Investigating the Neural Mechanisms of Repetitive Brain Stimulation With Invasive and Noninvasive Electrophysiology in Humans
Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) is an effective treatment for depression, but clinical outcome is suboptimal, partially because investigators are missing biologically-grounded brain markers which show that TMS is modifying activity at the intended target in the brain. The goal of this proposal is to characterize the key markers of the …
Phenotypic Exploration During Sensory Stimulation in an Acoustic Chamber
An observational behavioural and neurophysiological study of the effects of controlled sensory stimulation (such as music, for example) on brain function
Intracranial Investigation of Neural Circuity Underlying Human Mood
Depression is one of the most common disorders of mental health, affecting 7-8% of the population and causing tremendous disability to afflicted individuals and economic burden to society. In order to optimize existing treatments and develop improved ones, the investigators need a deeper understanding of the mechanistic basis of this …
Prediction of Anxiety and Memory State
The purpose of this study is to look at how signals in the brain, body, and behavior relate to anxiety and memory function. This project seeks to develop the CAMERA (Context-Aware Multimodal Ecological Research and Assessment) platform, a state-of-the-art open multimodal hardware/software system for measuring human brain-behavior relationships. The R61 …
Effect of Vagal Nerve Stimulation on Gastric Motor Functions
The specific aim of this study is to compare simultaneous assessment of gastric emptying and gastric accommodation in response to a caloric meal In patients who have previously undergone activation of left cervical VNS for the treatment of medication-resistant depression. Our hypothesis is that cervical VNS increases gastric accommodation and …
A Long-term Study of the Safety and Effectiveness of RAP-219 in Adults With Focal Onset Seizures
This is a clinical research study for an investigational drug called RAP-219 in patients with Refractory Focal Epilepsy. This study is being conducted to determine RAP-219 Long- term safety and open-label antiseizure activity in patients with Refractory Focal Epilepsy.
Managing Agitated Delirium With Neuroleptics and Anti-Epileptics as a Neuroleptic Sparing Strategy
To examine the effects of haloperidol, chlorpromazine, valproic acid and placebo, in conjunction with standardized non-pharmacologic interventions, in the first line treatment of agitated delirium in hospitalized patients with cancer. This double-blind, randomized clinical trial aims to provide evidence on various therapeutic options for palliating delirium, thereby reducing delirium-related distress …
Quantitative Susceptibility Biomarker and Brain Structural Property for Cerebral Cavernous Malformation Related Epilepsy
Cerebral cavernous malformation (CCM)-related epilepsy (CRE) impairs the quality of life in patients with CCM. Patients could not always achieve seizure freedom after surgical resection of the lesion, suggesting an inadequate treatment and evaluation of the epileptogenic zone or network. Iron deposition in cerebral cavernous malformations has been postulated to …
Stopping TSC Onset and Progression 2B: Sirolimus TSC Epilepsy Prevention Study
This trial is a Phase II randomized, double-blind, placebo controlled multi-site study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of early sirolimus to prevent or delay seizure onset in TSC infants. This study is supported by research funding from the Office of Orphan Products Division (OOPD) of the US Food and …
Predisposing Factors for Post-stroke Epilepsy
The goal of this observational study is to learn about epilepsy after a stroke (post-stroke epilepsy). The main questions it aims to answer are: What make some patients develop epilepsy after a stroke? Does sleep have an impact on the development of post-stroke epilepsy? Participants will undergo: Electroencephalography (EEG) Magnetic …
