NIH awarded a grant to University of Colorado Denver to study slow wave sleep as a biomarker for cognitive improvement through exercise in Parkinson's disease, involving a 120 participant trial.
Description
This NIH grant project investigates the use of slow wave sleep as a biomarker for cognitive improvement induced by rehabilitation exercise in Parkinson's disease patients. The study involves a SMART trial with 120 participants to test the effects of exercise on cognition and the mediating role of slow wave sleep and glymphatic function.
