr. Michael Kaplitt of Weill Cornell Medical College in New York, an author of the study. Still, "the initial results are extremely encouraging." Kaplitt and collaborators report their results in this week's issue of the British medical journal, The Lancet. They're not alone in trying gene therapy for Parkinson's. In April, another team told a medical meeting that its experiments, which delivered a different kind of gene to a different part of the brain, also appeared safe and gave a preliminary hint of benefit.

The symptoms are usually mild at first and you may not need any treatment for a while. Symptoms tend to progress slowly and in no particular order. Parkinson's disease affects everyone differently, and you probably won't get all of these symptoms.
