( Bradshaw, CM; Hou, RH; Langley, RW; Raisi, M; Samuels, ER; Szabadi, E, 2006)
" Despite a limited sample size in the present study, our results indicate that the pupil dilation assay by tropicamide is not an effective diagnostic tool for AD, and it may be modulated by different gene dosage of ApoE epsilon 4."1.29Pupil dilatation assay by tropicamide is modulated by apolipoprotein E epsilon 4 allele dosage in Alzheimer's disease. ( Arai, H; Higuchi, S; Mochizuki, H; Nakagawa, T; Sasaki, H; Terajima, M, 1996)
"We examined 14 patients with progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP), another related neurodegenerative disorder characterized by severe widespread cholinergic deficits and known central hypersensitivity to cholinergic blockade, to determine whether they also showed a marked pupil dilation after administration of dilute tropicamide eye drops."1.29Can tropicamide eye drop response differentiate patients with progressive supranuclear palsy and Alzheimer's disease from healthy control subjects?
