Turkish Adaptation of "Parkinson's Disease Quality of Life 7 (PDQoL7)" Questionnaire
Parkinson's Disease (PD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder characterized by the involvement of dopaminergic pathways in the basal ganglia. Motor and non-motor symptoms are frequently observed in PD. These symptoms may negatively affect the quality of life of individuals with PD. Therefore, it is recommended to evaluate the quality of …
Effect and Mechanism of Brain Stimulation for Parkinson's Disease With Cognitive Impairment
This study intends to apply structural and functional brain network neuroimaging techniques combined with image post-processing methods to explore the differences in brain network changes in PD patients with cognitive impairment after DBS or TMS.
Examination of Factors Associated With Fatigue in Individuals Diagnosed With Parkinson's Disease
Fatigue is defined as an overwhelming feeling of weariness, lack of energy, and a feeling of exhaustion. It is common in Parkinson's Disease (PD) and is one of the most disabling symptoms. Fatigue is affected by motor and non-motor symptoms in individuals diagnosed with PD. As a result of this …
Exploring Emotional Intelligence and Cognitive Flexibility in Anorexia Nervosa and Parkinson's Disease.
The main aim of this study is to demonstrate how disorders characterized by different types of "inflexibility", cognitive-affective type for Anorexia nervosa and motor one for Parkinson's disease, have an impact on how emotional stimuli are processed and on the transition within emotional states.
Subthalamic Nucleus Deep Brain Stimulation in Speech Study
Parkinson's disease (PD) patients treated with deep brain stimulation (DBS) of the subthalamic nucleus (STN) have unpredictable and varied speech outcomes after this treatment. Our research will prospectively document speech performance before, during and 6- and 12-months after STN-DBS in 80 surgically treated patients and compared with 40 non-surgical controls …
Investigating Neural Biomarkers for Gait in Parkinson's Patients
This observational study's main goal is to learn more about the neural mechanisms during movement in Parkinson's disease. Furthermore, it aims to inspire personalised treatment options. Participants will undergo a protocol that involves walking and gait-related motor tasks, such as seated stepping. During the protocol, brain activity will be recorded.
Upper Extremity Functional Skills in Patients With Parkinson Disease (pwPD)
Parkinson's disease (PD) is the second most common neurodegenerative disease, characterized pathologically by the progressive loss of dopaminergic neurons in the substantia nigra and clinically by the presence of motor symptoms such as bradykinesia, resting tremor, and/or rigidity.Patients with Parkinson's disease (pwPD) often exhibit poor manual dexterity and decreased strength. …
Postural Sway of Trunk and Upper Extremity Functional Skills in Atient With Parkinson Disease (pwPD)
Parkinson's disease (PD) is the second most common neurodegenerative disease, characterized clinically by motor and non-motor symptoms, including bradykinesia, resting tremor, and/or rigidity. Among the motor deficits observed in PD, decreased postural control often results in decreased balance. Furthermore, losses in many upper extremity and manual skills are also observed …
Observational Case Series of Patients With Parkinson's Disease (PD) Attending a Complementary Medicine Neuro-degenerative Disease (NDD) Clinic.
When the charity Homeopathy UK launched a new London based charitable clinic for Neurodegenerative Diseases (NDD), including Parkinson's Disease (PD), it was considered important to document patient's experiences of a high-quality complementary medicine clinic, to enable a greater understanding of the role of complementary medicine for PD. Routine clinical data, …
Influence of Glucose on Metabolism and Clinical Symptoms of Patients With Parkinson's Disease
Many patients with Parkinson's Disease (PD) report an increased consumption of fast-acting sugars. This tendency to consume sweet, high-sugar foods occurs in some patients even before the onset of cardinal motor symptoms. Some recent studies have demonstrated that PD patients have an increased consumption of fast-acting carbohydrates compared to healthy …
