Filter by:The goal of this clinical trial is to explore the impact of Simple Gymnastics Training on Limb motor function and mental health in Parkinson's Patients in the Community (≥60 year old) with swallowing disorders. It primarily aims to address two key aspects: 1) the prevalence of Parkinson's Diseases among community-dwelling elderly individuals, and 2) the effects of Simple Gymnastics Training on Limb motor function and mental health in community-dwelling Parkinson's Patients. All patients are required to undergo a continuous three-week (21 days) Simple Gymnastics Training, with weekends off and training conducted only on weekdays. The training will be conducted two sessions per day, lasting 30 minutes each.
The goal of this or clinical trial is to explore efficacy of stellate ganglion block on dysphagia and activities of daily living in patients with Parkinson's disease. The main question it aims to answer are: • Can stellate ganglion block improve the dysphagia and activities of daily living in patients with Parkinson's disease. Participants will be divided into the the control group and observation group evenly. All the patients were provided with routine therapy, while the patients in the observation group were given stellate ganglion block. The swallowing function, and activities of daily living of the two groups of patients before and after treatment were evaluated.
The goal of this or clinical trial is to explore Intermittent Oro-esophageal Tube Feeding vs. Nasogastric Tube Feeding on nutritional status, dysphagia, and activities of daily living in patients with Parkinson's disease. The main question it aims to answer are: • Can stellate ganglion block improve the nutritional status, dysphagia, and activities of daily living in patients with Parkinson's disease, better than Nasogastric Tube Feeding. Participants will be divided into the control group and observation group evenly. All the patients were provided with routine therapy and given nutritional support by Intermittent Oro-esophageal Tube Feeding and Nasogastric Tube Feeding respectively. The nutritional status, swallowing function, and activities of daily living of the two groups of patients before and after treatment were evaluated.
In previous clinical studies, PS128 has been reported to ameliorate motor deficits in Parkinson's disease (PD). PS23 has been reported to delay some age-related disorders. On the basis of previous animal and clinical studies which hope that this study can support the theory of the gut-brain axis, and have the opportunity to realize the relationship between peripheral inflammation and neurodegeneration.
This is a first-in-human study to evaluate the safety and tolerability of repeat oral administrations of MRx0029 (20 participants) or MRx0005 (20 participants) in participants diagnosed with idiopathic PD. Participants who are successfully screened will be randomized to 1 of 2 treatment sequences (TS) within their cohort (10 participants per sequence). Each treatment period will be separated by a washout period of 4 to 6 weeks. Cohort A Treatment Sequence 1: MRx0029 (1 capsule bid) for 4 weeks; 4-to 6-week washout period; placebo (1 capsule bid) for 4 weeks. Cohort A Treatment Sequence 2: Placebo (1 capsule bid) for 4 weeks; 4-to 6-week washout period; MRx0029 (1 capsule bid) for 4 weeks. Cohort B Treatment Sequence 1 MRx0005 (1 capsule bid) for 4 weeks; 4- to 6-week washout period; placebo (1 capsule bid) for 4 weeks. Cohort B Treatment Sequence 2: Placebo (1 capsule bid) for 4 weeks; 4-to 6-week washout period; MRx0005 (1 capsule bid) for 4 weeks Cohort A will be randomized first and when all participants have been randomized to Cohort A, Cohort B enrollment will begin.
The aim of this randomized controlled pilot trial is to assess the impact of different gait rehabilitation programs on the level of physical activity and gait in daily life in patients with Parkinson's disease (PD). Two groups of 25 patients with PD will benefit from one of two gait training programs (treadmill vs. nordic walking), 3 times a week for 12 weeks. Activity level and number of steps will be remotely recorded over 7 days before, at the end, 3 and 6 months after the end of the program. Quality of life will be recorded at each time point. The impact of the gait programs on the patients' level of daily activity will be examined, comparing the changes brought about by the two programs, taking into account the modulating influence of age and cognitive function. Gait under conditions of daily life will be compared to gait parameters collected in the laboratory.
This research is being done to develop a unique matching process for caregivers of persons living with dementia, such as Alzheimer's disease, Lewy body dementia, frontotemporal degeneration, or other dementia syndromes. Dementia caregivers often assume greater caregiving burden than do non-dementia caregivers, and the caregiving duration tends to be longer. Many caregivers do not have the adequate support they need. Peer-to-peer support has been shown to improve quality of life, increase use of services, improve caregiver health, and reduce hospitalizations in the person they are caring for. This study will assess a technology platform and matching process for the purpose of peer-to-peer emotional support aimed at improving overall wellbeing in dementia care partners/caregivers.
This is an open-label, sequential cohorts, flexible dose study to evaluate the tolerability, safety and pharmacokinetics of iloperidone in elderly patients with Parkinson's disease psychosis (PDP).
This is an observational pilot study to assess the feasibility of remote functional assessments of gait, balance, and functional mobility via a telemedicine platform enabled via the Abbott Infinity devices. The clinical care of the participant will not be changed based on the remote functional assessments.
The purpose of this study is to compare data from a battery of novel mobile health technologies to standard-of-care validated patient questionnaires and clinician rating scales in Parkinson's disease patients.
