2-dodecyl-6-methoxycyclohexa-2,5-diene-1,4-dione (DMDD) is a cyclohexanedione compound extracted from the roots of Averrhoa carambola L. Several studies have documented its beneficial effects on diabetes, Alzheimer's disease, and cancer. However, its potential neuroprotective effects on Parkinson's disease (PD) have not yet been explored.

The global prevalence of Parkinson's Disease (PD) is on the rise, driven by an ageing population and ongoing environmental conditions. To gain a better understanding of PD pathogenesis, it is essential to consider its relationship with the ageing process, as ageing stands out as the most significant risk factor for this neurodegenerative condition. PD risk factors encompass genetic predisposition, exposure to environmental toxins, and lifestyle influences, collectively increasing the chance of PD development.

Materials And Methods: This is a retrospective, international, multi-centre, observational cohort study of patients diagnosed with MS and neurogenic OAB and treated with intradetrusor BoNT between January 2005 and January 2020 (just prior to COVID-19 interruption). Dose, efficacy, duration of effect, International Consultation on Incontinence Questionnaire Overactive Bladder (ICIQ-OAB) and International Consultation on Incontinence Questionnaire Urinary Incontinence (ICIQ-UI) measures and complication rates were recorded.

Mitochondria and lysosomes are critical for neuronal homeostasis, as highlighted by their dysfunction in various neurological diseases. Recent studies have identified dynamic membrane contact sites between mitochondria and lysosomes, independent of mitophagy and the lysosomal degradation of mitochondrial-derived vesicles (MDVs), allowing bidirectional crosstalk between these cell compartments, the dynamic regulation of organelle networks, and substance exchanges. Emerging evidence suggests that abnormalities in mitochondria-lysosome contact sites (MLCSs) contribute to neurological diseases, including Parkinson's disease, Charcot-Marie-Tooth (CMT) disease, lysosomal storage diseases, and epilepsy.

Background: Transcutaneous vagus nerve stimulation (tVNS) has emerged as a novel noninvasive adjunct therapy for advanced Parkinson's disease (PD), yet no quantitative analysis had been conducted to assess its therapeutic effect.
Objectives: This review aimed to investigate the efficacy of tVNS on motor function, other potential clinical targets and its safety in various treatment conditions.
Methods: We searched six databases for randomized controlled trials (RCTs) that involved treating PD patients with tVNS.
