Abstract: OBJECTIVES Though the Japanese version of the Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA-J) scores change after a cerebrospinal fluid tap test (CSFTT), their characteristics remain unclear. To compare patient response rate to changes in cognitive function observed… read more here.

DOI: 10.1186/s12987-021-00254-3
Abstract: Background Idiopathic normal pressure hydrocephalus (INPH) is characterized by gait disturbance, urinary incontinence and cognitive decline. Symptoms are potentially reversible and treatment is based on cerebrospinal fluid shunting. The tap test (TT) is used to… read more here.

DOI: 10.14336/ad.2018.0426
Abstract: Although the 3-m timed up-and-go test (TUG) is reliable for evaluating mobility, TUG time is insufficient to evaluate mild gait disturbance; we, therefore aimed to investigate other measurements with instrumented TUG (iTUG) using a free… read more here.

DOI: 10.3389/fnagi.2021.665878
Abstract: Background: The value of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) biomarkers for assessing idiopathic normal pressure hydrocephalus (iNPH) must be determined. This prospective study aimed to reveal the correlation between CSF biomarkers and clinical symptoms of iNPH and… read more here.
