Light Therapy in Parkinson's Disease
The aim of this randomized controlled trial (RCT) is to clarify the effect of bright light therapy on motor symptoms and sleep disorders in patients with Parkinson's disease.
Adaptive vs. Continuous Subthalamic Nucleus Deep Brain Stimulation in Parkinson's Disease
The objective of the CLOSE-PD study is to compare the efficacy of adaptive deep brain stimulation (aDBS) with continue deep brain stimulation (cDBS) in patients with Parkinson's disease. The main question it aims to answer is:- whether the change in daily mean ON time without troublesome dyskinesia in aDBS is …
The Study of Safety and Preliminary Efficacy of Aleeto in Patients With MultIple System Atrophy
This is a single-center, prospective, randomized, open-label, blinded outcome assessment (PROBE) study. At the end of the PROBE study, patients who have completed the study may opt to enter the open-label extension (OLE) study. The objective of the study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability and potential preliminary efficacy of …
Feasibility Study Assessing the Effect of Carbidopa/Levodopa Ratio on Orthostatic Hypotension in Multiple System Atrophy - Parkinsonian Type and Parkinson Disease.
This study is aimed at patients with multi-system atrophy - parkinsonian type (P-MSA) or Parkinson's disease (PD) receiving dopaminergic drugs and suffering from orthostatic hypotension (OH).OH is a drop in blood pressure when standing, which can lead to symptoms of dizziness, lightheadedness, a black veil in front of the eyes …
Association of Transcranial Alternating Current Stimulation with Digital Cognitive Training for Cognitive Remediation in Older Adults
BACKGROUND Cognitive decline in older adults, especially those who develop Mild Cognitive Impairment and Alzheimer's Disease, currently has limited options of pharmacological treatments, with modest efficacy.Digital Cognitive Training (DCT) and Transcranial Alternating Current Stimulation (tACS) are two promising tools for cognitive remediation in this population. In this exploratory study, we …
Rehabilitation of Airway Protection in Parkinson's Disease
Airway protective disorders are a prevalent and progressive consequence of Parkinson's Disease (PD), and often result in aspiration pneumonia which is the leading cause of death in PD. Despite this, a large number of patients with PD do not access specialized services to address these critical deficits. The investigators will …
Understanding How Movements Are Transferred From Task to Task in Parkinson's Disease
The purpose of this study is to understand how a specific brain area, the Posterior Parietal Cortex (PPC), plays a role in movement transfer from walking on a split-belt treadmill (SBT) to walking on the ground in people with Parkinson's disease (PwPD).Here, investigators will apply repeated transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) …
Empathy and (Self-)Compassion in Parkinson's Disease Patients and Caregivers
The goal of this clinical trial is to improve quality of life in Parkinson's Disease (PD) patients by increasing their empathy and their (self-)compassion. The main question it aims to answer is:Does the level of quality of life in PD patients and caregivers improve after empathy/(self-)compassion training?Participants will be delivered …
Subthalamic Nucleus, Akinesia and Parkinson's Disease
This program aims to understand the role of the subthalamic nucleus in the control of the movement in healthy humans and patients with Parkinson's disease, how the STN dysfunction contributes to akinesia and how the STN stimulation improves motor signs in PD patients .
Mental Imagery on Upper Extremity Skills
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 …
