Investigating Inhibitory Control Networks in Parkinson's Disease
The purpose of this study is to investigate the brain activity associated with non-motor symptoms of movement disorders, including Parkinson's disease and essential tremor. These movement disorders commonly have significant non-motor features also, including depression, cognitive impairment, decreased attention, and slower processing speeds. The investigators are interested in the brain …
Mechanism and Application of DBS in the Treatment of PD
Project name: The mechanism and application of deep brain stimulation in the treatment of Parkinson's diseaseObjective:To test the hypothesis that electrical stimulation of substantia nigra regulates cognitive dysfunction in Parkinson's disease and to reveal its electrophysiological mechanism.Study design:This study is a self-controlled prospective cohort study. By comparing the behavioral characteristics …
Effect of Synbiotic as an Adjuvant Therapy in the Treatment of Parkinson's Disease
This study aims to investigate the possible efficacy and safety of synbiotic preparation of Lactobacillus acidophilus probiotic with prebiotic fibers as an adjuvant therapy in the treatment of Parkinson's disease
Continuous Electrical Neuromodulation of the Globus Pallidus Intern in Parkinson's Disease by the Directional Electrode CARTESIA™
Many patients have benefited from the implantation of brain stimulation electrodes for the treatment of various motor signs of Parkinson's disease in the phase of motor fluctuations. This technique has significantly improved the motor symptomatology of Parkinson's disease and the dyskinesias induced by pharmacological treatment. Technological advances in the field …
The Effect of Different Types of Focus Instructions in Parkinson's Rehabilitation
Parkinson's disease is the most common progressive neurodegenerative movement disorder. Common movement impairments in Parkinson's include balance and walking difficulties. These impairments lead to falls, increased levels of functional dependency, and a decrease in quality of life. Exercise in Parkinson's patients improves their functional symptoms in daily life, enhancing both …
Therapeutic Education for Multiple System Atrophy (MSA) Patients and Their Caregivers
Multiple system atrophy (MSA) is a rare neurodegenerative disorder that leads to major disability, forcing patients and caregivers to adapt their environment and lifestyle. Once they receive the diagnosis, patients and caregivers need to understand the symptoms, cope with them, to digest the diagnosis... All these needs are not completely …
Treating Parkinson's Disease Through Transplantation of Autologous Stem Cell-Derived Dopaminergic Neurons
The goal of this clinical trial is to assess the safety and tolerability of the surgical transplantation of dopaminergic progenitor cells into the brains of participants with Parkinson's disease. The transplanted dopaminergic cells will be derived from the participant's own skin cells.
Exploration of Differences in Metabolite Concentrations by 7Teslas NMR Spectroscopy in Striatum and Subthalamic Nuclei in de Novo Parkinsonian Patients and Control Subjects
Initially, the exploration of brain metabolism by Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy (MRS) of the high magnetic field proton (1H) (11.7T) applied to acute and chronic animal models of Parkinson's disease (PD) showed glutamatergic hyperactivity within the striatum, one of the components of the basal ganglia. Interestingly, acute administration of L-dopa …
TMS-related Measures as Biomarker of Cognitive Impairment in PD
The goal of the present study is to explore the diagnostic and prognostic value of neurophysiological biomarkers obtained through paired-pulse Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) techniques in individuals affected by Parkinson's disease (PD) with and without cognitive decline.The main questions it aims to answer are:TMS measures of cortical excitability are able …
A Phase Ib Trial of Combined Febuxostat and Inosine Therapy in Patients With Parkinson's Disease
This study will test the safety of twice-daily oral dosing of combined febuxostat and inosine in 24 patients with Parkinson's disease. Participants will receive one of the four regimens, taken twice daily for 12 weeks:Who can join: Adults with early-stage Parkinson's disease on stable medication regimens.What participants do:Take their assigned …
