rTMS Over the Dorsolateral Prefrontal Cortex for the Treatment of Impulse Control Disorders in Parkinson's Disease
This study's objective is to evaluate the effects of repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) over the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (dlPFC) of patients with Parkinson's Disease (PD) who experience impulse control disorders (ICDs) on impulse control symptoms and cognitive behaviors linked to ICDs: reinforcement learning and delay-discounting. This is a randomized …
Multimodal Image Technologies Investigate the Role and Mechanism of Probiotics in Improving RBD with Parkinson's Disease
Rapid eye movement sleep behavior disorder (RBD) is important non-movement feature, and also the important risk factor of Parkinson's disease (PD). In our previous work, we found that the movement features and RBD of PD patients improved after taking probiotics. The later was not reported before and the mechanism not …
rTMS to Improve Cognition in Parkinson's
The purpose of this study is to examine safety, feasibility, and the behavioral and brain effects of a non-invasive treatment, repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS), for Veterans with Parkinson's disease and mild impairments in their thinking. The hypothesis is that rTMS can improve thinking for people with Parkinson's disease who …
Cortical-Basal Ganglia Speech Networks
In this research study the researchers want to learn more about brain activity related to speech perception and production.
Deep Brain Stimulation Surgery for Movement Disorders
Background Deep brain stimulation (DBS) is an approved surgery for certain movement disorders, like Parkinson's disease, that do not respond well to other treatments. DBS uses a battery-powered device called a neurostimulator (like a pacemaker) that is placed under the skin in the chest. It is used to stimulate the …
Understanding Motivation in Parkinson's Patients Through Neurophysiology
The study aims to better understand motivation and value-based decision-making in Parkinson's patients through neurophysiology using Medtronic's Percept DBS device. By combining behavioral tasks with neural recordings, the study seeks to uncover how DBS affects motivation, particularly in relation to effort, reward, and timing.
Use of CereGate Therapy for Freezing of Gait in PD
A Multi-Center, Controlled Study to Evaluate Use of CereGate Therapy to Reduce Freezing of Gait in Participants Diagnosed with Parkinson's Disease.
Oscillatory Activity in Basal Ganglia Circuits During Normal and Pathological Movement
The expression of hypokinetic and hyperkinetic motor symptoms is accompanied by pathological synchronous oscillations of neuronal activity in this cortico-subcortical network with a wide frequency range. The purpose of this research is to study cortico-subcortical oscillations and their synchronization in two pathologies emblematic of hypokinetic (Parkinson's disease) and hyperkinetic (epilepsies) …
Effects of Transcranial Ultrasound Stimulation (TUS) on Neurological and Cognitive Outcomes in Neurodegenerative Diseases
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of transcranial focused ultrasound neuromodulation in improving neural function, cognitive and behavioral performance, and quality of life for patients with neurodegenerative diseases.
The Effect of Alcohol on Common Tremor Syndromes
The aim of this interventional study is to compare the response to alcohol in patients with essential tremor (ET), essential tremor plus (ETplus), dystonic tremor (DT), tremor associated with dystonia (TaD) and tremor in Parkinson´s disease (PD). The main question to be answered is: • Is there a difference in …
