Objective: Review the clinical use, efectivity and side efects in a population based cohort. Background: Safinamide is an oral, once a day adjunctive therapy for…CLOVER-DBS: A Prospective, Multi-center Clinical Study with Blinding to Evaluate a Closed Loop Programming Algorithm for Directional Leads Based on External Feedback
Objective: To assess the feasibility and efficacy of a novel closed-loop programming algorithm (CLPA) for directional lead deep brain stimulation (DBS) based on objective feedback…Design of a Phase 3 Efficacy and Safety Trial of Accordion Pill™ Carbidopa/Levodopa for Parkinson’s Disease (PD) Patients Experiencing Motor Fluctuations
Objective: To review the design and unique features of an ongoing phase 3 trial of a gastric-retentive formulation of carbidopa/levodopa (CD/LD), the Accordion Pill™ (AP),…Oral treatment with sphingosine-1-phosphate receptors modulator prevents Parkinson symptoms concomitantly to reduced brain inflammation in MPTP mouse models
Objective: Here we explore the efficacy of an oral treatment with Fingolimod (FTY720), a selective sphingosine-1-phosphate receptors modulator, to prevent MPTP induced nigrostriatal loss and…Levodopa Effect on Dual-Tasking in Freezing of Gait in Parkinson’s Disease
Objective: To assess the effect of levodopa on dual-tasking in situations triggering freezing of gait (FOG) in Parkinson’s disease (PD). Background: The frequency and severity…The effects of treadmill training augmented by virtual reality on postural control and freezing of gait in Parkinson’s disease
Objective: To investigate whether treadmill training with virtual reality is beneficial both for Parkinson’s disease patients with and without freezing of gait (FOG) to address…Correlation between severity of disease, spatio-temporal variables, and kinematic variables during forward and backward walking
Objective: The purpose of this study was to analyze the correlation between disease severity and variable by using spatio-temporal and kinematic variables during forward and…Effects of Intensive Voice and Articulation Treatments on Voice Quality in Parkinson’s disease
Objective: This study evaluated the impact of voice treatment (LSVT LOUD) and articulation treatment (LSVT ARTIC) on voice quality in Parkinson's disease (PD) measured by…Combined administration of A2A receptor antagonist and 5-HT1A/1B receptor agonist reverses neuroinflammation in the 6-OHDA model of Parkinson’s disease
Objective: To investigate whether in a model of Parkinson's Disease (PD), an early treatment with the serotonin 5-HT1A/1B receptor agonist eltoprazine and the adenosine A2A…Clinical trial protocol: Restitution of oral transport, penetration and aspiration with nigral stimulation in Parkinson’s disease?
Objective: In this randomized controlled clinical trial, we aim to characterize the differential effect of subthalamic nucleus (STN) or subthalamic nucleus and substantia nigra pars…
