Development and validation study of a prognostic score - study of prognostic performance by a prospective longitudinal multicenter cohort spread over 8 centers: 4 for the development cohort and 4 for the validation cohort).
Assessment of safety and efficacy of volume-targeted ventilation in patients with neuromuscular disease.
The main aim of the study is to validate the algorithms developed to analyze the signals from the various sensors contained in the magneto-inertial control units and reconstruct upper and lower limb movements under different normal and pathological conditions.
Objectives To establish if physiotherapists can use the waveform traces from the cough assist machine to work out when patients are having an abnormal airway response to cough assist To establish how cough assist device settings, particularly in breath and cough pressures affect a patient's response to using the cough …
Hypothalamus has a key role in multiple vital functions, including regulation of sleep-wake cycles. Oxytocin (OT), a neurohormone synthetized in the hypothalamus, has a wide range of physiological functions, including a putative role in improving sleep quality. Hypothalamic and pituitary damage (HPD) is associated with a clinically relevant OT deficient …
Sleep is an important factor for overall health. This study will see how different light exposure patterns and food intake impact a person's metabolism (how the body breaks down food) when sleeping is reduced. Participants will attend 6 to 8 in-person visits to the study clinic, including three overnight stays. …
This database will describe sitting postural control in wheelchair, as well as PW pain, and pressure ulcers associated with sitting, in patients with neuromuscular disease (NMD).
The Restless Legs Syndrome (RLS) is a sensorimotor disorder better characterized by an urge to move the legs at rest. Although treatments are available, many patients experience periods of symptoms relief and exacerbation. Whether this is due to the natural history of the disease or to health-related behaviors of daily …
The study aims to observe changes in dopaminergic genes expression in peripheral tissue upon prolonged dopamine agonist treatment on patients with Restless Legs Syndrome (RLS). Similar studies in Parkinson's disease have shown changes in alpha-synuclein expression, which might offer insights into the dopaminergic gene regulation seen in RLS. The dopamine …
Restless Legs Syndrome (RLS) is a disorder that causes painful and uncomfortable sensations in the legs, and its symptoms have a significant impact on sleep and quality of life. Cannabis has been used by some RLS patients as a treatment due to its painkilling and drowsiness effects, however there has …
