Cognitive dysfunction in Parkinson's disease: the role of frontostriatal circuitry

CBU number: 5846
Authors: OWEN, A.M.
Reference: The Neuroscientist, 10(6), 525-537
Year of publication: 2004
Abstract text: It has been known for many years that the classic motor symptoms of Parkinson's disease are accompanied by deficits of executive function that resemble those seen after frontal-lobe damage in humans. What is less clear is how different components of frontostriatal circuitry contribute to these impairments. Recently, improved methods of clinical assessment and classification, combined with novel technical approaches, such as functional neuroimaging, have led to great advances in our understanding of the fundamental mechanisms that drive frontostriatal circuitry. As a direct result, it has been possible to redefine impairments of executive function in Parkinsonís disease more precisely in terms of the specific neuropsychological, neuroanatomical and psychopharmacological mechanisms involved.

The Reprint Request service is currently unavailable. The webform interface is not passing on your requests despite saying it has.

PDF's of articles are also not available unless specifically linked from the record under the link field. Open Access papers are accessible this way when available. We are not able to fulfill pdf requests due to copyright and contractual restrictions.

Inclusion in the Bibliography does not mean that a copy is available, this is foremost a record of the unit's work. Papers marked 'In Press' have not been published so are not available. Books and tests are also not available for copying. These are commerical products and you will need to buy them, or indeed contact your local library service to get a copy.

If a record is from a conference and does not show more than one page number then the record/abstract on the page is the complete record. These are mainly a record of participation in a conference, such as a poster or a talk. Some of these records represent literally nothing more than a line.
