Decoding the Neural Mechanisms Underlying Postural Instability and Gait Dysfunction in Parkinson's Disease
The purpose of this study is to learn how brain signals are related to freezing of gait (FOG) and balance problems in Parkinson's disease (PD) and to study how different deep brain stimulation (DBS) settings may affect these symptoms.
Contribution of the Kinematic Theory in the Early Differential Diagnosis of the Parkinson's Disease
The working hypotheses are as follows: #1 The processing of performance signals by automated lognormal segmentation and the extraction of the parameters of interest will make it possible to distinguish groups of patients from healthy elderly subjects. #2 The three instrumental approaches will not have the same degree of reliability …
rTMS as an Intervention for Levodopa-induced Dyskinesia
The proposed study investigates the use of repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) as a treatment for levodopa-induced dyskinesia (LID) in Parkinson's Disease (PD). Specifically, the study aims to determine whether patterned stimulation of the pre-supplementary motor area (pre-SMA) can delay the onset of LID after levodopa intake and reduce LID …
Cognitive Decline Following Deep Brain Stimulation: A DBS-fMRI Study
The objective of this research study is to understand how Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) targeting the subthalamic nucleus (STN) affects cognitive networks in the brain, potentially leading to cognitive decline in patients with Parkinson's Disease (PD). A total of 55 participants with PD who have undergone DBS surgery will be …
A Study of Buntanetap in Participants With PD
This study will examine the long-term safety of buntanetap in participants with PD. This will be a 36-month open-label safety study. This study will be conducted with two cohorts. Cohort 1 will enroll via invitation only for PD participants who have previously participated in buntanetap clinical trials. Cohort 2 will …
Impact of Frequency-specific Subthalamic Nucleus Subregion Stimulation on Inhibitory Control in Parkinson's Disease
The core symptoms of Parkinson's disease (PD) include both motor and non-motor symptoms. Cognitive impairment is one of the most common non-motor symptoms in PD patients, with approximately 30% of patients exhibiting cognitive dysfunction at diagnosis and up to 80% eventually progressing to dementia. Among these, impairment of inhibitory control …
Feasibility Study Assessing the Effect of Carbidopa/Levodopa Ratio on Orthostatic Hypotension in Multiple System Atrophy - Parkinsonian Type and Parkinson Disease.
This study is aimed at patients with multi-system atrophy - parkinsonian type (P-MSA) or Parkinson's disease (PD) receiving dopaminergic drugs and suffering from orthostatic hypotension (OH). OH is a drop in blood pressure when standing, which can lead to symptoms of dizziness, lightheadedness, a black veil in front of the …
Effect of Mediterranean Diet on Nutrition in Parkinson's Disease Patients With Bilateral Subthalamic Deep Brain Stimulation
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate whether Mediterranean diet can help manage body weight and improve body composition in adult Parkinson's disease patients who have undergone bilateral subthalamic nucleus deep brain stimulation (STN DBS). The main questions it aims to answer are: Does adherence to the Mediterranean …
Developing Precision Microbiota-Based Cocktail Modification Therapy to Delay the Progression of Parkinson's Disease (PD) - Use Preclinical Human Trials to Confirm the Impact of the Optimal "Probiotic Y7, Tryptophan and Branched-chain Amino Acid" Cocktail Formula on Early Stage PD Patients
Preclinical human trials will be utilized to validate the research direction, followed by clinical trials to assess the impact of a cocktail formula product containing the optimal probiotic Y7 combined metabolites on motor, cognitive, and non-motor functions in early Parkinson's disease patients. The study aims to recruit 120 patients (stage …
Neural Mechanisms of Aerobic Exercise Benefits in PD With DBS
This study is focused on people with Parkinson's disease who already have deep brain stimulation devices. The goal is to understand how aerobic exercise, specifically forced vs voluntary cycling, affects movement, thinking, and brain activity in these individuals. Parkinson's disease is a progressive condition that impacts both movement and cognitive …
