Establishing Pressures at the EGJ During Diaphragmatic Breathing Using High-resolution Esophageal Manometry
The goal of this study is to determine which position, maneuvers or combination thereof generates the highest pressure at the EGJ as assessed by high-resolution esophageal manometry and thus greater or more robust contraction of the diaphragm.
Botulinum Toxin for the Treatment of Involuntary Movement Disorders
Botulism is a severe form of food poisoning caused by bacteria. This bacteria produces several toxins one of which is botulinum toxin A. This toxin causes the symptoms of food poisoning. Small amounts of botulinum toxin A have been used to treat speech disorders such as stuttering and problems with …
Human Movement Database
This study will collect information on the different ways people control limb and body movements. This information will be used to develop a database on normal movements and adaptive movements of people who have diseases that affect the way they move. The database will serve as a tool to improve …
Phenotype/Genotype Correlations in Movement Disorders
The goal of this protocol is to identify families with inherited movement disorders and evaluate disease manifestations to establish an accurate clinical diagnosis by using newest technological advances and investigate the underlying molecular mechanisms. Studies of inherited movement disorders in large families with good genealogical records are especially valuable. Patients …
Genetic Characterization of Movement Disorders and Dementias
Background There are two basic types of movement disorders. Some cause excessive movement, some cause slowness or lack of movement. Some of these are caused by mutations in genes. On the other hand, dementia is a condition of declining mental abilities, especially memory. Dementia can occur at any age but …
Natural History Protocol for Movement Disorders
Background A movement disorder is a condition that causes a person s body to move in ways that are not normal. There are different types. Some disorders cause movements people can t control, such as tics or shaking. Some cause reduced or slow movements. Movement disorders can cause disability in …
Swiss Primary Ciliary Dyskinesia Registry
The Swiss Primary Ciliary Dyskinesia (PCD) Registry is a national patient registry that collects information on diagnosis, symptoms, treatment and follow-up of patients with PCD in Switzerland and provides data for national and international monitoring and research.
International Primary Ciliary Dyskinesia (PCD) Registry
The purpose of the international prospective PCD Patient Registry is to systematically measure, survey and compare different aspects of PCD manifestation, course and treatment, to provide data for epidemiological research and to identify special patient groups suitable for multi-center trials. This International PCD Registry is also part of the European …
COVID-19 in People With Primary Ciliary Dyskinesia
The COVID-PCD is a participatory research project that aims to study how COVID-19 affects people with primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD). The study is advertised through patient support groups and participants register online and answer a baseline questionnaire with details on PCD diagnosis, habitual symptoms, and COVID-19 episodes occurring before study …
Pathogenesis of Primary Ciliary Dyskinesia (PCD) Lung Disease
The overall short-term goals of this project include the following: 1) identify the genes that are key to the function of respiratory cilia to protect the normal lung; and 2) the effects of genetic mutations that adversely affect ciliary function and cause primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD), which results in life-shortening …
