Microelectrode Recordings From the Vagus Nerve in Awake Humans
This Anchillary project uses a refined technique of ultrasound-guided microneurography of the human cervical vagus nerve, an approach developed by Professor Vaughan Macefield and used safely to-date in 44 prior study participants. The overall goal of this project is to build upon prior data obtained using this approach by undertaking …
Allogenic Adipose-derived Mesenchymal Stem Cells(AMSCs) for Epilepsy During Deep Brain Stimulation(DBS) Surgery
This study is a non-randomized, open label, phase 1 clinical trial to evaluate the fesibility and safety of intrathalamic delivery of MSCs during standard of care DBS surgery for epilepsy. Subjects will be screened at our outpatient clinic and interested qualified subjects will be consented and offered participation in this …
Subcutaneous Intersectional Short Pulse Stimulation in Epileptic Patients
A subgaleal electrode-based system combined with the novel intersectional short-pulse (ISP) stimulation was developed to enable non-invasive, high-intensity neuromodulation. ISP consists of ultra-brief, distributed pulses to maximize electric field strength in target areas while minimizing adverse effects on non-target tissues. Early preclinical studies demonstrate its efficacy in disrupting pathological oscillations …
Self-management Intervention for Reducing Epilepsy Burden Among Ugandans With Epilepsy.
The goal of this clinical trial is to assess the efficacy of self management intervention for reducing epilepsy burden among Ugandans with epilepsy (SMART- U) vs. enhanced treatment as usual (eTAU) via an RCT in adults with epilepsy. The main question[s] it aims to answer are: What is the efficacy …
The Safety and Efficacy Evaluation of Everolimus as an Adjunctive Treatment for Focal Refractory Epilepsy
The aim of this study is to evaluate the clinical efficacy of everolimus as an adjunctive therapy for refractory epilepsy. The significance lies in addressing whether the mTOR inhibitor sirolimus has antiepileptic adjunctive effects for a broader range of patients with refractory epilepsy, with the hope of providing a new …
Contribution of Fast-ripples to the Improvement of the Neurosurgical Management of Drug-refractory Epilepsy
The main aim of this study is to evaluate the contribution of fast-ripples (FR) information on the neurosurgery management of patients with drug-refractory epilepsy investigated by Stereo-ElectroEncephaloGraphy (SEEG), as measured by freedom from disabling seizures one-year post-surgery. 220 patients (for whom 4-6 usual clinical macro-electrodes will be replaced by hybrid …
Effect of Vitamin D3 Supplementation on Cardiac Autonomic Nerve Function in Male Epileptic Patients With Hypovitaminosis D
The goal of this clinical trial is to see the effect of vitamin D3 supplementation on cardiac autonomic nerve function in male epileptic patients with hypovitaminosis D that weather vitamin D improves heart rate variability or not. The main questions it aims to answer are: Does vitamin D improves cardiac …
Effect of Rose Odor Exposure on Ictal Apnea
This study will investigate the potential benefits of rose scent in reducing the risk of Sudden Unexpected Death in Epilepsy (SUDEP) in patients with epilepsy. Participants will engage in their routine inpatient observational EEG monitoring for 24 hours followed by an additional 24 hours of observational EEG monitoring with continuous …
Genetic Diagnosis and Personalized Medicine for Patients With Epilepsy
Background Epilepsy is a common neurological disorder. It affects 50 million people worldwide and has the highest incidence in pediatric age. According to the latest classification of the ILAE (International League against Epilepsy), epilepsies are divided into lesional (symptomatic) and non-lesional/genetic forms. Symptomatic causes of epilepsy may include scarring, tumors, …
Evaluating Modulation Effects of Burst Stimulation Patterns Using SEEG
The study aims to evaluate modulation effects of burst stimulation patterns via SEEG.
