Motor Skill Learning in People with Parkinson’s Disease
Official Study Title: Evaluation of the Plasticity of the Primary Motor Cortex and Motor Learning in Parkinson's Disease Sponsor: National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS) Clinicaltrials.gov ID: NCT00396942 Study ID: 070020; 07-N-0020 Summary: People with Parkinson's disease (PD) sometimes have trouble learning new skills, but it is not known why. This study will compare brain changes in people with PD with those of healthy participants while they learn motor skills. This study will use repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS), nerve conduction studies (electrical nerve stimulation), and electroencephaolography (EEG) to look for differences in the way the brain changes with learning in people with PD. EEG measures the electrical activity of the brain (brain waves). rTMS involves repeated magnetic pulses delivered in short bursts of impulses. redline.jpg Full Details: PDTrials.org http://www.pdtrials.org/front/trial_...p?trial_id=161ClinicalTrials.gov http://clinicaltrials.gov/ct/show/NCT00427674?order=1redline.jpg

The world is moved along, not only by the mighty shoves of its heroes, but also by the aggregate of the tiny pushes of each honest worker. ~~Helen Keller |
