A listing of Parkinson's Disease medical research trials actively recruiting patient volunteers. Search for closest city to find more detailed information on a research study in your area.
The study plans to recruit 12 patients with Parkinsonian tremor, essential tremor, or dystonic tremor. After receiving NaviFUS-ctbTUS stimulation, the improvement in their tremor will be recorded.
This study investigates the long-term safety and tolerability of home peroneal eTNM® therapy using the URIS I™ device in subjects with Parkinson's disease (PD) or Essential Tremor (ET). Previously, a 6-week open-label pilot study with 24 PD or ET patients demonstrated that home-based peroneal eTNM® is safe, well-tolerated, and has …
Parkinson's disease is the most common progressive neurodegenerative movement disorder. Common movement impairments in Parkinson's include balance and walking difficulties. These impairments lead to falls, increased levels of functional dependency, and a decrease in quality of life. Exercise in Parkinson's patients improves their functional symptoms in daily life, enhancing both …
Glucosinolates (GLs) are phytocompounds mainly found in the Cruciferae (Brassicacea) and Moringa oleifera plants. The hydrolysis of GLs by myrosinase led to the production of isothiocyanate (ITCs). ITCs consumption was associated with different health promoting effects, including to neuroprotective, anti-oxidant and anti-inflammatory capacities. In particular, they showed neuroprotective effects in …
This study investigates magnetic resonance-guided focused ultrasound thalamotomy (MRgFUSth) for people with Parkinson's disease (PD) and tremor not responding to conventional standard doses of dopamine replacement therapy. The aim is to identify clinical and imaging biomarkers predictive of sustained tremor control up to 24 months after MRgFUSth treatment. Participants will …
This study will examine how two important brain circuits - one involving the subthalamic nucleus (STN) and one involving the ventral intermediate nucleus of the thalamus (VIM) - contribute to learning and producing speech sequences. Participants will include two groups: 1. individuals with Parkinson's disease who have deep brain stimulation …
The purpose of this research study is to identify the role that the gut-brain axis, the group of nerves that connect the brain and gut, plays in Parkinson's disease (PD). The National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases is sponsoring this research study. During this study, specific groups …
This is a pilot randomized, sham-controlled, double-blind, multi-center study evaluating the safety and preliminary effectiveness of the Gen0Bh Transcranial Focused Ultrasound System for the treatment of motor symptoms in individuals with idiopathic Parkinson's disease.
Forty percent of people living worldwide with Parkinson's disease (PD) are women. Twenty percent of patients have PD onset under the age of 60 years, a time when women may encounter significant caregiving responsibilities along with occupational and other competing demands. Studies with surveys of women with PD (WwPD) have …
To compare the efficacy, programming burden, power consumption, and physicians' and patients' satisfaction between current mode and voltage mode of deep brain stimulation in each period one year after surgery.
