Which Tools Better Predict Fall Risk in Parkinson's Disease: A Comparative Study of Objective, Self-Reported, and Functional Balance Assessment
Introduction: Falls are common in Parkinson's disease (PD), affecting 30-90% of patients annually, with more than half experiencing recurrent falls. Identifying balance assessment tools that are both practical and predictive of fall risk is therefore essential. This study aimed to investigate the relationship between fall frequency and three balance assessment …
Research Into the Expression of the csgA-gene and How it Changes in Patients With Parkinson's Disease
This study seeks to understand the prevalence and variability of a gut bacteria gene called csgA in people with Parkinson's Disease. This understanding could inform development of potential new therapies targeting the gut in Parkinson's Disease.
Brain Activity, Cognitive Function, and Walking Ability in Parkinson's Disease
The dual-task automated walking performance in people with Parkinson's disease (PD) is affected by their gait disturbances and impaired executive functions. Currently, the relationship between brain activity related to inhibitory control, executive functions, and dual-task walking performance in people with PD is not well understood. Therefore, this study aims to …
Deep Brain Stimulation-Induced Mania in Parkinson's Disease
Parkinson's Disease (PD) is a common and debilitating neurodegenerative disease. While medication can alleviate its symptoms, not all patients will adequately respond to medical therapy. For these cases, deep brain stimulation (DBS) has been used to improve symptoms and quality of life. Nevertheless, this approach is, in some cases, associated …
An Observational Study of Subcutaneous Infusion of ABBV-951 to Assess Change in Disease Activity and Adverse Events In Adult Japanese Participants With Advanced Parkinson's Disease
Parkinson's disease (PD) is a neurological condition, which affects the brain. Some symptoms of PD are tremors, stiffness, and slowness of movement. The purpose of this study is to assess how safe and effective ABBV-951 is in treating participants with Parkinson's disease in real world setting.ABBV-951 is an approved drug …
Effect of Trunk Flexion on Airway Defense in Parkinson's Disease
The main mechanisms of airway protection include a properly functioning swallowing process and a cough. Studies focusing on patients with Parkinson's disease (PD) have previously demonstrated impairments in both swallowing (dysphagia) and coughing (dystussia). Aspiration pneumonia is the leading cause of death in individuals with PD.Swallowing function is directly related …
A Post-Approval Registry for Exablate 4000 Type 1.0 and Type 1.1 for Unilateral Thalamotomy for the Treatment of Medication-Refractory Tremor Dominant Idiopathic Parkinson's Disease
The objectives of this study are to collect the long-term safety and effectiveness data of performing thalamotomy for tremor dominant Parkinson's Disease (TDPD) using the Exablate Neuro system.
Cohort Study to Identify Predictor Factors of Onset and Progression of Parkinson's Disease
Observational, prospective, monocentric study to assess clinical features, imaging and biologic biomarkers in Parkinson disease (PD) patients and rate of progression compared to healthy controls (HC) and subjects at risk to develop PD.The primary objective of this study is to identify clinical, imaging and biologic markers of PD onset and …
Deep Brain Stimulation for Visuomotor Function in Parkinson's Disease
Inability to align and refocus the eyes on the objects at different depths, i.e., vergence impairment, frequently affects the quality of life in patients with Parkinson's disease. Our study aims to understand the location-specific effects of subthalamic region deep brain stimulation on vergence by integrating the patient-specific deep brain stimulation …
Influence of Glucose on Metabolism and Clinical Symptoms of Patients With Parkinson's Disease
Many patients with Parkinson's Disease (PD) report an increased consumption of fast-acting sugars. This tendency to consume sweet, high-sugar foods occurs in some patients even before the onset of cardinal motor symptoms. Some recent studies have demonstrated that PD patients have an increased consumption of fast-acting carbohydrates compared to healthy …
