Serum Biomarkers in Parkinson's Disease at Different Stages
Determine clinical characteristics of parkinsonian patients in various stages of disease; Measure peripheral neurodegeneration, synaptic, and inflammation biomarkers in a population of parkinsonian patients at various stages of disease. Measure vesicular neurodegeneration, synaptic and inflammation biomarkers
Online Motor Control in People With Parkinson's Disease
This study aims to better understand how people with Parkinson's control reaching movements. Specifically, we are asking how these individuals respond to different environmental perturbations. Testing includes reaching movements made within a virtual reality set-up.
Light Therapy Intervention in Individuals With Parkinson's Disease
The study looks to investigate the effects that light therapy delivered to the frontal cortex could have on Parkinson's disease related symptoms ( both cognitive and motor). The therapy is a non invasive technique that deliverers low level wavelength light to the front part of the head for 12 minutes. …
Genetics in Parkinson's Disease: Behavioral and Cognitive Outcomes
The genetic landscape of Parkinson's disease (PD) is characterised by rare high penetrance pathogenic variants causing familial disease, genetic risk factor variants driving PD risk in a significant minority in PD cases and high frequency, low penetrance variants, which contribute a small increase of the risk of developing sporadic PD. …
Pathways Mediating Impaired Postural Control in Parkinson's Disease
The purpose of this project is to use transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) to explore the state of excitability of corticocortical and corticofugal (cortex to spinal cord, cortex to brainstem to spinal cord) pathways that project to muscles that control the legs and trunk in people with Parkinson's disease. The outcome …
Integrating AI in Postural Rehabilitation for Parkinson's Disease
Postural abnormalities are highly disabling complications of Parkinson's disease (PD). These include camptocormia, anterocollis, and Pisa Syndrome (PS). PS is characterized by a lateral trunk flexion (LTF) typically exceeding 10 degrees, often accompanied by axial rotation, asymmetric shoulder positioning, and poor awareness of the postural alteration. This condition worsens during …
Brain Mechanisms of Social Perception in Parkinson's Disease
Social cognition is a complex process that enables humans to interpret social information and behave appropriately in a social environment. Social cognition can be impaired in Parkinson's disease patients, worsening quality of life and relationships with those around them, even at an early stage. These alterations are manifested in particular …
7.0T Magnetic Resonance Imaging Study of Parkinson's Disease
This clinical trial study is conducted to detect the imaging characteristics of the patients with Parkinson's diseases (PD) by 7-Tesla (7T) magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).
Speech Learning and Speech Production in Parkinson's Disease
Parkinson's disease, a common movement disorder that results from a breakdown in the brain, often leads to challenges with talking, but less is known about the relationship between difficulties with talking and difficulties with learning to understand speech. By linking these two abilities in individuals with Parkinson's disease using a …
Gait, Physical Activity, and Sleep in Parkinson's Disease
This study aims to investigate the relationship between balance and gait impairments, physical activity levels, and sleep status in individuals with Parkinson's disease (PD). Both motor and non-motor symptoms of PD significantly affect quality of life, yet these dimensions are often evaluated separately. By examining gait, balance, physical activity, and …
