  1. Dopamine transporter imaging deficit predicts early transition to synucleinopathy in idiopathic rapid eye movement sleep behavior disorder

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 45 out of 100. Annals of neurology 2017-09-01 Brain scans and imaging

    DAT-SPECT identifies IRBD patients at short-term risk for synucleinopathy.

  2. The Clinical Phenotype of Idiopathic Rapid Eye Movement Sleep Behavior Disorder at Presentation: A Study in 203 Consecutive Patients

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 40 out of 100. Sleep 2016-01-01 Brain scans and imaging

    We report the largest IRBD cohort observed in a single center to date and highlight frequent features that were not reported or not sufficiently emphasized in previous publications.

  3. Olfactory deficit in idiopathic rapid eye movements sleep behavior disorder

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 40 out of 100. Brain research bulletin 2006-08-07 Brain scans and imaging

    The olfactory deficit found in most idiopathic RBD patients shares similarities with that described in PD and may be a sign of a widespread neurodegenerative process.
