Movement Error-processes and Sensorimotor Adaptation in Parkinsonian Patient
The aim of the present project is to document the relationship between the behavioral deficits and the electrophysiological anomalies observed in PD patients in tasks involving motor adaptation to visual or mechanical perturbations.
MR-guided Focused Ultrasound Plus GCase
The goal of this study is to establish safety and feasibility of intracerebral delivery of GCase via MRgFUS. This technique may offer potential benefits given the exposure of the putamen to GCase in animal models has been shown to be efficacious in improving Parkinson's disease pathology and phenotype.
REducing SPEECH-related Side-effects of Deep Brain Stimulation in Parkinson's Disease Via Automated Speech Analysis
The investigators' objective is to improve L-dopa sensitive PD-related dysarthria and at the same time reduce DBS-induced speech disorders with the help of automated acoustic analysis in patients with STN-DBS-induced dysarthria.
Towards the Validation of a New Blood Biomarker for the Early Diagnosis of Parkinson's Disease
The investigators have recently discovered a metabolic biomarker which predicts Parkinson's disease (PD) at the early stages in patients and in animal models. The aim of BIOPARK is to investigate how the biomarker evolves in advanced PD stage, when diagnosis confirmation is higher, an in de novo PD patients who …
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 …
Exercise & Brain Energetics in PD
There is increasing evidence that the usage and delivery of energy to the brain, known as brain energetics, is altered in people with Parkinson's disease (PD). This project will explore whether exercise has a positive impact on brain energetics using functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (fMRI) and Positron Emission Tomography (PET) …
Effect of Synbiotic as an Adjuvant Therapy in the Treatment of Parkinson's Disease
This study aims to investigate the possible efficacy and safety of synbiotic preparation of Lactobacillus acidophilus probiotic with prebiotic fibers as an adjuvant therapy in the treatment of Parkinson's disease
Circuit-Based Deep Brain Stimulation for Parkinson's Disease P1A2&3 Catalyst
This study will help us better understand how the brain works in people with Parkinson's disease (PD). PD is a brain disease that gets worse over time, and affects over 10 million people world-wide. A common treatment for PD is Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS). To improve DBS therapy for PD, …
Sensory Filtering in the Human Basal Ganglia as a Mechanism of Parkinson's Disease
The investigators are investigating the brain activity associated with sensory information in movement disorders in order to improve treatment of these symptoms beyond what is currently available.
Evaluation of a New Communication Aid Tool to Favor Global Patient Centered Care
PARKINSUN is a new communication aid tool, expected to favor global patient centered care for PD patients during consultation with GPs and neurologists. Two groups of patients will be randomized to use or not PARKINSUN when they consult their physicians every 3 months during 7 months.
