Striatal monoamine terminals in Lewy body dementia and Alzheimer's disease
(Wiley Subscription Services, Inc., A Wiley Company, 2004-06)
We used positron emission tomography (PET) with (+)-[ 11 C]dihydrotetrabenazine ([+]-[ 11 C]DTBZ) to examine striatal monoaminergic presynaptic terminal density in 20 patients with dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB), 25 with ...
Seasonal symptom variation in patients with chronic fatigue: Comparison with major mood disorders
(Elsevier, 1994)
The psychobiology of idiopathic fatigue has received renewed interest in the medical literature in recent years. In order to examine the relation between chronic, idiopathic fatigue and specific subtypes of depressive ...
Cerebellar and brainstem hypometabolism in olivopontocerebellar atrophy detected with positron emission tomography
(Wiley Subscription Services, Inc., A Wiley Company, 1988-03)
We studied local cerebral metabolic rates for glucose (lCMRglc) with 18 F-2-fluoro-2-deoxy-D-glucose and positron emission tomography (PET) in 30 patients with olivopontocerebellar atrophy (OPCA) and 30 age-matched control ...
Metabolic reduction in the posterior cingulate cortex in very early Alzheimer's disease
(Wiley Subscription Services, Inc., A Wiley Company, 1997-07)
This study investigated cerebral glucose metabolism in very early Alzheimer's disease, before a clinical diagnosis of probable Alzheimer's disease is possible, using [ 18 F]fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography. ...
Thalamic, brainstem, and cerebellar glucose metabolism in the hemiplegic monkey
(Wiley Subscription Services, Inc., A Wiley Company, 1988-12)
Unilateral ablation of cerebral cortical areas 4 and 6 of Brodmann in the macaque monkey results in a contralateral hemiplegia that resolves partially with time. During the phase of dense hemiplegia, local cerebral metabolic ...
Cerebral glucose hypermetabolism in Friedreich's ataxia detected with positron emission tomography
(Wiley Subscription Services, Inc., A Wiley Company, 1990-12)
Local cerebral metabolic rate for glucose was studied with 18 F-2-fluoro-2-deoxy-D-glucose and positron emission tomography (PET) in 22 patients with Friedreich's ataxia and 23 age-matched normal control subjects. The ...
Patterns of cerebral glucose metabolism detected with positron emission tomography differ in multiple system atrophy and olivopontocerebellar atrophy
(Wiley Subscription Services, Inc., A Wiley Company, 1994-08)
We used positron emission tomography with [ 18 F] fluorodeoxyglucose to study local cerebral metabolic rates for glucose (ICMRglc) in patients with multiple system atrophy (MSA), sporadic olivopontocerebellar atrophy ...
Decreased striatal monoaminergic terminals in multiple system atrophy detected with positron emission tomography
(John Wiley & Sons, Inc., 1999-06)
We examined the density of striatal presynaptic monoaminergic terminals, using a ligand for the type 2 vesicular monoamine transporter, (+)-[ 11 C]dihydrotetrabenazine, with positron emission tomography in 7 normal control ...
