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.
Evaluation of the Effectiveness of the Parkinson Specialized Teams Intervention
A pilot experiment interventional study is proposed in order to set up multidisciplinary team for Parkinson's patients at home. The aim of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of this specialized Parkinson's team (ESPark) intervention a on the quality of life of patients with moderate to severe Parkinson's disease
A Multicenter Clinical Study of rTMS for Parkinson's Disease
Through rTMS, motor dysfunction and non-motor dysfunction of PD patients can be improved, working and living ability and quality of life of patients can be improved, and social burden and family burden can be reduced.
Quantitation of Glymphatic Functioning in Sleep and Meditative States
This involves development and application of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) methods for visualizing hemodynamic and metabolic relationships in healthy volunteers with advanced meditation experience.
Efficacy and Safety of Fecal Microbiota Transplantation in the Treatment of Parkinson's Disease With Constipation
Parkinson's disease(PD) may cause the autonomic nervous system's improper functioning, which is responsible for regulating the intestinal tract movement. A certain degree of degeneration of digestive system function can cause PD patients to constipation symptoms. Studies have shown that up to 63 percent of people with Parkinson's disease experience constipation. …
Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation and Dual Tasks
The project aims to evaluate the clinical and biological effects on patients with Parkinson's disease of an innovative treatment characterized by the use of transcranial Direct Current Stmulation (tDCs) with Dual Task (DT), i.e. including the performance of motor activities in conjunction with the request of cognitive performance, such as …
Personalized Repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (rTMS) in Cognitive Fluctuations of Dementia With Lewy Bodies (DLB): Proof of Concept
The present study is a monocentric, therapeutic clinical trial involving forty patients diagnosed with Dementia with Lewy Bodies (DLB). The aim of this clinical trial is to evaluate the feasibility and relevance of repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS); a non-invasive neuromodulation technique, with a main emphasis on the evaluation of …
Effects of RAS on Gait in PD Patients With DBS
Participants will be asked to walk along with the metronome beats (RAS) during the participants' stimulation state (ON or OFF) for four minutes for each state. The researcher will collect the gait parameters (cadence, velocity, and stride length) of patients before, during, and after RAS in both DBS ON and …
MRgFUS Thalamotomy for Therapy-Resistant Tremor-related Disease With Low SDR Value
A study to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of ExAblate transcranial MRgFUS Thalamotomy treatment of medication refractory tremor-related diseases subjects with low skull density ratio (SDR) value. Essential tremor (ET) and Parkinson disease (PD) are the most prevalent tremor disorders. ET, considered as a pure tremor disease, is characterized by …
Cortical Network Modulation by Subthalamic Nucleus DBS
Deep brain stimulation of the subthalamic nucleus (STN DBS) in Parkinson's disease (PD) can provide substantial motor benefit yet can also produce unwanted mood and cognitive side effects. Although the neural mechanisms underlying benefits and side effects are not well understood, current hypotheses center on the potentially measurable yet currently …
