Emotion Processing Among Patients With ALS
The goal of this observational study is to learn about the emotional perception in people with ALS disease compared to people with other neuromuscular disease and healthy controls. The main questions it aims to answer are: How people with ALS judge happy and angry faces and what their "insight" into …
Comprehensive Analysis Platform To Understand, Remedy and Eliminate ALS
CAPTURE ALS is a long-term data and biorepository platform that will facilitate future ALS research. CAPTURE ALS will provide the standardized systems and tools necessary to collect, store, and analyze vast amounts of multimodal information about ALS. These multimodal datasets and biosamples will be made available for use by researchers …
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), …
Respiratory Functions, Thoracoabdominal Movements and Exercise Capacity in Neuromuscular Diseases
The clinical trial titled "Investigation of Respiratory Functions, Thoracoabdominal Movements, and Exercise Capacity in Neuromuscular Diseases" aims to evaluate the respiratory functions, thoracoabdominal movements, and exercise capacity in children with Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (DMD) and Spinal Muscular Atrophy (SMA) compared to healthy controls. The study will use spirometry, structured light …
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 …
Phenotype, Genotype and Biomarkers 2
The purpose of this study is to learn more about amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and other related neurodegenerative diseases, including frontotemporal dementia (FTD), primary lateral sclerosis (PLS), hereditary spastic paraplegia (HSP), progressive muscular atrophy (PMA) and multisystem proteinopathy (MSP). More precisely, the investigator wants to identify the links that exist …
Advances in Telephone-based Cognitive Screening Procedures
Background Cognitive screening procedures via performance-based tests represent an essential, albeit preliminary, element within the diagnostic and interventional process as addressed to patients with chronic neurological disorders. Furthermore, in these populations, cognitive screening measures are often employed as outcomes in epidemiological settings, as well as endpoints in clinical trials. Therefore, …
