Clinical and Instrumental Treatment's Predictors in Subjects With Neurological Diseases Using G-EO Robotic System
The aim of this work is to elaborate a statistical model to predict the effectiveness of robotic treatment in subjects with neurological diseases. The model will be used to understand which subjects are most responsive to this type of treatment
Serotonin Release in Premotor and Motor PD
In this study, the investigators aim to provide a deeper understanding of Parkinson's disease and find a biomarker of Parkinson's disease. This is done using imaging scans called Positron Emission tomography (PET), Single Photon Emission Computed Tomography (SPECT), and Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI). The findings will provide a deeper understanding …
Gait and Balance Impairment in Rare and Very Rare Neurological Diseases
Rare and very rare neurological diseases primarily or exclusively affect the nervous system with a prevalence of \< 5 out of 10'000 and 100'000 people, respectively. Besides these, there are undiagnosed neurological diseases: neurological conditions without a diagnosis after completing a full diagnostic examination. Rare, very rare, and undiagnosed neurological …
Saliva and Extracellular Vesicles for Neurodegenerative Diseases
Early diagnosis of Neurodegenerative diseases (NDDs) and accurate patient profiling are key goals needed to tailor prompt personalized therapeutic strategies that can significantly impact disease progression and patients' quality of life. The project will validate a novel, cost-effective and quick biophotonic-based method for early and differential diagnosis of NDDs (Parkinson's …
Longitudinal Investigation of I2BS in PD
In this study, the researchers aim to find a biomarker of PD. Using imaging scans called Positron Emission tomography (PET), Single Photon Emission Computed Tomography (SPECT), and Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI). The PET and SPECT scans use small amounts of radiation and specific compounds called tracers, to study chemical changes …
Cerebellar Stimulation and Cognitive Control
The purpose of this study is to examine whether cerebellar stimulation can be used to improve cognitive deficits and mood in patients with schizophrenia, autism, bipolar disorder, Parkinson's disease, and major depression.
[18F]F-DOPA Imaging in Patients With Autonomic Failure
Alpha-synucleinopathies refer to age-related neurodegenerative and dementing disorders, characterized by the accumulation of alpha-synuclein in neurons and/or glia. The anatomical location of alpha-synuclein inclusions (Lewy Bodies) and the pattern of progressive neuronal death (e.g. caudal to rostral brainstem) give rise to distinct neurological phenotypes, including Parkinson's disease (PD), Multiple System …
COMPuter-assisted Self-training to Improve EXecutive Function
This project explores the effects of specialized computer-based cognitive rehabilitation (CBCR) targeting executive functions in three groups of patients: Stroke, Cardiac Arrest and Parkinson's Disease. The effect of specialized CBCR is compared to generally cognitively stimulating activities on a computer
Proteinopathies Expression in Skin of Neurodegenerative Disorders
The goal of this observational study is to compare the aggregation pattern of proteinopathies (alpha-synuclein, amyloid-beta, phosphorylated tau and transactive response DNA -binding protein 43 \[TDP43\]) in skin biopsies of patients with a neurodegenerative disease like Alzheimer's disease, frontotemporal lobe dementia, Parkinson's disease, atypical Parkinsonism, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis or normal …
Clinical Efficacy and Mechanism of tDCS for Dysphagia in PD
This study aims to verify transcranial direct current stimulation(tDCS) efficacy for Parkinson's disease (PD)-related dysphagia and its mechanism. Subjects are randomly split into two groups: control (sham tDCS + conventional dysphagia treatment) and experimental (real tDCS + conventional treatment). Assessments will be conducted at baseline, after the completion of intervention, …
