Electroencephalogram in Patients With Friedreich's Ataxia for the Study of the Structural and Functional Connectome.
Recruiting now · Not applicable
Conditions studied: Friedreich's Ataxia, Motor Disorders
In brief
Prospective, exploratory, multicenter pilot study investigating the structural and functional connectome in patients with Friedreich's Ataxia (FRDA) using high-density electroencephalogram (HD-EEG). The aim is to identify neurophysiological biomarkers and analyze the relationship between cortical connectivity, cognitive functioning, and clinical severity, particularly in response to rehabilitation treatment.
