PARKINSON DISEASE (PD)

This trial tests whether a motor rehabilitation program using mixed reality games can improve postural stability (balance) in children and adults with neurological impairments, such as cerebral palsy, Parkinson's disease, multiple sclerosis, or stroke. Participants will be random…

This trial investigates whether transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) can help people with Parkinson's disease who experience freezing of gait — a sudden inability to move their feet while walking. Participants first receive standard TMS to the motor cortex; those who don't imp…

This study tests whether an immersive virtual reality program can improve balance in people with Parkinson's disease. Fifty participants in Spain will either receive the VR program or standard physical therapy. The goal is to see if VR can help with balance and reduce fall risk.

This study tested whether combining a non-invasive brain stimulation technique (rTMS) with daily smell training could help people with Parkinson's disease recover their sense of smell and taste. 120 participants were split into four groups to compare the combo therapy against eac…

This study looked at whether a special exercise program focusing on muscle power (moving quickly) could help people with Parkinson's disease who have slow movements (bradykinesia). Twenty-two adults with Parkinson's were split into two groups: one did standard exercises, and the …

This study tested if a non-invasive brain stimulation technique called repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) could improve thinking and walking in people with Parkinson's disease. 41 participants received either real or fake rTMS sessions over two weeks. The results…

This study tested whether a virtual reality exercise program (exergames) could improve balance and reduce fall risk in people with mild to moderate Parkinson's disease. One hundred participants were randomly assigned to either VR exercise or standard therapy for 3 months. Researc…

This study compares three different ways to assess fall risk in people with Parkinson's disease: a machine-based balance test, a self-reported confidence questionnaire, and a functional balance exam. Researchers will track falls over six months in 40 participants with mild to mod…

This study looked at how leg muscles work in people with Parkinson's disease when they walk forward and backward while also doing a mental task. Researchers compared 30 Parkinson's patients to healthy people of similar age. The goal was to understand why multitasking while walkin…

This study used eye-tracking to see how people with Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, or frontotemporal dementia look at faces when trying to recognize emotions. Researchers compared their eye movements to healthy adults. The goal was to understand if different visual strategies explain …

This study tested whether a mix of online lessons and hands-on simulation suits could help nursing students feel more empathy for people with Parkinson's disease. 84 third-year nursing students took part, with one group using special suits that mimic Parkinson's symptoms in a hom…
