Parkinson's Disease (PD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder characterized by motor symptoms such as bradykinesia, tremors, and postural instability, as well as various non-motor symptoms. Conventional land-based rehabilitation is standard; however, aquatherapy-utilizing water's buoyancy, hydrostatic pressure, and viscosity-offers a promising alternative to improve balance and mobility while reducing fall risks. …
The main objective of this observational trial is to explore the validity and reliability of DANU smart socks when used for mobility assessments in people with Parkinson's. Using a series of laboratory gold standard equipment, this project aims to compare the metrics observed by DANU to the reference standards. No …
Camptocormia is defined by abnormal flexion of the trunk, not fixed, present when standing and walking, resolves when lying down and often complicated by lower back pain. It can be observed in numerous neurological pathologies with a prevalence ranging between 5 and 19% in Parkinson's disease. The physiopathology of camptocormia …
The goal of the present study is to objectively access the presence of an Internal Tremor in Parkinson's disease. Inertial sensors will be used to detect the presence of a rhythmic oscillation of 3-4 Hz. The study will be performed in both Parkinson's disease patients and healthy controls to ascertain …
Neuroinflammation is considered one of the most important factors contributing critically to pathophysiology of PD . Recently, high mobility group box-1 (HMGB1) protein has been encoded as a potential inflammatory biomarker in PD. HMGB1 mediates immune response mostly through endothelial cells and macrophage activation via targeting two vital cell receptors; …
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; …
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 …
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 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 …
This is a prospective, multicenter, randomized, two-period study designed to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the EarStim System for intermittent relief of motor symptoms in patients with Parkinson's disease experiencing wearing-off phenomena. Adult patients with moderate to severe Parkinson's disease (MDS-UPDRS Part III score ≥33) receiving oral dopaminergic therapy …
