Glucose Consumption During Deep Brain Stimulation With Functional [18F]FDG-Brain-PET in Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder
The purpose of this randomized, sham-controlled study is to evaluate the effectiveness of DBS therapy in individuals suffering from severe OCD and to investigate DBS treatment with functional [18F]FDG-Brain-PET.
Efficacy and Influencing Factors of ALIC-NAc Deep Brain Stimulation in Treatment-Refractory Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the efficacy and influencing factors of the combination of the anterior limb of internal capsule and nucleus accumbens (ALIC-NAc) deep brain stimulation (DBS) in patients with treatment-refractory obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD). The main questions it aims to answer is: Does the timing …
A Trial to Test Intermittent Deep Brain Stimulation of Nucleus Basalis of Meynert to Treat Alzheimers.
The purpose of this study is to test a new procedure to treat Alzheimer's disease. The procedure is called intermittent Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) of the nucleus basalis of Meynert. There will be up to six participants enrolled at Wellstar MCG Memory Clinic. There will be another six participants similarly …
Effect of Mediterranean Diet on Nutrition in Parkinson's Disease Patients With Bilateral Subthalamic Deep Brain Stimulation
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate whether Mediterranean diet can help manage body weight and improve body composition in adult Parkinson's disease patients who have undergone bilateral subthalamic nucleus deep brain stimulation (STN DBS). The main questions it aims to answer are: Does adherence to the Mediterranean …
REducing SPEECH-related Side-effects of Deep Brain Stimulation in Parkinson's Disease Via Automated Speech Analysis
The investigators' objective is to improve L-dopa sensitive PD-related dysarthria and at the same time reduce DBS-induced speech disorders with the help of automated acoustic analysis in patients with STN-DBS-induced dysarthria.
The BRAINMAP-DBS Study: BRain Network AnalysIs usiNg 7-Tesla MRI and MAgnetoencephalograPhy for Deep Brain Stimulation
Rationale: Deep brain stimulation (DBS) is an effective treatment for essential tremor and Parkinson's disease. The effect of DBS relies on the modulation of dysfunctional motor brain networks and on average 50% motor improvement is achieved, using standardized motor evaluation scores. However, approximately 20% of treated patients show insufficient benefit, …
Impact of Frequency-specific Subthalamic Nucleus Subregion Stimulation on Inhibitory Control in Parkinson's Disease
The core symptoms of Parkinson's disease (PD) include both motor and non-motor symptoms. Cognitive impairment is one of the most common non-motor symptoms in PD patients, with approximately 30% of patients exhibiting cognitive dysfunction at diagnosis and up to 80% eventually progressing to dementia. Among these, impairment of inhibitory control …
Quantifying Motor Network Dynamics to Predict and Enhance Outcomes in Pediatric Dystonia
The goal of this study is to understand the development and progression of childhood dystonia, a movement disorder, in children. The main questions it aims to answer are: How does the activity of the neural network evolve in children with dystonia in the context of motor development? What are the …
A Study of Buntanetap in Participants With PD
This study will examine the long-term safety of buntanetap in participants with PD. This will be a 36-month open-label safety study. This study will be conducted with two cohorts. Cohort 1 will enroll via invitation only for PD participants who have previously participated in buntanetap clinical trials. Cohort 2 will …
Differences in Brain Network Mechanisms Between STN and GPi Deep Brain Stimulation in the Treatment of Craniocervical Dystonia
Craniocervical dystonia, characterized by symptoms distributed in the craniofacial and/or cervical regions, is a type of focal or segmental dystonia and is the most common form of dystonia in adults. Deep brain stimulation (DBS) is a significant therapeutic approach for medically refractory craniocervical dystonia. The commonly utilized DBS targets are …
