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 …
Research on the Brain Mechanism of taVNS in Regulating PD Motor Symptoms
This study is a double blind comparative study exploring the neural underpinnings of taVNS modulating PD motor deficits. We hypothesize that taVNS might improve PD motor deficits by regulating the balance between excitation and inhibition in the primary motor cortex.
Imaging Core Aim 2, and Udall Project 2 Aim 2
More than one million people in the United States have Parkinson's disease (PD) and the prevalence is expected to double by 2040. Over 60% of these individuals will develop debilitating postural instability and gait disturbances (PIGD), including freezing of gait (FOG). With disease progression, axial motor symptoms typically become resistant …
Personalized Stimulation Loop for Neurorehabilitation in Parkinson: a Proof-of-principle Study
Parkinson's disease (PD) is a neurodegenerative disease that affects about 1% of the elderly population and accounts for substantial disability and health care costs. Disability is largely driven by mobility deficits caused by impaired gait. Effective treatments are available to restore lower limb function and improve gait, but response to …
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.
Evaluation of the Efficacy and Safety of Fecal Microbiota Transplantation for Constipation in Parkinson's Disease
Participants will be allocated to FMT group or placebo group at a 1:1 ratio. For interventional group, patients will be given six FMT capsules twice a week for 24 weeks. Placebo capsules are identical in appearance and smell but contain milk powder. At each follow-up visits, participants complete specific scales …
A Late Phase II Clinical Trial of KDT-3594 in Patients With Parkinson's Disease
This trial is a late phase II, multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel group trial to evaluate the efficacy, safety, and pharmacokinetics of KDT-3594 administered at escalating doses ranging from 0.25 to 2 mg per day for 17 weeks in patients with advanced PD with levodopa.
Performance of the Paragit Sleeve to Measure and Monitor Motor Symptoms in Patients With Parkinson's Disease
This investigation is undertaken to: Evaluate the accuracy and reliability of the device in measuring and recording motor symptoms associated with Parkinson's Disease (PD), and To assess the safety and tolerability of the device in patients with PD.
Clinical Trial with Cannabidiol (Kanbis®) for Parkinson Disease Symptoms
Parkinson disease (PD) is a chronic, progressive neurodegenerative disorder characterized by clinical motor and non-motor symptoms. Knowing the potential benefits has led to the use of cannabis as an alternative therapy.
