Deciphering Preserved Autonomic Function After Multiple Sclerosis
This study looks to characterize gradients of dysfunction in the autonomic nervous system in patients with clinically diagnosed multiple sclerosis. The autonomic nervous system plays key roles in regulation of blood pressure, skin blood flow, and bladder health- all issues that individuals with multiple sclerosis typically suffer. Focusing on blood …
Effect of Ketamine on Intraoperative Motor Evoked Potentials
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn about the effect of ketamine on intraoperative motor evoked potentials in adult patients undergoing thoracolumbar spinal fusions. Participants will undergo a standard anesthetic. In addition to the standard anesthetic, the patients will be administered increasing doses of ketamine with motor-evoked potentials …
Non-invasive BCI-controlled Assistive Devices
Injuries affecting the central nervous system may disrupt the cortical pathways to muscles causing loss of motor control. Nevertheless, the brain still exhibits sensorimotor rhythms (SMRs) during movement intents or motor imagery (MI), which is the mental rehearsal of the kinesthetics of a movement without actually performing it. Brain-computer interfaces …
MUSic Therapy In Complex Specialist Neurorehabilitation
Aim: Investigate whether patients undergoing specialist rehabilitation after complex neurological injury show different functional outcomes if music therapy is included in their rehabilitation program compared to usual care. Background: Patients with complex needs following a brain, spinal cord, and/or peripheral nerve injury often require a period of specialist neurorehabilitation. This …
The Effect of a Muscle-mimicking, Fabric-type Shoulder Orthosis on Functional Movements of the Upper Limb in Patients With Neuromuscular Disorder
The goal of this clinical trial is to investigate the effect of a muscle-mimicking, fabric-type shoulder orthosis on functional movements of the upper limb in patients with neuromuscular disorder. The main questions it aims to answer are: What is the impact of the muscle-mimicking, fabric-type shoulder orthosis on upper limb …
Exploring the Utility of [18F]3F4AP for Demyelination Imaging
The overall objective is to obtain an assessment of the pharmacokinetics of [18F]3F4AP in healthy volunteers and subjects with demyelinating diseases such as mild cognitive impairment (MCI), Alzheimer's Disease (AD), Multiple Sclerosis (MS), Spinal Cord Injury (SCI) and Spinal radiculopathy (SR).
The Therapeutic Effect of Betaine in Syringomyelia
Purpose: This clinical trial aims to evaluate the indications, therapeutic effects and side effects of betaine in refractory syringomyelia. Primary outcome measure: The primary endpoint is the change of ASIA at week 12. The clinical efficacy is defined as ASIA increase ≥ 1 at week 12, as compared with that …
Subarachnoid-Subarachnoid (S-S) Bypass Versus Adhesion Lysis in Spinal Arachnoiditis and Syringomyelia
To determine whether Subarachnoid-Subarachnoid (S-S) Bypass results in better patient outcomes with fewer complications and improved quality of life compared to intradural adhesion lysis in individuals with Spinal Arachnoiditis and Syringomyelia.
ECoG BMI for Motor and Speech Control
Test the feasibility of using electrocorticography (ECoG) signals to control complex devices for motor and speech control in adults severely affected by neurological disorders.
Separation Surgery Followed by Stereotactic Ablative Body Radiotherapy (SABR) Versus SABR Alone for Spinal Metastases
This is a non-inferiority, randomised controlled trial to investigate the effect of stereotactic ablative body radiotherapy (SABR) compared to separation surgery followed by SABR in ambulatory patients with malignant epidural spinal cord compression (MESCC). The primary objective of the project is investigating the effect of SABR compared to separation surgery …
