Filter by:Design：Randomization, double-blind, single-center, single-dose, dose-escalation , placebo and parallel control Objectives： 1. To investigate the tolerability and safety of Chinese healthy adult subjects after a single oral administration of Finamine tablets; 2. To investigate the pharmacokinetic (PK) characteristics of Finamine tablets; 3. To provide dose setting basis for follow-up clinical studies. Investigational subject:Healthy-adult subjects in China 34 cases (including 4 cases of the pre- trial), of which the 150mg dose group is in the 4 cases of pre- trial (open, all accepted Finamine tablets orally, among whom, two receive it under fasting condition , and the other two receive it half an hour post a high-fat meal started). There are 6 cases in the formal trial (the subjects' ratio of investigational drug to placebo is 2:1). In all other dose groups, the subjects' ratio of investigational drug to placebo is 3:1.
Inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD) and Parkinson disease (PD) are complex and multifactorial pathologies. Gut microbiota seems to play an active role. Indeed the digestive microbiota of patients with IBD or PD exhibits different compositions compared with asymptomatic subjects. Bacterial translocation from gut to blood has been reported.
This study will be conducted in subjects with established Parkinson's disease in 2 parts. Part A will examine the tolerability, safety, and pharmacokinetics of AZ-009 dose escalation ; and Part B will assess the tolerability, safety, pharmacokinetics, and pharmacodynamics of AZ-009 compared with placebo in a crossover design
The purpose of this study is to find out whether a non-invasive form of nerve stimulation called transcutaneous vagus nerve stimulation (taVNS) is safe and effective in people with Parkinson's Disease.
The study investigates analgesic effects of expectations and deep brain stimulation on chronic and evoked pain in patients with Parkinson's disease. The study includes patients with Parkinson's disease that are exposed to pain stimuli through injection of hypertonic saline. During pain induction and chronic pain evaluation deep brain stimulation treatment is regulated. Pain stimuli and regulation of deep brain stimulation are accompanied by verbal suggestions as to the analgesic effect of deep brain stimulation or no suggestions. During the test session patients evaluate their chronic and evoked pain and expectations. The study procedure is repeated on two separate test days to investigate pain during deep brain stimulation treatment with or without verbal suggestions. All participants will complete all study conditions with no suggestions and verbal suggestions, respectively.
This Stage II randomized, controlled, longitudinal trial seeks to assess the acceptability, feasibility, and effects of a driving decision aid use among geriatric patients and providers. This multi-site trial will (1) test the driving decision aid (DDA) in improving decision making and quality (knowledge, decision conflict, values concordance and behavior intent); and (2) determine its effects on specific subpopulations of older drivers (stratified for cognitive function, decisional capacity, and attitudinally readiness for a mobility transition). The overarching hypotheses are that the DDA will help older adults make high-quality decisions, which will mitigate the negative psychosocial impacts of driving reduction, and that optimal DDA use will target certain populations and settings.
This study is designed to measure the change in patients diagnosed with Parkinson's disease (PD) before, during and after a 12 week exercise program.The focus of this study is the glymphatic system. The glymphatic system is a recentlydiscovered novel waste clearance pathway, in patients with Parkinson's Disease (PD).The glymphatic system acts as a waste-clearance system in the brain of vertebrate animals.The glymphatic system has been proposed in which new clearance pathways involving communication between paravascular spaces, interstitial fluid, and ultimately meningeal and dural lymphatic vessels exists, and we have provided evidence that this system may be dysfunctional in patients with Parkinson's disease with cognitive disorders. Early research suggest glymphatic function increases following exercise, this response is believed to clear beta-amyloid in the brain and may mediate the neurobehavioral response to exercise in PD. This study will use cognitive exams, neurological exams as well as specialized imaging to record data points and evaluate the glymphatic function after exercise.
The aim of the study is to evaluate the efficacy of osteopathic manipulations added to an intensive, multidisciplinary rehabilitative (MIRT) program on postural control of PD-PS patients.
The primary aim of this study is to determine whether low-vision occupational therapy improves quality of life in Parkinson's Disease (PD) patients. Low-vision occupational therapy has not been previously studied in PD patients, and we suspect that this is a beneficial treatment option for PD patients as vision impairment is common in the PD patient population. Our primary objective will assess whether quality of life was improved following a low-vision occupational therapy session.
The purpose of this research study is to: - Collect data to use in the development of a standardized tool for identifying patients with Parkinson's disease (PD) who would benefit from advanced therapies (AT) such as deep brain stimulation (DBS) and drug pumps. - Determine the level to which specific activities reflect with quality of life in individuals with PD. - Obtain feedback from individuals with Parkinson's disease and clinicians on the usability of the system.
