Conditions

Summary

The goal of this observational cohort studyis to establish a high-quality clinical cohort of Parkinson's disease (PD) and multiple system atrophy (MSA) patients in Shanghai, in order to improve early diagnosis, precise subtyping, disease monitoring, and to provide a resource for translational research and novel therapy development. The main questions it aims to answer are: * Can multimodal data (clinical, imaging, electrophysiology, biospecimens, and genetics) help identify early biomarkers for PD and MSA? * Can precise subtyping and long-term monitoring predict disease progression and therapeutic response? Researchers will compare 600 PD patients and 100 MSA patients to evaluate differences in clinical features, biomarkers, imaging, and prognosis. Participants will: * Provide informed consent and complete baseline demographic and medical history collection. * Undergo standardized clinical evaluations, including motor and non-motor symptom scales, cognitive and quality-of-life assessments. * Provide biological samples (blood, saliva, optional CSF). * Receive brain imaging (MRI, optional PET/SPECT) and electrophysiological recordings (EEG, fNIRS). * Participate in longitudinal follow-up visits every 6 months for repeat assessments. This study will create a sustainable, multicenter, and sharable cohort platform to support early identification, personalized intervention, and therapeutic development for neurodegenerative diseases


Eligibility

Plain Language Summary

Simplified for easier understanding

This is a long-term observational study collecting detailed clinical and biological information from people diagnosed with Parkinson's disease (PD) or multiple system atrophy (MSA) — a related but distinct neurological condition — in Shanghai, China. The goal is to build a research cohort to better understand disease progression and find biomarkers. **You may be eligible if:** - You have been diagnosed with Parkinson's disease according to Chinese diagnostic criteria (2016) - OR you have been diagnosed with multiple system atrophy (MSA) according to the 2022 Chinese expert consensus - You are willing to provide blood, saliva, and optionally cerebrospinal fluid samples - You are willing to undergo brain imaging (MRI, PET/SPECT) and clinical assessments - You can provide written informed consent **You may NOT be eligible if:** - Your diagnosis is uncertain or unclear - You have a history of stroke, head trauma, brain tumor, or brain surgery - Brain imaging shows an unrelated structural brain problem - You have severe anxiety, depression, or schizophrenia - You have serious heart, lung, liver, kidney, or blood conditions - You have aphasia or severe speech difficulties that prevent assessments Talk to your doctor to see if this trial is right for you.
