What the trial is, and whether it could suit you

In recent decades, advances in medicine have significantly improved both quality of life and life expectancy. However, these positive effects are also associated with a considerable increase in the prevalence of age-related diseases. Among these, Alzheimer's disease (AD), Parkinson's disease (PD), and type 2 diabetes (T2D) currently represent a major threat to human health. PD and AD are the most common neurodegenerative diseases in industrialized populations. In particular, AD accounts for 54% of all cases of dementia, with a prevalence of 4.4% among individuals over 65 years of age. PD has a prevalence of about 1% in people older than 60 years, reaching up to 4% in those over 80 years of age. AD and PD are highly disabling disorders with a slow but progressive course, caused by the degeneration and/or death of nerve cells. This results in impairments in the control of movement and bala

📋 Eligibility rules (as published)
Inclusion Criteria: * -Inclusion Criteria: * Inclusion criteria for PD patients. For the IRCCS INM Neuromed, patients will be recruited from those affiliated with the Center for the Study and Treatment of Parkinson's Disease of the Neuromed Institute of Pozzilli. Presence of at least 2 of the 4 cardinal signs (tremor, rigidity, bradykinesia, asymmetric onset), one of which must be tremor or bradykinesia: Absence of atypical symptoms such as: i) early postural instability, freezing episodes, cognitive decline, hallucinations, pathological involuntary movements, vertical gaze palsy; ii) confirmed causes of secondary parkinsonism (focal lesions, medications, toxic substances); Documented response to L-dopa or dopamine agonists (or lack of an adequate therapeutic trial with L-dopa or dopamine agonists). -Inclusion criteria forAD patients. For the University of Campania, patients will be selected at the Department of Advanced Medical and Surgical Sciences of the University of Campania "L. Vanvitelli," located at Piazza Miraglia 2, Naples. The Department will establish a collaboration with the Alzheimer's day centers of ASL NA1 (Geriatric Facility "Villa Walpole" - Via Ponti Rossi, 118 - Naples, and Geriatric Facility "Frullone" - Via Comunale del Principe, 16/A - Naples) to identify potential subjects for screening to verify the parameters required for recruitment. The Geriatrics and Internal Medicine Unit (UOC), AOU University of Campania, will also be involved. Patients with AD will be included following a diagnosis of probable Alzheimer's disease according to the McKhann criteria (2011), supported by positive biomarkers for amyloidopathy (amyloid PET or cerebrospinal fluid amyloid assay). Exclusion Criteria: * Pre-existing psychiatric disorders; * Neurodegenerative neurological diseases such as multiple sclerosis, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, Alzheimer's disease, neuromuscular disorders, epilepsy; * Diagnosis of dementia.
