Scientists probe the mystery of exhaustion in aging and Parkinson's
NCT ID NCT07485218
Summary
This study aims to better understand the feeling of fatigue in older adults and people with Parkinson's disease. Researchers will have 120 participants fill out questionnaires about their tiredness and perform two short, simple exercises (a handgrip and a seated leg movement) while their muscle activity is measured. The goal is to see if the fatigue people report in daily life relates to how quickly their muscles tire during activity.
