About this study

Official title: Clinical Research on Optimization of Acute Levodopa Challenge Test and Exploration of New Motor Paradigm Based on the Integration of Perception Technology and Artificial Intelligence

A quantitative evaluation method was developed for Parkinson's disease and other atypical parkinonism by integrating an innovative motor paradigm with perception technologies and artificial intelligence. Combined with traditional motor paradigms and the acute levodopa challenge test, this study aims to identify diagnostic cut-off values for PD and other atypical parkinonism, explore digital biomarkers for early and differential diagnosis, and establish a corresponding diagnostic model.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Accuracy

    Using quantitative assessment methods, conduct exploratory research on new methods for early diagnosis.The test correctly identified the total proportion of individuals with and without the disease.

    Measured: baseline

  2. Diagnostic Odds Ratio

    Using quantitative assessment methods, conduct exploratory research on new methods for early diagnosis.The ratio of positive likelihood ratio to negative likelihood ratio reflects the diagnostic efficiency of the test.

    Measured: baseline

  3. Specificity

    Using quantitative assessment methods, conduct exploratory research on new methods for early diagnosis.The proportion of healthy people without a certain disease correctly identified by a diagnostic test. High specificity means that the test rarely misdiagnoses healthy people as disease patients (i.e., low false positive rate).

    Measured: baseline

  4. Negative Predictive Value

    Using quantitative assessment methods, conduct exploratory research on new methods for early diagnosis.Among all individuals who tested negative, the proportion who were truly free of the disease.

    Measured: baseline

  5. Sensitivity

    Using quantitative assessment methods, conduct exploratory research on new methods for early diagnosis.The proportion of patients with a disease correctly identified by a diagnostic test. High sensitivity means that the test rarely misses cases of disease (i.e., low false negative rate).

    Measured: baseline

  6. Positive Predictive Value

    Using quantitative assessment methods, conduct exploratory research on new methods for early diagnosis.Of all the individuals who tested positive, the proportion who actually had the disease.

    Measured: baseline

Secondary outcomes (10)
  1. Negative Predictive Value

    Conduct differential diagnosis between Parkinson's disease and other Parkinsonian syndromes.Among all individuals who test negative, the proportion who are truly free of the disease.

    Measured: baseline

  2. root mean square error

    Quantify the magnitude of the prediction error

    Measured: baseline

  3. Correlation Coefficient

    Strength of the linear relationship between reflection and true results

    Measured: baseline

  4. Specificity

    Conduct differential diagnosis between Parkinson's disease and other Parkinsonian syndromes.Diagnostic tests correctly identify the proportion of healthy people who do not have a disease.

    Measured: baseline

  5. Sensitivity

    Conduct differential diagnosis between Parkinson's disease and other Parkinsonian syndromes.Refers to the proportion of patients with a disease that a diagnostic test correctly identifies.

    Measured: baseline

  6. Positive Predictive Value

    Conduct differential diagnosis between Parkinson's disease and other Parkinsonian syndromes.Of all the individuals who tested positive, the proportion who actually had the disease

    Measured: baseline

  7. Coefficient of Determination

    The proportion of variation that reflects the interpretation of the results

    Measured: baseline

  8. Diagnostic Odds Ratio

    Conduct differential diagnosis between Parkinson's disease and other Parkinsonian syndromes.The ratio of positive likelihood ratio to negative likelihood ratio reflects the diagnostic efficiency of the test.

    Measured: baseline

  9. Accuracy

    Conduct differential diagnosis between Parkinson's disease and other Parkinsonian syndromes.The total proportion of individuals with and without the disease correctly identified by the test

    Measured: baseline

  10. Intraclass Correlation Coefficient

    Conduct differential diagnosis between Parkinson's disease and other Parkinsonian syndromes.Consistency and reliability of evaluation results

    Measured: baseline

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Vascular Parkinsonism and Drug-induced Parkinsonism, run by Beijing Tiantan Hospital at 1 site in China.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 7 inclusion and 6 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 29 Apr 2025. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in China. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Tao Feng, MD (86-13911125339, bxbkyjs@sina.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Accuracy (time frame: baseline). The study lists 6 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 29 Apr 2025.
