Sponsor's own description
Rehabilitation is crucial in the treatment of people with Parkinson's disease (PD) as it can ameliorate motor and non-motor impairments, improving their clinical profile and quality of life. Considering the complex biological processes occurring in PD brain, the identification of accessible and measurable biomarkers to monitor the events induced by intensive rehabilitation would help in i)testing rehabilitation effectiveness, ii)improving the design of clinical trials and iii)personalizing the rehabilitation strategies by the prediction of patients' responsiveness. The objective of this project is the validation of Raman analysis of saliva and salivary extracellular vesicles (EV) for the differential diagnosis of Parkinson's disease (PD) and atypical Parkinsonism. The proposed diagnostic method can be integrated in the preliminary assessment and monitoring of the patient by providing a quickly and repeatable measurable biomarker. In the end, this will bring tothe personalization of the rehabilitation path and provide an indication on the outcome of the rehabilitation treatment.
