TMS for Cognitive Decline in Aging and Preclinical AD
In this research study we want to learn more about the effects of non-invasive brain stimulation on motivation, memory, and brain-network function in cognitively unimpaired older adults and individuals with preclinical Alzheimer's disease. This study will use a form of non-invasive brain stimulation called repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (rTMS). rTMS …
Cognitive Vitality Pilot Study
This study's purpose is to evaluate the effects of a dietary supplement on cognitive function and psychological well-being in community-dwelling older adults aged 55+. The study involves taking a commercially available dietary supplement daily for 45 days. A 45-minute assessment will be conducted at the beginning and again at the …
Exercise to Improve Brain Health in Older African Americans
The goal of this clinical trial is to test the effects of different types of exercise on brain health and Alzheimer's risk in older African Americans. Specifically, the main question[s] it aims to answer are: What is the effect of a Cardio-Dance Fitness (CDF) vs. a Strength, Flexibility, and Balance …
Probiotics in Mild Alzheimer's Disease
The main objective is to investigate whether administration of probiotics to patients with mild Alzheimer's Disease (AD) reduces neuroinflammation, improves cognitive function and modifies neurophysiological measures, compared to a patient group that receives placebo (no active probiotics).
Covid-19 Effects on Arterial Stiffness and Vascular Aging (CARTESIAN)
The purpose of the study is to evaluate the presence of early vascular aging 6 months and 12 months after COVID-19 infection.
Targeting Aging With a Ketone Ester for Function in Frailty
This study aims to find out if a food supplement that contains a naturally occurring substance, ketones, can help to improve strength and general wellness in adults at, or over the age of 65 years who are experiencing a slight decline in their physical function. Participation will involve a screening …
Role of Aging and Individual Variation in Exercise Training Responsiveness
The primary purpose of this study is to assess the effects of aging on markers of physical reserve and exercise-induced adaptations in resilience in older adults who completed a structured exercise program within the last 15 years (Parent trial: STRRIDE-PD; NCT00962962). This feasibility pilot study will enroll up to 8 …
Skin Barrier Function and Inflammation in Aging: The BIA Study
This is a randomized, investigator-blinded, self-controlled pilot study of the physiologic response to topical moisturizers among older adults with dry skin. The overarching hypothesis is that skin barrier decline is an important source of chronic inflammation, and that skin barrier restoration with moisturizers can reduce serum biomarkers of inflammation. The …
Effect of Gut Microbiome Intervention on Aging Via Oral FMT
A severe public health issue facing global population is aging. Increasing preclinical and clinical data indicate the contribution of gut microbiome on aging and aging-related diseases such as cardiovascular disease, Alzheimer Disease, and diabetes. Interventions on microbiota are developed including prebiotics, probiotics, and fecal microbial transplantation (FMT). FMT via oral …
Epigenetic Enhancement of Cognitive Training in Aging Mood Disorder Populations
The aim of this clinical trial is to investigate the effects of a three-week virtual reality-based cognitive remediation training (VR-CRT) programme in combination with daily intake of a histone deacetylase inhibitor (HDACi) sodium butyrate on cognition in symptomatically stable patients with mood disorders (depression or bipolar disorder). The investigators hypothesize …
