Deep Brain Stimulation for Visuomotor Function in Parkinson's Disease
Recruiting
Inability to align and refocus the eyes on the objects at different depths, i.e., vergence impairment, frequently affects the quality of life in patients with Parkinson's disease. Our study aims to understand the location-specific effects of subthalamic region deep brain stimulation on vergence by integrating the patient-specific deep brain stimulation models and high-resolution eye-tracking measures. The knowledge gained will allow us to find the most beneficial stimulation location and paramet... Read More

PET Imaging of Cyclooxygenases in Neurodegenerative Brain Disease
Recruiting
Background: About 5 million adults in the U.S. have Alzheimer s disease or another adult-onset neurodegenerative disorder. Many studies have found that inflammation in the brain contributes to these diseases. Researchers want to find a better way to measure this inflammation. Objective: To learn whether COX-1 and/or COX-2 is elevated in the brains of individuals with neurodegenerative brain disease compared to healthy volunteers. Eligibility: Adults age 18 years and older in good general he... Read More

Characterization of Patients With Uncommon Presentations and/or Uncommon Diseases Associated With the Cardiovascular System
Recruiting
Background: - Researchers are interested in studying individuals who have known or suspected metabolic or genetic diseases that put them at a high risk for heart diseases or diseases of their blood vessels. To improve the results of the study, both affected and nonaffected individuals will be asked to provide blood and other samples and will undergo tests to evaluate heart and lung function. Nonaffected individuals will include relatives of affected individuals and healthy nonrelated volunteers... Read More

Deep Brain Stimulation Therapy in Movement Disorders
Recruiting
Background: - In deep brain stimulation (DBS), a device called a neurostimulator is placed in the chest. It is attached to wires in parts of the brain that affect movement. DBS might help people with movement disorders like Parkinson s disease (PD), dystonia, and essential tremor (ET). Objective: - To provide DBS treatment to people with some movement disorders. Eligibility: - Adults 18 years and older with PD, ET, or certain forms of dystonia. Design: Participants will be screened with m... Read More

Registry of Deep Brain Stimulation With the VERCISE™ System: Vercise DBS Registry
Recruiting
The purpose of this registry is to compile characteristics of world-wide outcomes for the use of Boston Scientific's commercially available Vercise DBS System in the treatment of Parkinson's disease. The utilization of Image Guided Programming (IGP), and other commercially available programming features, used as planning tools for the programming of patients with Boston Scientific's Vercise DBS System are also evaluated. Additionally, the utilization of the DBS Illumina 3D feature that may be... Read More

Genotypic Influences on Network Progression in Parkinson's Disease
Recruiting
In this longitudinal study, the investigators will follow Parkinson's disease (PD) patients with and without glucocerebrosidase (GBA) mutations. The investigators hypothesize that the rate of increase in brain network activity over time (network progression rate) is faster in patients with GBA gene mutations.

Deep Brain Stimulation Surgery for Movement Disorders
Recruiting
Background: - Deep brain stimulation (DBS) is an approved surgery for certain movement disorders, like Parkinson's disease, that do not respond well to other treatments. DBS uses a battery-powered device called a neurostimulator (like a pacemaker) that is placed under the skin in the chest. It is used to stimulate the areas of the brain that affect movement. Stimulating these areas helps to block the nerve signals that cause abnormal movements. Researchers also want to record the brain function... Read More
