Development of Digital Diagnostic Devices for Parkinson's Disease
In this project, ocular motor, pupil and gait data in people with Parkinson's disease (PD) will be collected in order to develop machine learning models for the diagnosis and monitoring of PD. With this, the investigators aim to advance the state of the art in PD diagnosis and monitoring. By …
Parkinson's Disease Biomarkers in Nerve Cells in the Gut
Parkinson's disease affects all the nerve cells in the body, including the ones in the gut. The gut contains its own nervous system, the enteric nervous system, and can be thought of as a "second brain". This second brain can reflect what is going on in the actual brain. This …
Virtual Reality and Fear of Falling in Parkinson's Disease
Background: Falls are common in elderly individuals and those with neurological conditions like Parkinson's disease. Parkinson's disease causes postural instability and mobility issues that lead to falls and reduced quality of life. The fear of falling (FoF), a natural response to unstable balance, can exacerbate postural control problems. However, evaluating …
Deep Brain Stimulation for Visuomotor Function in Parkinson's Disease
Inability to align and refocus the eyes on the objects at different depths, i.e., vergence impairment, frequently affects the quality of life in patients with Parkinson's disease. Our study aims to understand the location-specific effects of subthalamic region deep brain stimulation on vergence by integrating the patient-specific deep brain stimulation …
Non-invasive Detection of Volatile Metabolites in Parkinson's Disease
Parkinson's disease (PD) is the second most common neurodegenerative disorder. Currently, a diagnostic test for early PD does not exist. The aim to address this problem by developing a non-invasive breath test to differentiate early PD from controls. Small molecules contained in breath, which offers precious information about disease presence, …
Circuit-Based Deep Brain Stimulation for Parkinson's Disease P1A2&3 Catalyst
This study will help us better understand how the brain works in people with Parkinson's disease (PD). PD is a brain disease that gets worse over time, and affects over 10 million people world-wide. A common treatment for PD is Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS). To improve DBS therapy for PD, …
Towards the Validation of a New Blood Biomarker for the Early Diagnosis of Parkinson's Disease
The investigators have recently discovered a metabolic biomarker which predicts Parkinson's disease (PD) at the early stages in patients and in animal models. The aim of BIOPARK is to investigate how the biomarker evolves in advanced PD stage, when diagnosis confirmation is higher, an in de novo PD patients who …
Short- and Long-term Behavioral, Cognitive and Motor Outcomes of Frameless Deep Brain Stimulation in Patients With Parkinson's Disease: a Prospective Observational Study
The main objective of the study is to evaluate the improvement in quality of life after deep brain stimulation surgery with frameless technique by comparing the PDQ-39 scale score at baseline (before surgery) and one year after surgery.
Movement Error-processes and Sensorimotor Adaptation in Parkinsonian Patient
The aim of the present project is to document the relationship between the behavioral deficits and the electrophysiological anomalies observed in PD patients in tasks involving motor adaptation to visual or mechanical perturbations.
Chinese DENOVO PD Registry
The main objective of this longitudinal, multi-center study is to explore the clinical characteristics of PD and confirm biomarkers for PD evolution or progression.
