Title: A Multimodal Exercise Program With Gamification for Parkinson Disease (MEP+G)
In this pilot study the research will explore whether exercises and the outcome measures would be acceptable to conduct a more detailed research study. This 8 week pilot study will utilize a comprehensive exercise program that includes non-contact boxing along with computerized games for individuals with Parkinson Disease.
Vestibular and Cortical Contributions to Transitions in Freezing of Gait in Parkinson's Disease
Currently, there is a lack of comprehensive knowledge about the role of vestibulospinal drive and cortical activity during self-initiated movement transitions in older adults and people with PD (both with and without FOG). This set of experiments has two primary purposes: to (1) understand the pathological neurophysiology underlying freezing of …
The Clinical Application of Clostridium Butyricum Miyairisan for Motor and Non-motor Symptoms in Parkinson's Disease
This is an open-label, single-center, non-randomized study to assess the efficacy of Clostridium Butyricum Miyairi on the motor and non-motor symptoms of Parkinson's disease
DetectFoG : Detection of Gait Freezing Episodes in Parkinsonian Patients Using Inertial Measurement Units
Parkinson's disease is the second most common neurodegenerative disease in the world. One of these manifestations is the freezing of gait (FOG) which affects 50 to 80% of Parkinsonian patients. It is defined as a brief and episodic absence or marked reduction in the forward progression of the feet despite …
Balance Exercise and Vagus Nerve Stimulation on Weight-shifting Control and Ambulation in Parkinson Disease and Anxiety
Postural balance and anxiety are the two critical factors for reducing independence and quality of life in patients with Parkinson's disease (PD). Anxiety would deteriorate balance and gait dysfunction. Especially, relative to non-constraint condition, PD patients with anxiety had greater increases in anxiety level and balance/gait impairment in time-constraint or …
High-intensity Functional Training on Functional and Cognitive Performance in People with Parkinson's Disease.
Parkinson's disease (PD) is a progressive and chronic neurodegenerative disease, which presents signs and symptoms both motor (impaired gait, posture, balance, etc.) and cognitive (memory loss, dementia, etc.), all of which are causing disability and assuming a high economic cost. Currently, there are already certain authors who have shown how …
Home-based Transcranial Static Magnetic Field Stimulation (tSMS) of the Supplementary Motor Area in Parkinson's Disease
This is a pilot open study to test the hypothesis that home-based transcranial static magnetic field stimulation (tSMS) of the supplementary motor area is safe and feasible to modulate corticostriatal activity in patients with Parkinson's disease.
APA and PAS Training for Gait Initiation in Parkinson's Disease
Our research focused on understanding the interplay between brain excitability and balance function in patients with Parkinson's disease (PD), alongside evaluating effective physical therapy methods. It highlights the prevalence of non-motor disorders and cognitive impairments among PD patients, including balance and postural issues, cognitive function decline, and gait instability. Additionally, …
Investigating the Cholinergic Contribution to Gait Dysfunction in Parkinson's Disease
People with Parkinson's disease often experience problems with 'gait' and balance. Gait refers to the way a person moves while walking, such as their speed and length of steps. People with Parkinson's may experience slowness of movement, shuffle their feet, or have periods of 'freezing', during which their feet feel …
A Prospective, Randomized, Controlled Trial to Test Safety and Effectiveness of Unilateral Exablate MR-guided Focused Ultrasound Subthalamotomy in Patients With Early-Stage Parkinson's Disease
This prospective, randomized, multicenter study aims to evaluate in Early-Stage Parkinson's Disease (ESPD) patients the safety and effectiveness of treatment with Exablate MRgFUS subthalamotomy vs best medical treatment.
