NCT ID: NCT02551705 Not yet recruiting - Clinical trials for Huntington's Disease

Functional Imaging of Social Cognition in Premanifest Huntington's Disease

FISCIP
Start date: October 2015
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Huntington's disease (HD) is a genetic progressive fatal neurodegenerative disorder. In the western world it affects 5-10 persons per 100000. The main brain changes include the loss of brain cells in subcortical structures. The symptoms of HD include involuntary movements, cognitive deterioration and behavioural disturbances. It has been shown that changes in emotion comprehension occur before the onset of the motor symptoms (preHD). This deficit in perception of emotions has been primarily investigated by means of facial expressions. However, emotions can also be expressed through body language. Here, the investigators propose to investigate whether the emotion comprehension deficit in preHD also includes body language comprehension.
