Accelerated TMS for Freezing of Gait in Parkinson's Disease
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn whether a personalized brain stimulation method called repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS), combined with walking exercises, is a practical and tolerable approach to help people with Parkinson's disease who experience freezing of gait (FOG). FOG is a disabling symptom where people …
Effects of Exercise With Visual Feedback in Parkinson's Disease
Patients with Parkinson's disease who apply to the Hasan Kalyoncu University Application and Research Center and meet the inclusion criteria will be included in the study. The included participants will be randomly assigned into either the intervention group or the control group using a sealed-envelope method. Both groups will undergo …
prTMS as an Intervention for Bradykinesia in Parkinson's Disease
This study investigates the use of patterned repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (prTMS) as an intervention for bradykinesia in Parkinson's Disease (PD). More specifically, the study aims to determine whether prTMS over the supplementary motor area (SMA) can reduce severity of bradykinesia in PD patients. This approach may open for more …
Evaluation of the Effectiveness of the Parkinson Specialized Teams Intervention
A pilot experiment interventional study is proposed in order to set up multidisciplinary team for Parkinson's patients at home. The aim of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of this specialized Parkinson's team (ESPark) intervention a on the quality of life of patients with moderate to severe Parkinson's disease
SegwayPD: The Effect of Sensory-augmented Postural Training Using Segway on Motor and Cognitive Function in Individuals With Parkinson's Disease
The purpose of this study is to examine the safety and efficacy of postural training emphasized on the integration of multiple sensory information into motor control in individuals with PD. This project is a proof-of-concept study to assess the effectiveness of postural training using Segway, which serves a platform to …
High Frequency Light, Sound, and Tactile Stimulation to Improve Motor and Cognitive Deficits in Parkinson's Disease
Parkinson's disease (PD) impacts different types of neural oscillations in the brain, including beta (13-30Hz) and gamma oscillations (30-80Hz), which contributes to PD's cardinal symptoms of resting tremor, rigidity, bradykinesia (slowness of movement), and gait instability. The investigators' lab has developed a non-invasive method of increasing gamma power in the …
Targeted Motor Learning to Improve Gait for Individuals With Parkinson Disease
The purpose of this research study is to determine how training to step with a metronome on both a treadmill, as well as overground, will influence the way that people with Parkinson disease walk. Using metronomes is commonly used in clinics, but the investigators will be using a combination of …
Lenrispodun as Adjunctive Therapy in the Treatment of Patients With Motor Fluctuations Due to Parkinson's Disease
This is a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel-group, fixed-dose study in patients with a diagnosis of Parkinson's Disease consistent with the UK Parkinson's Disease Society (UKPDS) Brain Bank diagnostic criteria, who are experiencing wearing off symptoms and levodopa-induced dyskinesia.
Patterned Multichannel Vibrotactile Stimulation for the Longitudinal Treatment of Moderate Stage Parkinson's Disease
The purpose of the present research is to examine the effectiveness of a non-invasive, vibrotactile stimulation protocol, known as coordinated reset (CR), for the alleviation of motor symptoms in patients with Parkinson's disease (PD). PD patients exhibit rigidity, slowness (bradykinesia) and poverty (akinesia) of movement as well as other symptoms. …
A Proof-of-concept Study Evaluating the Microbiota-gut-brain Axis
The concept of "Microbiota-gut-brain axis" has long been elucidated. However, only few microbiota-related radionuclide imaging studies have been published. The etiology of physiologic bowel FDG uptake is not fully understood. Some previous studies suggested that bacteria play a role in accumulating FDG and the variability of intestinal FDG activity may …
