Filter by:A project aims at addressing gait impairments and non-motor symptoms such as anxiety and stress in Parkinson's disease (PD) patients through a novel approach involving heart rate variability (HRV) feedback and Augmented Reality (AR) training. The project is based on the premise that improving HRV, which reflects the adaptability of the autonomic nervous system, can enhance both motor functions like gait and non-motor symptoms.
Motor impairment in lower extremities is common in individuals with Parkinson disease (PD). Development sensitive test for early motor deviations is important. Conventional walking test cannot induce the PD related motor impairments, such as freezing of gait. Therefore, finding a safe substitute test to induce PD related motor impairments is important. Studies showed that working memory related dual task walking was a sensitive test for PD. However, the optimal cognitive test needs to be clarified. Studies also showed that the neuromuscular control mechanism of leg movements during cycling were similar to those during walking. Therefore, dual task cycling test is potential to be a safe and sensitive testing model. Studies showed that exercise could improve cognitive function and induce brain plasticity. Dual task exercise training was shown to be more effective than single task exercise training for older people to prevent fall. Whether the added cognitive task could improve to detriment brain plasticity in PD should be investigated. Transcranial magnetic stimulation can evaluate the motor cortex plasticity on-invasively and can evaluate the exercise induced brain plasticity. The purpose of this three-year project is to develop PD-sensitive. The purposes of the first year are to translate the dual task walking test to dual task cycling test, and to establish the reliability of the dual task cycling test. The purposes of the second year are to compare the motor cortex plasticity induced by single task cycling versus dual task cycling and to compare the difference response between PD and healthy control people. The purpose of the third year is to evaluate the effect of 8 week long term cycling training or treadmill training of individuals with PD on motor cortex plasticity, dual task performance, and ambulation ability.
This observational research study is designed to assess the feasibility of developing a new software application that can be used in the home using a commercially available camera to measure abnormal body movements associated with Parkinson's disease (PD). The goal of this study is to validate the motor outcomes derived from a consumer camera observing a sub-set of standardized assessment tasks with respect to the reference motion capture system.
This is a Phase 1/2 study to evaluate the safety and tolerability of 18F-OP-801 in subjects with ALS, AD, MS, PD and age-matched HVs. 18F-OP-801 is intended as a biomarker for PET imaging of activated microglia and macrophages in regions of neuroinflammation.
The proposed control intervention trial, aims to analyse the effects of Dance in the turning characteristics in patients with Parkinson Disease (PD) using three- dimensional (3D) analysis during the timed up and go (TUG) test.
This study will evaluate the effects of CST-2032 when administered with pre-administered CST-107 on safety, tolerability, cognition, cerebral perfusion, and cerebral metabolism in patients with cognitive impairment.
It is commonly admitted that social cognition impairment, like deficit in facial emotion recognition or misinterpretation of others' intentions (Theory of Mind), are associated with social behavior disorders. This kind of disorders are observed in Fronto-Temporal Dementia (FTD), Alzheimer's Dementia (AD) and Parkinson's Disease (PD), with severe deficits in FTD and lighter deficits in AD and PD. One explanation might be that patients apply inappropriate visual exploration strategies to decode emotions and intentions of others. This study aims to test this hypothesis and further to analyse whether different patterns emerge from these pathologies.
This is a multicenter, open-label, non-controlled, non-randomized, phase 3 clinical study to compare the SPECT findings after a single IV administration of DaTSCAN™ ioflupane (123I) injection for patients with a clinical diagnosis of Parkinsonian syndrome (PS) involving striatal dopaminergic deficit (SDD; specifically, Parkinson's disease [PD] [SDD], multiple system atrophy [MSA] [SDD] or or progressive supranuclear palsy [PSP] [SDD]) as compared with patients with a clinical diagnosis of essential tremor (ET) (no SDD) and age-matched healthy controls.
The SIDERA^B telerehabilitation system is enabled by a multi-domain, multi-device platform providing at home multi-component rehabilitation, targeting cardiovascular (Chronic Heart Failure, CHF), pulmonary (Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease, COPD) and neurodegenerative (Parkinson Disease, PD) chronic diseases. The rehabilitation program embeds engagement activities for patient and caregiver, to empower appropriation of the SIDERA^B care routines and fuel their well-being resources. The multidisciplinary layering of SIDERA^B is reflected in the validation protocol including a) clinical and well-being evaluation through a cross-over study confronting usual care with the SIDERA^B activities; b) technological evaluation: Health Technology Assessment for organizational, legal and equity impacts; c) economic evaluation: process mapping and budget impact analysis to define a sustainable reimbursement process for the innovative telerehabilitation pathway.
CODY (co-design for you) is a Virtual Reality (VR) tool and Application Programming Interface (API) which uses an immersive, interactive environment for using, experiencing and co-designing home alterations. The aim of this research is to assess the efficacy of using CODY to aid and enhance the ability of adults with Parkinson's disease (PD) to experience and choose appropriate home modifications.
