Intestinal Immunity in Neurologic Disease
The purpose of this study is to ascertain the functional profiles of the immune cells within the gastrointestinal tract and to determine how these cells contribute to autoimmune and neurologic diseases.
Long-Term Behavioral and Cognitive Outcomes of Deep Brain Stimulation in Patients With Parkinson's Disease
The goal of this observational study is to evaluate the long-term effect of DBS-STN on cognitive and behavioral outcomes in Parkinson's disease (PD) patients.PD patients will be assessed over time using tests, questionnaires and standardized clinical scales. An initial assessment (T0) and annual follow-up assessments will be carried out for …
Genetics in Parkinson's Disease: Behavioral and Cognitive Outcomes
The genetic landscape of Parkinson's disease (PD) is characterised by rare high penetrance pathogenic variants causing familial disease, genetic risk factor variants driving PD risk in a significant minority in PD cases and high frequency, low penetrance variants, which contribute a small increase of the risk of developing sporadic PD. …
Gait and Balance Impairment in Rare and Very Rare Neurological Diseases
Rare and very rare neurological diseases primarily or exclusively affect the nervous system with a prevalence of < 5 out of 10'000 and 100'000 people, respectively. Besides these, there are undiagnosed neurological diseases: neurological conditions without a diagnosis after completing a full diagnostic examination. Rare, very rare, and undiagnosed neurological …
A Study of Neurodegeneration and Neuronal Fluctuations in Lewy Body Disease and Alzheimer's Disease
The purpose of this research study is to investigate how the brain, memory, thinking, and motor behavior change both in individuals with movement and/or cognitive disorders, as well as healthy individuals. Researchers will look at measurements of memory, thinking, brain wave and muscle activity, daily functioning, and brain scans to …
Social & QoL Behaviors in Parkinson's Disease
Adults with Parkinson's Disease experience an array of challenges and changes in daily living, behaviors, and functioning throughout the progression of their condition. The investigators want to learn more about the effects of Parkinson's Disease on individuals' social behavior and quality of life (QoL) compared to people of the same …
Italian Translation and Validation of the Non-Motor Fluctuation Assessment (NoMoFA) Questionnaire: an Observational, Multicentric, Cross-sectional, 6-months Duration Study on 200 Consecutive Parkinson's Disease Patients.
Parkinson's disease (PD) has been traditionally considered a movement disorder. In fact, it is now recognized as a multisystemic disease involving not only the central nervous system and presenting with a constellation of motor and non-motor features. While the dopaminergic therapy used to control motor symptoms can lead to the …
Pilot Study Investigating Intensity and Quality of Movement Performed During a Parkiboks Session
Studies have shown that non-contact boxing benefits individuals with Parkinson disease. Yet, the content of such sessions, has not yet been investigated. The following research question has therefore been asked: What is the physical intensity, in terms of both movement quality and quantity, as well as cardiovascular demand, in a …
Parkinson's Disease in Asian Americans
The ultimate goal of this project is to use the findings to develop culturally appropriate programs and resources that can be disseminated to key stakeholders to improve access to PD care and increase inclusivity in PD research for Asian Americans. This study will serve as a first step towards developing …
Pesticides and Parkinson´s Disease
The aim of this project is to study whether people exposed to pesticides have a higher risk of developing PD. We will perform an epidemiological study determining the presence of pesticides in urine and comparing signs traditionally associated with PD in early forms.
