Overview

Brain calcification is a common neuroimaging feature in patients with metabolic, neurological, or developmental disorders, infectious diseases, traumatic or toxic history, as well as in otherwise normal older people. To understand the clinical and genetic characteristics of brain calcification, we establish a cohort of brain calcification to follow up patients with brain calcification.

Eligibility

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Patients with brain calcium deposit(s) based on examinations of CT scans
  • Patients with total calcification score(TCS) greater than the physiological threshold
  • Relatives of brain calcification patients.
  • Unrelated healthy controls
  • Participants or Parent(s)/legal guardian(s) willing and able to complete the informed consent process

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Brain calcification caused by specific secondary factors such as infection, poisoning, and trauma
  • Participants declining or unable to comply with trial procedures and visit schedule

FAQs

Learn more about clinical trials

What is a clinical trial?

A clinical trial is a study designed to test specific interventions or treatments' effectiveness and safety, paving the way for new, innovative healthcare solutions.

Why should I take part in a clinical trial?

Participating in a clinical trial provides early access to potentially effective treatments and directly contributes to the healthcare advancements that benefit us all.

How long does a clinical trial take place?

The duration of clinical trials varies. Some trials last weeks, some years, depending on the phase and intention of the trial.

Do I get compensated for taking part in clinical trials?

Compensation varies per trial. Some offer payment or reimbursement for time and travel, while others may not.

How safe are clinical trials?

Clinical trials follow strict ethical guidelines and protocols to safeguard participants' health. They are closely monitored and safety reviewed regularly.
