AI Article Synopsis
Article Abstract
Continuous drug delivery (CDD) has emerged as a feasible and pragmatic therapeutic option for dopamine replacement therapy in advanced Parkinson's disease (PD). CDD aims to mimic the physiological tonic dopamine release from striatal dopaminergic neurons and thus reduces the severity and duration of motor and non-motor fluctuations partly related to pulsatile levodopa stimulation. Non-motor symptoms and fluctuations are ubiquitous in PD and include sleep dysfunction, a problem that occurs in over 90% of PD patients across all stages, from prodromal to palliative. In this review, we discuss the currently available and in development non-oral dopaminergic CDD strategies with a focus on their efficacy in the treatment of the burdensome sleep dysfunction in PD.

Sleep recovery ameliorates submandibular salivary gland inflammation associated with paradoxical sleep deprivation in male Wistar rats.
J Appl Oral Sci
January 2025
University of Ibadan, College of Medicine, Department of Physiology, Ibadan, Nigeria.
Objective: Submandibular salivary gland inflammation has been suggested as one of the mechanisms underlying impaired salivary secretion associated with sleep deprivation (SD). However, whether the salivary inflammatory response occurs to the same extent in paradoxical sleep deprivation with or without sleep recovery remains unknown. This study evaluated the extent to which inflammation influences salivary impairments associated with paradoxical sleep deprivation with or without sleep recovery.

Achondroplasia is the most common disproportionate short-stature skeletal dysplasia. Features associated with achondroplasia are rhizomelia, macrocephaly, midface hypoplasia, and typical cognition. Potential medical complications include foramen magnum stenosis, hydrocephalus, middle ear dysfunction, obstructive and central sleep apnea, spinal stenosis and genu varum.

J Neurol
January 2025
Center for Health + Technology, University of Rochester Medical Center, Rochester, NY, USA.
Background: Longitudinal qualitative data on what matters to people with Parkinson's disease are lacking and needed to guide patient-centered clinical care and development of outcome measures.
Objective: To evaluate change over time in symptoms, impacts, and relevance of digital measures to monitor disease progression in early Parkinson's.
Methods: In-depth, online symptom mapping interviews were conducted with 33 people with early Parkinson's at baseline and 1 year later to evaluate (A) symptoms, (B) impacts, and (C) relevance of digital measures to monitor personally relevant symptoms.
Audiovisual analysis of the diagnostic video polysomnography in patients with isolated REM sleep behavior disorder.
J Neurol
January 2025
Sleep Unit, Neurology Service, Hospital Clínic Barcelona, IDIBAPS, CIBERNED, Universitat de Barcelona, Villarroel 170, 08036, Barcelona, Spain.
Background: The diagnosis of isolated REM sleep behavior disorder (IRBD) requires video polysomnography (V-PSG) showing increased muscle activity and abnormal behaviors in REM sleep.
Objective: To describe in IRBD the behavioral manifestations occurring during REM sleep in the diagnostic V-PSG.
Methods: This is a systematic audiovisual V-PSG analysis of consecutive IRBD patients.
Temporal lobe epilepsy with isolated amygdala enlargement: anatomo-electro-clinical features and long-term outcome.
J Neurol
January 2025
Epilepsy Unit - Sleep Disorders Unit, Fondazione IRCCS Istituto Neurologico Carlo Besta, Milan, Italy.
Background: Temporal lobe epilepsy with isolated amygdala enlargement (TLE-AE) still lacks a definite characterization and controversies exist.
Methods: We conducted a retrospective study identifying brain MRI scans with isolated AE between 2015 and 2021. We collected clinical and paraclinical data of patients with TLE-AE and evaluated the outcome.
