Summary

This study looks at how balance problems, walking difficulties, physical activity, and sleep quality are related in people with Parkinson's disease. Researchers will compare 34 Parkinson's patients to healthy adults of similar age to see which issues are due to Parkinson's and which are part of normal aging. The goal is to better understand how these symptoms interact, which could help improve treatment strategies.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

What this could lead to
If successful, this study could help doctors better understand how Parkinson's affects movement and sleep together, leading to more tailored care plans.
What could go wrong
This is a small observational study (34 people) that only looks for patterns, not a treatment test. Results may not apply to all Parkinson's patients.

Who can take part

This study's own entry requirements. Only the study team can say for certain whether you qualify.

Who is studied

Adults aged 45-70 years will be recruited from the Department of Physical Therapy and Rehabilitation at Biruni University Hospital and from Biruni University. The study population will consist of two groups: individuals diagnosed with Parkinson's disease at Hoehn and Yahr stages 1-3 and age-matched healthy individuals without neurological or neurodegenerative disorders. All participants must be able to walk independently without assistive devices and use a smartphone for wearable device synchronization. Individuals with severe visual or hearing impairments, additional neurological disorders, significant cardiovascular or orthopedic conditions affecting gait, vascular lower extremity pathologies, or less than five years of education will be excluded
