The final goal of the present study is to propose a new approach in the Parkinson's Disease rehabilitation, focused on the use of robotic devices and to check the results not only at the end of the treatment but also in the long term, foreseeing 3 follow-up.
The study aims to phenotype hearing in patients with early stage of neurodegenerative disorders to explore the prevalence of various hearing disorders in comparison to a control population. Specific focus is made on patients with speech-in-noise intelligibiltiy deficit despite normal tonal audiograms referred to as hidden hearing loss, with potential …
The purpose of this research is to determine how deep brain stimulation (DBS) for Parkinson's disease affects attention and visuospatial function. Additionally, this study will evaluate how deficits in visual attention are associated with freezing of gait (FOG) in Parkinson's disease. There is currently no reliable treatment for FOG and …
When the charity Homeopathy UK launched a new London based charitable clinic for Neurodegenerative Diseases (NDD), including Parkinson's Disease (PD), it was considered important to document patient's experiences of a high-quality complementary medicine clinic, to enable a greater understanding of the role of complementary medicine for PD. Routine clinical data, …
This single-center, randomized, single-blind, sham-controlled clinical trial aims to evaluate whether remote ischemic conditioning (RIC) can improve sleep disturbances and other non-motor symptoms in patients with Parkinson's disease (PD). Forty-eight PD patients with insomnia will be randomly assigned in a 1:1 ratio to receive either active RIC (cuff inflation to …
The aim of this study is to evaluate the associations of self-compassion and self-efficacy levels with symptom severity, functional status, and quality of life in individuals with Parkinson's disease.
This study is being done to answer the question: Do people with Parkinson's benefit from a new stepping therapy, and how do people with Parkinson's best learn new steps and rhythms set to music? Researchers will also compare individuals with Parkinson's Disease with people with Mild Cognitive Impairment, and with …
The proposed research aims to investigate the use of speech amplification devices as a potential treatment option for people with Parkinson's disease and related disorders who exhibit hypophonia, a voice disorder that affects over half of those with Parkinson's disease. By characterizing the acoustic and perceptual effects of speech amplification …
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if home-based temporal interference stimulation (TIS) works to improve motor symptoms in people with Parkinson's disease (PD). It will also learn about the safety of this treatment. The main questions it aims to answer are: Does home-based TIS improve movement problems …
Parkinsonism impairs upper airway and axial motor control, leading to disordered breathing, reduced speech volume, and ineffective cough. Symptoms are poorly addressed by current therapies. This randomized pilot trial tests whether a single session of acute intermittent hypercapnic hypoxia (AIHH) or hypercapnic normoxia (AIHN) improves upper airway and axial motor …
