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 …
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.
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 …
Efficacy of Split Gait in the Treatment of Dynamic Asymmetries in Subjects With Pathologic Claudication
Walking on a split-belt treadmill (each of the two belts running at a different speed) imposes an asymmetrical gait, mimicking limping that has been observed in various pathologic conditions. This walking modality has been proposed as an experimental paradigm to investigate the flexibility of the neural control of gait and …
The Effect of an Auditory Rhythmic Cue on the Frequency of Rolling in Patients with Dysphagia and Parkinson's Disease
The main objective of this clinical study is to measure the effect of rhythmic auditory cueing, introduced in rehabilitation with three weekly sessions over a period of 7 weeks, on the frequency of rolling in idiopathic Parkinson's disease patients using pharyngography (swallowing radiography). The primary question of this study is: …
Tapping Test and the Archimedean Spiral for the Differential Diagnosis of Tremor. Machine Learning Approach
In clinical practice, it is sometimes difficult to establish whether a patient's tremor is due to Parkinson's disease or essential tremor. The distinction is crucial as the health implications differ significantly between the two conditions. Therefore, the present study aims to develop a diagnostic method based on machine learning techniques …
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.
A Digital Therapeutic Platform for Swallowing and Drooling Problems in Parkinson's
The purpose of this study is the development and early-stage validation of a wearable sensor for dysphagia in patients with PD.
Optimistic and Pessimistic Dopamine Signals in the Human Brain: a Mapping and Modelling Study in Health and Parkinson's Disease
The goal of this observational study is to investigate whether the healthy human brain shows a diversity of optimistic and pessimistic reward signals and whether changes in this distribution in Parkinson's disease (PD) can provide mechanistic insights into the cause of symptoms. The main hypotheses it aims to test are: …
