This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only

Completed
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.

Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.

Summary

This study follows 30 people with Parkinson's disease who are scheduled to receive deep brain stimulation (DBS). Researchers will test whether brain scans, thinking tests, and other measures can predict who might experience cognitive decline after surgery. Participants complete tests before surgery and again at 3, 12, and 60 months after. The goal is to help doctors personalize treatment to avoid cognitive risks.

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 could help doctors personalize DBS surgery to reduce the risk of memory or thinking problems after the procedure.
What could go wrong
This is a small, single-center observational study, not a treatment trial. It aims to improve predictions, not to test a new therapy, so direct patient benefits are uncertain.
