Filter by:The goal of this clinical trial is to investigate feasibility and safety of an oral therapy with zinc in patients affected by Guanine nucleotide-binding protein G(o) subunit alpha (GNAO1) associated disorders. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Is a daily oral therapy with zinc in GNAO1 associated disorders a safe and feasible therapy? - Are there potential changes in general motor skills, general behaviour and well being, day/night rhythm, level of dyskinesia and dystonia, frequency of seizures, quality of life and changes in the microbiome of the patients. Participants with GNAO1 associated disorders will be given an oral zinc therapy for 6 month and will be assessed in 3 visits and 2 phone calls within this trial.
This study compares two modes of the NETTI wheelchair (dynamic or sitting) for patients with hyperkinetic syndromes, to discover which mode is the most comfortable and best suited to these patients. It is a prospective, single-center pilot study comparing two medical devices evaluated using SCED (Single Case Experimental Design) ABAB methodology: NETTI DYNAMIC chair in dynamic mode (intervention group; phase B) versus the same chair in static mode (control group; phase A). The subject will be his/her own control
The aim of this observational study is to investigate relationship between cervical, thoracic, lumbar and thoracolumbar spine posture, spine movement, isometric and eccentric shoulder strength, scapular dyskinesis and core muscle endurance in healthy competitive young swimmers in comparison with healthy recreational swimmers. The main question is whether spine posture affects spine movement, shoulder strength, scapular dyskinesia and core endurance. Participants will asked to complete a warm up period, after that spine posture, spine movement, scapular dyskinesia, shoulder strength and core endurance will be assessed by examiner. Researchers will compare competitive swimmer group and recreational swimmer group. Additionally correlation between spine posture, spine movement, scapular dyskinesia, shoulder strength and core muscle endurance will be investigated in competitive swimmer group. Aim of the study is to determine whether posture have any effect upon these parameters.
The aim of this study is to investigate body awareness and functional movement in patients with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) compared to healthy controls.
this study will be conducted to compare virtual reality and scapular stabilizing exercise among basketball player with scapular dyskinesia on scapular muscle performance, rounded shoulder, pain intensity , disability and hand grip strength
The purpose of this investigation is to compare the effects of a combined hip activation and core stabilization training home exercise program (HEP) versus a hip activation training HEP alone on lower extremity (LE) frontal plane mechanics in healthy individuals. Specific Aim 1: To determine whether between- and/or within-group differences exist on the Forward Step-Down test (FSDT) when comparing a combined hip activation and core stabilization training HEP as compared to a hip activation training HEP. Specific Aim 2: To determine whether between- and/or within-group differences exist on the peak external knee abduction moment when comparing a combined hip activation and core stabilization training HEP to a hip activation training HEP. Specific Aim 3: To determine whether between- and/or within-group differences exist on gluteal and core muscle surface electromyography (sEMG) when comparing a combined hip activation and core stabilization training HEP to a hip activation training HEP. Specific Aim 4: To determine whether a dose-response relationship exists between HEP compliance and change on the FSDT, peak external knee abduction moment, and sEMG.
Levodopa-induced dyskinesia (LID) in Parkinson's disease (PD) are involuntary movements caused by long-term treatment with dopaminergic replacement therapy (levodopa). During the cause of PD, most patients develop LID. In this study, the investigators plan to investigate how the cortico-basal-ganglia networks are affected in LID. The investigators will examine PD patients with and without LID as well as healthy age-matched controls using fMRI and PET. During the fMRI experiment, participants will perform a novel go-no task engaging both motor, emotional and reward brain networks. Patients will be scanned before and after intake of levodopa to study the dynamic effects of dopaminergic therapy. Furthermore, a dopamine transporter PET will be acquired to study the dopaminergic degeneration of the patients with PD.
This study is designed as a prospective, randomized, double-blind, controlled study to assess putative differences in the effect of interleaving stimulation and empirical stimulation with regards to post-operation dyskinesia control. The primary objective is to assess putative differences in the effect of interleaving stimulation and empirical stimulation with regards to dyskinesia control.
The statistical analysis of the collected data aims to reveal the many factors that influence patient involvement in clinical trials. Findings will be disseminated through conferences and scholarly papers to benefit all parties participating in clinical trials. These findings will help to shape the design of future clinical trials for people with tardive dyskinesia, as well as enhance recruiting techniques and retention rates.
This is a single-center, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multiple-ascending doses trial to evaluate the safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetic of LPM3770164 sustained-release tablets orally administered in healthy subjects under fasting state, providing the rationale information for later clinical trials.
