Blood Pressure Effects on Cognition and Brain Blood Flow in PD
Effects of Blood Pressure on Cognition and Cerebral Blood Flow in Parkinson Disease

Rövid összefoglaló (regiszter, angolul)
Parkinson's disease (PD) is the second most common neurodegenerative disorder worldwide. Besides causing symptoms that impair movement, PD also causes non-motor symptoms, such as problems thinking and orthostatic hypotension (OH), i.e., low blood pressure (BP) when standing. About one-third of people with PD have OH, which can cause sudden, temporary symptoms while upright, including lightheadedness, dizziness, and fainting. People with PD and OH can also experience problems thinking that happen only while upright and not while sitting - this can occur without other symptoms, such as feeling dizzy or faint. However, the level of low BP that can affect thinking remains unknown, and no guidelines exist for treating OH when it happens without symptoms. This is significant because OH could be a treatable risk factor for thinking problems in PD, but OH is often not treated if people do not report obvious symptoms. This project's goal is to determine how BP affects brain function in PD. The proposed experiments will measure BP and brain blood flow continuously in real-time using innovative wearable technology. Persons with PD with OH and without OH will undergo repeated cognitive tests while supine (lying down) and while upright. I will study the associations between BP, thinking abilities, and brain blood flow, and will compare groups with and without OH. These findings could be important because if a certain level of BP correlates with thinking abilities, then treating OH in PD may prevent thinking problems, which would improve health-related quality of life and reduce disability and healthcare costs.

A(z) ClinicalTrials.gov regisztermezőiből összeállítva. A vizsgálat felépítését írja le.
Ki nem vehet részt
Szó szerint a(z) ClinicalTrials.gov forrásból, témák szerint csoportosítva. Hogy ki vehet részt, azt csak a vizsgálat csapata dönti el.
Korábbi kezelés
- Any involuntary movements (i.e., tremor or dyskinesia) > 3 cm in amplitude (ok if movements are treated with medication), since the motion artifact could interfere with blood pressure monitor data collection
- Taking antihypertensive medications or alpha-adrenergic blocking medications, since these can cause hypotension (see * below)
Más betegség
- Dementia (including PD dementia)
- History of deep brain stimulation (DBS) surgery
- Any current unstable, active medical problem, e.g. decompensated heart failure, liver failure, pneumonia, etc.
- History of cerebral infarction or hemorrhage
- Uncontrolled diabetes or any other systemic disease causing autonomic failure
- Impairment of hearing or vision that is not corrected by devices (e.g., hearing aids or glasses)
- Any other condition, which, in the opinion of the investigator, could place the participant at increased risk.
- Please note that persons may not participate if they are taking any of the following:
- medications to treat high blood pressure (called "antihypertensives") such as clonidine (Catapres), hydralazine, verapamil, diltiazem (Cartia), or medications ending in "-olol", "-artan", or "-pril")
- diuretics (also called "water pills") such as furosemide (Lasix), bumetanide (Bumex), hydrochlorothiazide (HCTZ; Microzide), or spironolactone (Aldactone)
- medications for enlarged prostate such as prazosin (Minipress), terazosin, doxazosin (Cardura), alfuzosin (Uroxatral), or tamsulosin (Flomax)
- If persons are taking these medications and would like to participate in the study, they will be advised to discuss whether they may discontinue these medications for 48 hours before the study visit with their prescribing doctor.
Egyéb
- Moderate or severe carotid artery stenosis (according to North American Symptomatic Carotid Endarterectomy Trial (NASCET) criteria
- Syncope (fainting) within the past week
- Illiteracy (unable to read)
- Currently pregnant (will be confirmed by women of child-bearing potential with a urine pregnancy test)
Kiket keres a vizsgálat
- Diagnosis of idiopathic Parkinson Disease using the Movement Disorders Society (MDS) Clinical Diagnostic Criteria
