Feasibility and Preliminary Effects of the Walking Tall App for Home-Based Gait Training in Parkinson's Disease: A Pilot Study
This is a pilot study designed to assess the feasibility, adherence, and preliminary effects of a 6-week home-based gait training intervention using the Walking Tall mobile app in individuals with Parkinson's disease. The app delivers rhythmic auditory cues and motivational verbal prompts to promote gait improvements. Primary outcomes include daily …
Cerebellar Transcranial Alternating Current Stimulation (tACS) to Modulate Parkinson's Disease Tremor
Parkinson's disease (PD) is a prevalent neurodegenerative disorder characterized by different motor symptoms, including tremor, which is particularly difficult to manage. Common treatments, such as dopaminergic therapy, can have limitations in efficacy. Recent advancements in non-invasive brain stimulation, specifically phase-adaptive transcranial alternating current stimulation (tACS), offer a promising approach to …
Enabling Women with Parkinson's Disease to Identify and Better Manage Hormonal Triggers of Parkinsonian Symptoms
Forty percent of people living worldwide with Parkinson's disease (PD) are women. Twenty percent of patients have PD onset under the age of 60 years, a time when women may encounter significant caregiving responsibilities along with occupational and other competing demands.Studies with surveys of women with PD (WwPD) have reported …
Use of CereGate Therapy for Freezing of Gait in PD
A Multi-Center, Controlled Study to Evaluate Use of CereGate Therapy to Reduce Freezing of Gait in Participants Diagnosed with Parkinson's Disease.
Effects of Motor Imagery Training
Parkinson's disease (PD) is the second most common neurodegenerative disease, characterized pathologically by the progressive loss of dopaminergic neurons in the substantia nigra and clinically by the presence of motor symptoms such as bradykinesia, resting tremor, and/or rigidity. Among the motor deficits frequently observed in PD, patients are known to …
[18F]ACI-15916 PET in α-synucleinopathies
The goal of this clinical trial is to test whether we can reliably and safely measure the accumulation of pathological protein α-synuclein [involved in some diseases such as Parkinson's disease, Lewy body dementia and Multiple System Atrophy (MSA), collectively named α-synucleinopathies] using a new positron emission tomography (PET) tracer called …
A Novel Accessible and Widespread Healthcare Service Model Based on Technology Innovation for Objective (Early) Diagnosis and Therapeutic Monitoring of Parkinson's Disease Promoting Continuity of Care
The present study aims to use the SensMode System - a system composed of wearable devices for upper and lower limb movement analysis and electronic device for data acquisition and processing - on healthy subjects, subjects with idiopathic hyposmia, patients with Parkinson's disease, and subjects with de-novo drug-naïve extrapyramidal syndrome. …
APA and PAS Training for Gait Initiation in Parkinson's Disease
Our research focused on understanding the interplay between brain excitability and balance function in patients with Parkinson's disease (PD), alongside evaluating effective physical therapy methods. It highlights the prevalence of non-motor disorders and cognitive impairments among PD patients, including balance and postural issues, cognitive function decline, and gait instability. Additionally, …
Motor and Cognitive Exercise in Parkinson's Disease.
The aim of this study is to examine the effects of a specialized multi-modal intervention in patients with moderate to advanced Parkinson's disease (PD). The hypothesis is that a specialized motor- and cognitive exercise program in addition to usual care can improve gait and balance better than usual care alone.48 …
The Efficacy and Safety of Precision REpetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation in Alleviating Motor Symptom in Parkinson's Disease
Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) is a non-invasive and widely used neuromodulation technology. Small sample studies have shown that rTMS treatment can significantly improve the symptoms of Parkinson's disease(PD) and delay the progression of the disease. In order to further explore the effectiveness of rTMS in the treatment of PD …
