Comparison of Different Non-invasive Electrical Stimulation Protocols to Facilitate Rehabilitation in Parkinson's Disease Subjects With Postural Instability and Gait Disorders
The trial will include 51 adult participants with Parkinson's disease and postural instability and gait disorders (PD-PIGD) and 20 age- and sex-matched healthy controls. At baseline (T0) patients will undergo neurological and cognitive/behavioural assessments, gait/balance evaluation, neuroimaging/neurophysiology assessments including brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), functional Near Infrared Spectroscopy (fNIRS) and …
Patient Engagement Investigation of NMS Assist
Parkinson's can cause a wide range of non-motor symptoms (NMS), including pain and problems with mental health, memory and sleep. These affect the quality of life of people with Parkinson's (PwP) and their care partners (CP). If these issues are not recognised and managed quickly, they can result in escalating …
Adaptive DBS Algorithm for Personalized Therapy in Parkinson's Disease (ADAPT-PD) China Study
The purpose of the study is to evaluate the effectiveness of the Medtronic Percept PC with Adaptive DBS therapy (aDBS) for Parkinson's Disease in China. The main question it aims to answer is: To demonstrate at least 50% of subjects meet a success criterion relative to stable cDBS.
Non-Invasive Fundus Retinal Detection Technology for Early Diagnosis of Parkinson's Disease
The objective of this observational study is to investigate whether non-invasive fundus retinal detection technology can be used for the early diagnosis of parkinson's disease (PD). It aims to answer the following primary questions: the sensitivity and specificity of non-invasive fundus retinal detection technology in the early diagnosis of PD; …
D-SPARK: A Clinical Trial of D-Serine for Modifying Parkinson's Disease Progression
This clinical study, designed as a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial, aims to investigate if modulation of the N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor (NMDAR) via its co-agonist D-serine has therapeutic benefits in Parkinson's disease (PD). All patients will receive both placebo and D-serine over different time periods during the study. Preclinical studies have shown …
Rhythmic Auditory Stimulaton Using Personalized Music Therapy in Parkinson's Disease
Parkinson's disease (PD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder commonly associated with gait disturbances, balance impairments, and freezing of gait, which significantly increase the risk of falls and reduce functional independence. Conventional physical therapy improves mobility in individuals with PD; however, persistent gait deficits often remain. Rhythmic Auditory Stimulation (RAS) is …
Celecoxib in Parkinson Disease as Adjuvant Therapy
Parkinson's disease (PD) is a chronic neurodegenerative disease clinically characterized by bradykinesia, hypokinesia, rigidity, resting tremor, and postural instability. These motor manifestations are attributed to the degeneration and selective loss of dopaminergic neurons in the substantia nigra pars compacta (SNpc), leading to a dopamine (DA) deficiency in the striatum. Neuroinflammation …
The Effect of Long-term Daily Stimulation of the Brain With Pulsed Electromagnetic Fields on Parkinsons Disease
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn to what extent daily stimulation of the brain with transcranial pulsed electromagnetic fields (T-PEMF) works to treat persons with Parkinson's Disease. The main questions it aims to answer are: How does 6 months of daily treatment (30 minutes/day) with T-PEMF affects …
Metformin in Parkinson Disease
The clinical manifestations of Parkinson's disease (PD), a chronic neurodegenerative condition, include resting tremor, hypokinesia, bradykinesia, stiffness and postural instability. These motor symptoms are caused by a selective loss and degeneration of dopaminergic neurons in the substantia nigra pars compacta (SNpc) region, which leads to a dopamine (DA) insufficiency in …
The Effects of Mindfulness-based Cognitive Therapy in People With Parkinson's Disease
Parkinson's disease (PD) is a debilitating neurodegenerative disorder occurring in 7 million patients worldwide. PD is caused by progressive loss of nigro-striatal dopamine cells, which causes motor symptoms such as slowness of movement and tremor, and non-motor symptoms such as cognitive dysfunction. Converging clinical evidence indicates that PD patients are …
