Protocol summary

Study aim
Evaluation of the effect of synbiotic supplementation on antioxidant and inflammatory markers, serum zonulin level and quality of life in patients with Parkinson's disease
Design
this is a randomized, double blind, parallel, placebo-controlled clinical trial, in which 80 Parkinson's disease will be divided into two groups: receiving synibiotics and Parkinson's appropriate diet or placebo and Parkinson's appropriate diet
Settings and conduct
Participants will be selected among Parkinson's disease referred to Imam Musa Sadr Clinic in Isfahan and will be randomly divided into two groups intervention and placebo and will be studied for 12 weeks. Supplements and placebo will be packed in similar boxes. To double-blind this study, treatment and placebo packets will be coded as A and B By someone other than the researcher prior to study initiation.

Intervention groups
The intervention group will receive 5 g/d synbiotic supplement and Parkinson's appropriate diet and control group will receive 5 g/d maltodextrin , and Parkinson's appropriate diet
Main outcome variables
symptoms of disease by MDS-UPDRS, Hoehn and Yahr score, inflammatory markers, total antioxidant and oxidant capacity, Malondiadehyde, glutathione, quality of life, zonulin,lipopolysaccharide(endotoxin), depression, anxiety,fatigue

Randomization (investigator's opinion)
Randomized
Randomization description
Randomization will be done by stratified Permuted Block Randomization, via the website, https://www.sealedenvelope.com/simple-randomiser/v1/lists. Each block has capacity for two subjects. Subjects will be stratified according to gender and age. After that, subjects will be randomly assigned to treatment or placebo groups, within each block. Researchers will not inform about the randomization process until completion of data analyses. Allocation concealment will be conducted by application of sealed envelopes containing treatment or placebo, created by a colleague that is not involved with data gathering and participant evaluation (concealment).
Blinding (investigator's opinion)
Double blinded
Blinding description
This study is a randomized double-blind clinical trial. The synbiotic supplement and its placebo will be packed in the same boxes in terms of appearance (color, shape, smell, weight) and the researcher, patients, evaluators , those responsible for collecting data and data analyzer will not be informed of the contents of the packages until the end of the study.
