Tenapanor in Synucleinopathy-Related Constipation
Investigation of tenapanor as a potential treatment for synucleinopathy-associated constipation
Colonic Tissue Biopsy Detection of Phosphorylated Alpha-synuclein for Parkinson's Diagnosis or REM Sleep Behavior Disorder
The goal of this observational study is to learn whether tissue samples taken from the colon during routine colonoscopy can detect signs of Parkinson's disease or REM Sleep Behavior Disorder (RBD). The main question it aims to answer is: Can doctors find a protein called alpha-synuclein in colon tissue samples …
Pilot Intervention With Near Infrared Stimulation
The current study will test whether age-related cognitive and mood changes in older adults and those with Parkinson disease will be affected by near infrared (NIR) stimulation. The overall hypothesis, drawn from previous literature, is that exposure to NIR stimulation will have positive effects on brain health and will result …
Usability of a Novel Cueing Device for Patients With Parkinson's Disease
Hypokinetic gait disorder and Freezing of Gait (FOG) are frequent symptoms in the advanced stage of Parkinson's disease (PD). These impair quality of life and significantly increase the risk of falls. External movement pacemakers have been developed to improve gait and avert FOG by cueing strategies. The investigators developed a …
Evaluating the Effect of Mirtazapine on Anxiety in Parkinson's Disease Patients
This study is a single-center, parallel and double-blind study in Movement Disorders Clinic of Shohadaye Tajrish Hospital. Patients, researchers (physicians, outcome assessors) and data analysts are blinded. After assessing the inclusion and exclusion criteria's, patients who assigned the informed consent form, are randomly divided into control and treatment groups.Patients in …
Efficacy of Acupuncture for the Treatment of Parkinson's Disease Related Constipation
The purpose of the study is to evaluate the efficacy of acupuncture in treating Parkinson's disease related constipation (PDC). In the randomized controlled clinical trial study, patients meeting the criteria for inclusion will be randomly enrolled and divided into two groups in a 1:1 ratio: the acupuncture group and the …
Effectiveness of Online Program and Task-related Training for Parkinson's Disease
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare the effectiveness of online self-management program and on-site task-related training for people with early stage Parkinson's disease. people with early stage of Parkinson's disease (age range: 45-70 years) will be randomly assigned into the following three groups: control group, online self-management …
Gamma Sensory Flicker for Parkinson's Disease Patients With Freezing of Gait
This study aims to answer the question: to assess the safety, and tolerability of gamma light in Parkinson's disease (PD) patients with freezing of gait (FOG). Parkinson's disease (PD) patients often experience a complex gait disorder known as Freezing of Gait (FOG). FOG is characterized by brief arrests of stepping …
Cerebellar Transcranial Alternating Current Stimulation (tACS) to Modulate Parkinson's Disease Tremor
Parkinson's disease (PD) is a prevalent neurodegenerative disorder characterized by different motor symptoms, including tremor, which is particularly difficult to manage. Common treatments, such as dopaminergic therapy, can have limitations in efficacy. Recent advancements in non-invasive brain stimulation, specifically phase-adaptive transcranial alternating current stimulation (tACS), offer a promising approach to …
Adaptive vs. Continuous Subthalamic Nucleus Deep Brain Stimulation in Parkinson's Disease
The objective of the CLOSE-PD study is to compare the efficacy of adaptive deep brain stimulation (aDBS) with continue deep brain stimulation (cDBS) in patients with Parkinson's disease. The main question it aims to answer is: \- whether the change in daily mean ON time without troublesome dyskinesia in aDBS …
