Objectives: The objective of this study is to describe the mechanism of damage to subcortical structures in chronic kidney disease (CKD) and to describe the range of movement disorders associated with CKD.
Materials And Methods: We have reviewed the Medline literature up to January of 2020 using key words movement disorders and chronic kidney disease. The reviewed articles were studied for mechanisms of subcortical damage in CKD as well as type of the reported movements, their frequency and updated treatment.
Results: The search revealed 183 articles most of them dealing with restless legs syndrome. The damage to basal ganglia in CKD resulted from several mechanisms including accumulation of nitro tyrosine caused by reactive oxygen species and action of uremic toxins leading to endothelial damage and dysfunction of blood-brain barrier. Involuntary movements in CKD include restless legs syndrome (RLS), myoclonus, asterixis, dystonia, chorea, tremor, and Parkinsonism.
Conclusions: Chronic kidney disease can cause several abnormal involuntary movements via damaging basal ganglia and subcortical structures. The most common movement disorders in CKD are RLS, myoclonus and asterixis. Restless legs syndrome and myoclonus when severe, need and respond to treatment. Movement disorders in CKD improve with improvement of kidney function.

Efficacy of brain stimulation therapies across psychiatric, movement, and cognitive disorders: an umbrella review synthesizing meta-analyses of randomized controlled trials.
EClinicalMedicine
February 2025
Department of Psychiatry, Chaohu Hospital of Anhui Medical University, Hefei, Anhui, China.
Background: Brain stimulation therapy (BST) has significant potential in treating psychiatric, movement, and cognitive disorders. Given the high prevalence of comorbidities among these disorders, we conducted an umbrella review to comprehensively assess the efficacy of BSTs in treating the core symptoms across these three categories of disorders.
Methods: We systematically searched for meta-analyses and network meta-analyses of randomized controlled trials with sham controls up to September 25, 2024, from databases including PubMed, PsycINFO, Embase, and the Cochrane Library.
A novel machine learning based framework for developing composite digital biomarkers of disease progression.

Background: Current methods of measuring disease progression of neurodegenerative disorders, including Parkinson's disease (PD), largely rely on composite clinical rating scales, which are prone to subjective biases and lack the sensitivity to detect progression signals in a timely manner. Digital health technology (DHT)-derived measures offer potential solutions to provide objective, precise, and sensitive measures that address these limitations. However, the complexity of DHT datasets and the potential to derive numerous digital features that were not previously possible to measure pose challenges, including in selection of the most important digital features and construction of composite digital biomarkers.

Assessment of outcomes in adulthood is critical for clinical decision-making and future precision medicine approaches but is challenging because of the diagnostic gap and duration of follow-up that would be required for prospective studies. We aimed to delineate the natural history retrospectively from adulthood.

Objective: Accurate measurement of pelvic floor muscle (PFM) strength is crucial for the management of pelvic floor disorders. However, the current methods are invasive, uncomfortable, and lack standardization. This study aimed to introduce a novel noninvasive approach for precise PFM strength quantification by leveraging extracorporeal surface perineal pressure (ESPP) measurements and machine learning algorithms.

Background: This study investigates the protective properties of melatonin in an Parkinson's disease (PD) model, focusing on the underlying mechanisms involving heat shock proteins (HSPs).
Methods: Twelve adult male C57BL/6 mice were randomly divided into four groups (normal control, melatonin control, Parkinson's model, and melatonin treatment; = 3 per group) and housed in a single cage. 1-methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine (MPTP) was injected intraperitoneally in the Parkinson's model and treatment groups to establish a subacute PD model, while controls received saline.
