A Pilot Study of In-lab Dynamic Standing in Parkinson's Disease
This research is studying the use of a new type of standing desk in a small number of people to learn about the user experience for people with Parkinson's disease. 12 4-hour sessions will be performed to test the primary hypothesis that dynamic standing improves gait function compared to static …
Non-invasive VNS for Parkinson's Gait
More than 110,000 US Veterans living with Parkinson's disease (PD) currently receive PD-related care and services from the VA. Fall prevention is a priority for Veterans living PD. Gait disturbances are a major cause for functional dependence and the largest risk factor for falls, institutionalization, and death in PD. This …
Effects of Dual-Task Training on Upper Extremity Function in Parkinson's Disease
The goal of this clinical trial is to investigate the effects of dual-task training on upper extremity function and muscle thickness in individuals with Parkinson's disease. The main questions it aims to answer are: Does dual-task training improve upper extremity function in individuals with Parkinson's disease? Does dual-task training lead …
Striatal and Extra-Striatal Cholinergic Terminal Density in LRRK2-PD Mutation
This study explores how a specific genetic mutation of leucine-rich repeat kinase 2 (LRRK2) affects individuals with Parkinson's disease (PD), comparing those with the mutation to others with Parkinson's disease and without the mutation (iPD). Participants will complete positron emission tomography (PET) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) brain imaging, cognitive …
Adaptive DBS for PD
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of an adaptive deep brain stimulation (aDBS) system for managing Parkinson's disease symptoms. Researchers will compare closed-loop stimulation (which automatically adjusts therapy using real-time brain signals and sleep monitoring) against traditional continuous stimulation (fixed settings) in a …
Comparison of Two Different Dual-Task Training Methods in Patients With Parkinson's Disease
The aim of this study is to compare the effectiveness of motor-motor dual-task training and cognitive-motor dual-task training in patients with Parkinson's disease.The main questions it aims to answer are: \- Whether there is a difference between motor-motor dual-task training and cognitive-motor dual-task training in patients with Parkinson's disease in …
Trunk Control Exercises and Mirror Therapy on Balance and Posture in Parkinson's Disease
Parkinson's disease (PD) is movement disorder of the nervous system that worsens over time. As nerve cells (neurons) in parts of the brain weaken or are damaged or die, people may begin to notice problems with movement, tremor, stiffness in the limbs or the trunk of the body, or impaired …
Feasibility of a Community-Based Multimodal Exercise Programme in Parkinson's Disease
This study aims to evaluate the feasibility and preliminary effectiveness of a multimodal, group-based but individualised therapeutic exercise programme for people with Parkinson's disease delivered within a real-world community-based patient association setting. The primary objective is to assess the feasibility of implementing the programme, including recruitment, consent, adherence, intervention completion, …
Effects of Accelerated rTMS On Motor and Cognitive Function in Parkinson's Disease
Parkinson's disease (PD) is a brain disorder that causes progressive problems with movement, such as slowness, stiffness, tremor, and difficulty walking. Many people with PD also develop problems with thinking and memory. Current medications can help control movement symptoms but often become less effective over time and may cause side …
Subthalamic Nucleus-Targeted Transcranial Temporal Interference Stimulation for Motor and Non-Motor Symptoms in Parkinson's Disease
Transcranial temporal interference stimulation (tTIS) is a non-invasive deep brain stimulation method. This study aims to comprehensively explore the efficacy and safety of bilateral subthalamic nucleus (STN) tTIS on motor and non-motor symptoms in patients with Parkinson's disease (PD).
