STIMPulseControl Ancillary Speech Study
Speech assessment is a substudy to the STIMPulseControl study (hereinafter referred to as the main study), where audio recordings of patients voices will be recorded as part of a speech analysis in the main study, for this optional ancillary study.
TeleNEURO-Rehabilitation Systems for Neurodegenerative Conditions: the FIT4TeleNEURO Pragmatic Trial
The goal of the FIT4TeleNEURO pragmatic trial is to verify, in real-life care contexts, the superiority in terms of the effectiveness of early rehabilitation intervention with Telerehabilitation (TR) protocols (TR single Approach, task-oriented - TRsA; TR combined approach, task-oriented and impairment-oriented - TRcA) compared to conventional management (Educational treatment, ET). …
Bilateral Subthalamic Stimulation in PD Patients With Impulse Control Disorders - STIMPulseControl
The focus of the study is on patients Parkinson's disease showing as well behavioral disorders that can be described as pathological and are summarized under the term impulse control disorder (ICD). Changes in behavior and also pathological disorders are a common side effect of treatment for Parkinson's disease. The goal …
A Clinical Study to Evaluate the Safety, and Tolerability of BBM-P002 in the Treatment of Parkinson's Disease
The purpose of the study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of BBM-P002 for stereotactic injection to treat participants with idiopathic Parkinson's Disease (PD) during the dose-limiting toxicity (DLT) observation period.
Precision Medicine and Neurodegenerative Diseases: Advanced Systems for the Diagnosis and Treatment of Parkinson's Disease and Alzheimer's Disease.
In recent decades, advances in medicine have significantly improved both quality of life and life expectancy. However, these positive effects are also associated with a considerable increase in the prevalence of age-related diseases. Among these, Alzheimer's disease (AD), Parkinson's disease (PD), and type 2 diabetes (T2D) currently represent a major …
Analysis of Cutaneous Phosphorylated Alpha-Synuclein to Identify Patients at Risk of Progressing From Essential Tremor to Parkinson's Disease
Background and Rationale Essential tremor (ET) affects over 6 million Americans and approximately 5% of adults over age 60. Patients with ET have a 10-20 times higher risk of developing Parkinson's disease (PD) compared to age-matched populations, with approximately 1% converting to PD annually. Post-mortem studies reveal Lewy body pathology …
tDCS as Treatment for Motor Function
Previous preliminary results are sufficiently impressive to suggest that tDCS stimulation does have the potential to improve motor function when that ability is trained during stimulation. In the proposed study, the investigation will assess whether walking sessions combined with tDCS lead to improvements in motor function: gait, articulation, eye gaze, …
Role of Slow Waves in the Progression of Neurodegeneration in Isolated REM Sleep Behavior Disorder
This study tests whether enhancing deep sleep with gentle sounds at night can slow progression in people with iRBD or early Parkinson's disease. Participants wear a sensor headband and headphones for 18 months. Four assessments including mobility, memory, imaging (PET/MRI), lumbar puncture, and blood tests are assessed.
Implementing a National Biobank of PD With WGS and Functional Assessment of Polygenic Inheritance by iPSC Technology
The genetic complexity and heterogeneity of the sporadic forms of Parkinson's disease (PD) are posing a formidable challenge to disentangle their direct molecular causes. To advance this research, we plan to coordinate our local biorepositories of PD biological specimens creating a standardized and integrated national resource. In this framework, we …
Wearable Biofeedback for Swallowing Disorders Rehabilitation in Stroke and Parkinson Disease
Dysphagia, or difficulty swallowing, is a common symptom of many neurological diseases but its treatment is not well established or easily accessible. To start addressing this gap, the researchers developed and validated a cost-effective wearable surface electromyography (sEMG) biofeedback sensor technology (i-Phagia), optimized to record muscle activity from the head/neck …
