1. 1. Cost Analysis of Levodopa Micro Tablet Dispenser for Treatment of Parkinson's Disease

   University essay from KTH/Matematisk statistik

   Author : Alexander Larsson; Anna Söderbärg; [2023]
   Keywords : Parkinson s disease; MDS-UPDRS; quality-adjusted life year; incremental cost-effectiveness ratio; Markov chain; Markov model; micro tablet dispenser; levodopa; Parkinsons sjukdom; MDS-UPDRS; kvalitetsjusterade levnadsår; inkrementell kostnadseffektivitetskvot; Markovkedja; Markovmodell; mikrotablettdispenser; levodopa;

   Abstract : Parkinson's is a chronic, progressive, neurodegenerative disease. The most common treatment is levodopa/carbidopa, which suppresses the symptoms of the disease. In this report, a cost-utility analysis of the MyFID levodopa/carbidopa micro tablet dispenser has been conducted. READ MORE

3. 2. EVOKED PHASE COHERENCE AS A BIOMARKER FOR ADAPTIVE NEUROMODULATION IN RAT MODEL OF PARKINSON'S DISEASE

   University essay from Umeå universitet/Institutionen för psykologi

   Author : Love Zackrisson; [2023]
   Keywords : Adaptive; Closed Loop; Neuromodulation; Parkinson’s Disease; Rat model; 6-OHDA; ITC; Phase Coherence; Bayesian Model; Classifier; Spinal Cord Stimulation; Deep Brain Stimulation.; Adaptiv; Closed Loop; Neuromodulation; Parkinson’s Sjukdom; Råttmodell; 6-OHDA; ITC; Faskoherens; Bayesiansk Modell; Klassificerare; Ryggradsstimulering; Djup Hjärnstimulering.;

   Abstract : Neuromodulation, such as spinal cord stimulation (SCS) and deep brain stimulation (DBS), has been shown to modulate pathophysiological brain activity and provide symptomatic therapy for several neurological disorders, including Parkinson’s Disease. The effectiveness of this therapy could likely be further improved by neuromodulation that is adaptive, delivering stimulation more selectively, by monitoring a biomarker in recorded brain signals, which indicates the presence of a pathological state.

4. 3. APP DEVELOPMENT, DATA COLLECTION AND MACHINE LEARNING IN DETERMINING MEDICINE DOSAGE FOR PARKINSON'S DISEASE

   University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för elektroteknik

   Author : Daniel Olsson; Jonathan Eriksson; Sedigheh Soltani; [2022]
   Keywords : Parkinson s Disease; Support Vector Machine; Machine Learning; APP Development; React Native;

   Abstract : Parkinson’s disease is a neurodegenerative disorder that affects approximately 0.2% of the population having motor disabilities as its most prominent feature. A symptom of the disease is lowered dopamine levels which often is countered by oral intake of a medication called Levodopa. READ MORE

5. 4. Medicinedoseage with AI

   University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för elektroteknik

   Author : Robert Tang; Kettunen Elias; Anton Boberg; [2021]
   Keywords : A.I; Parkinson; Levodopa;

   Abstract : Parkinson’s disease(PD) is a neurodegenerative disease that mainly affects the motor system. These symptoms can be treated temporarily with medicine,but it’s difficult to determine the right dosage. READ MORE

6. 5. HIGH-FREQUENCY OSCILLATIONS IN A MOUSE MODEL OF PARKINSON’S DISEASE

   University essay from Umeå universitet/Institutionen för psykologi

   Author : Love Zachrisson; [2020]
   Keywords : 6-OHDA; Parkinson s Disease; Basal Ganglia; LID; Gamma oscillation; 80Hz; HFO; Multichannel electrode array; Parkinsons sjukdom; 6-OHDA; LID; HFO; Gamma oscillering; 80Hz; Basala Ganglierna; Elektrodimplantat;

   Abstract : Dopamine replacement therapy is the main method of treating Parkinson’s Disease (PD), however over time this treatment causes increasingly abnormal, involuntary movements. This symptom, known as Levodopa-Induced-Dyskinesia (LID) is associated with aberrant, high frequency oscillations (HFOs) in the motor cortex and basal ganglia, as demonstrated with implanted electrodes in human Parkinson’s patients as well as in a rat model of Parkinson’s Disease.
