Circadian Character of Food Compulsions and Impulses Control Disorders in Parkinsonian Patients With and Without Resting Leg Syndrome

Category Primary study
Registry of Trialsclinicaltrials.gov
Year 2019
Investigator have recently shown that Parkinson disease patients\' with restless leg Syndrome have more frequent impulse control behavior in particular compulsive feeding that patients without Restless Leg Syndrome (RLS). Investigator hypothesized that presence of RLS in parkinsonian patients could be a risk factor for the emergence of TCI or associated behaviors, occurring preferentially at night. The main objective of this study is to evaluate in patients with idiopathic Parkinson\'s disease (IPD) the effect of the presence of a RLS on the evening compulsive eating behavior by studying the circadian modulation of food intake of patients with RLS and impulse control disorders. For this investigator conduct a prospective study, with 2 groups of Parkinson disease patients (with and without restless leg syndrome), to which investigator have to fill an agenda to know the schedule of the behaviors during the day and the night.
