Study To Assess Effectiveness and Adverse Events of Foscarbidopa/ Foslevodopa in Adult Participants With Advanced Parkinson Disease in Real Life Setting
Parkinson's disease (PD) is a neurological condition, which affects the brain. PD gets worse over time, but how quickly it progresses varies a lot from person to person. Some symptoms of PD are tremors, stiffness, and slowness of movement. This study will assess how effective foscarbidopa/ foslevodopa is in treating …
Smart Wearable Device (gaitQ): Walk Better Project
This study will be underpinned by the new MRC guidelines for developing a complex intervention with a participatory design methodology that uses evidence-based research and behaviour change models alongside COSMIN methodology for validating a measure. Research question: To what extent does gaitQ's smart cueing system improve people with long-term conditions …
Identification of Prodromal Neurodegeneration in Serotonergic-Induced REM Sleep Behavior Disorder
This project will test the hypotheses that people with 5-HT RBD have systemic alphasynuclein pathology, prodromal DLB signs, and brainstem lesions in regions that control REM sleep. AIM 1 will seek to detect abnormally phosphorylated alpha- synuclein aggregates on targeted skin biopsy in a cohort of people with 5-HT RBD …
Gait Analysis in Neurological Disease
The purpose of this study is to investigate whether speed-dependent measures of gait can be identified in patients with neurological conditions that affect gait, particularly in subjects with parkinsonian disorders.
The STEREO-DBS Study: 7-Tesla MRI Brain Network Analysis for Deep Brain Stimulation
Rationale: Deep brain stimulation (DBS) of the nucleus subthalamicus (STN) is an effective surgical treatment for the patients with advanced Parkinson's disease, despite optimal pharmacological treatment. However, individual improvement after DBS remains variable and 50% of patients show insufficient benefit. To date, DBS-electrode placement and settings in the highly connected …
Biomarkers of Synaptic Damage in Multiple Sclerosis
A prospective and retrospective cohort study of about five years will be performed on blood and cerebrospinal fluid samples taken for diagnostic reasons from recruited patients within the Neuromed Neurology Unit. Subjects with other chronic neurodegenerative diseases such as Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), Alzheimer's disease (AD) and Parkinson's disease (PD), …
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
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 …
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 …
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 …
