    Abstract Background: Parkinson's disease (PD) patients, especially those on dopamine agonists (DA), are at risk of impulse control disorders (ICD). Little attention has been paid to the influence of environmental factors.
    Cases: Retrospective analysis of consecutive PD patients seen in our outpatient Movement Disorders Clinic during 2 months (September-November 2020) to explore the frequency of ICD during the preceding 2-month lockdown period, and comparison with an equivalent control group (September-November 2019). Among 114 patients assessed, 15 (13%) presented ICD during the lockdown, versus 6 (4.5%,
    Conclusion: During COVID-19 lockdown, the occurrence of ICD in PD patients taking DA was higher than expected, and with increased severity. Environmental stressors may play a role in ICD presentation in vulnerable patients.

    Abstract Objective: To report 3 patients infected with severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) who developed generalized myoclonus.
    Methods: Patient data were obtained from medical records from the University Hospital "12 de Octubre," Madrid, Spain.
    Results: Three patients (2 men and 1 woman, aged 63-88 years) presented with mild hypersomnia and generalized myoclonus following the onset of the so-called inflammatory phase of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). All of them had presented previously with anosmia. Myoclonus was generalized with both positive and negative jerks, predominantly involving the facial, trapezius, sternocleidomastoid, and upper extremities muscles. These myoclonic jerks occurred spontaneously and were extremely sensitive to multisensory stimuli (auditive and tactile) or voluntary movements, with an exaggerated startle response. Other causes of myoclonus were ruled out, and none of the patients had undergone respiratory arrest or significant prolonged hypoxia. All of them improved, at least partially, with immunotherapy.
    Conclusions: Our 3 cases highlight the occurrence of myoclonus during the COVID-19 pandemic as a post- or para-infectious immune-mediated disorder. However, we cannot rule out that SARS-CoV-2 may spread transneuronally to first- and second-order structures connected with the olfactory bulb. Further investigation is required to clarify the full clinical spectrum of neurologic symptoms and optimal treatment.

    Abstract Objective: To report a case of a patient infected with severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) who acutely developed a hypokinetic-rigid syndrome.
    Methods: Patient data were obtained from medical records from the Hospital Universitario 12 de Octubre in Madrid, Spain. [
    Results: We report a previously healthy 58-year-old man who developed hyposmia, generalized myoclonus, fluctuating and transient changes in level of consciousness, opsoclonus, and an asymmetric hypokinetic-rigid syndrome with ocular abnormalities after a severe SARS-CoV-2 infection. DaT-SPECT confirmed a bilateral decrease in presynaptic dopamine uptake asymmetrically involving both putamina. Significant improvement in the parkinsonian symptoms was observed without any specific treatment.
    Conclusion: This case study provides clinical and functional neuroimaging evidence to support that SARS-CoV-2 can gain access to the CNS, affecting midbrain structures and leading to neurologic signs and symptoms.

    Abstract OBJECTIVE: To report a case of a patient infected with severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) who acutely developed a hypokinetic-rigid syndrome. METHODS: Patient data were obtained from medical records from the Hospital Universitario 12 de Octubre in Madrid, Spain. [123I]-ioflupane dopamine transporter (DaT) SPECT images were acquired 4 hours after a single dose of 185 MBq of 123I-FP-CIT. Quantitative analysis was performed with DaTQUANT software providing the specific binding ratio and z score values of the striatum. RESULTS: We report a previously healthy 58-year-old man who developed hyposmia, generalized myoclonus, fluctuating and transient changes in level of consciousness, opsoclonus, and an asymmetric hypokinetic-rigid syndrome with ocular abnormalities after a severe SARS-CoV-2 infection. DaT-SPECT confirmed a bilateral decrease in presynaptic dopamine uptake asymmetrically involving both putamina. Significant improvement in the parkinsonian symptoms was observed without any specific treatment.

[ 123 I]-ioflupane dopamine transporter single-photon emission CT (DaT-SPECT) images were acquired 4 hours after a single dose of 185 MBq of 123 I-FP-CIT. Quantitative analysis was performed using DaTQUANT TM software providing the specific binding ratio (SBR) and z-score values of the striatum.

Significant improvement in the parkinsonian symptoms was observed without any specific treatment. CONCLUSION: This case study provides clinical and functional neuroimaging evidence to support that SARS-CoV-2 can gain access to the central nervous system, affecting midbrain structures and leading to neurological signs and symptoms.
