NYSCF Scientific Discovery Biobank
The New York Stem Cell Foundation (NYSCF) Research Institute is performing this research to accelerate diverse disease research using cells from the body (such as skin or blood cells) to make stem cells and other types of cells, conduct research on the samples, perform genetic testing, and store the samples …
Rare Disease Patient Registry & Natural History Study - Coordination of Rare Diseases at Sanford
CoRDS, or the Coordination of Rare Diseases at Sanford, is based at Sanford Research in Sioux Falls, South Dakota. It provides researchers with a centralized, international patient registry for all rare diseases. This program allows patients and researchers to connect as easily as possible to help advance treatments and cures …
MRI-changes in Morphometry and Cerebro Spinale Fluid (CSF) Flow in Spinal Cord Disorders
Understanding the onset and progression of spinal cord disorders is an important aim in clinical neurology. An early diagnosis with consequent therapy might prevent the progression of disability. Therefore, we aim to determine structural and dynamic changes in the microstructure of the spinal cord and CSF, and to explore the …
Establishing the Validity and Reliability of a Dexterity Assessment Tool
Every year, thousands of Canadians are diagnosed with degenerative cervical myelopathy (DCM), a form of non-traumatic injury caused by spinal cord compression in the neck. While DCM causes a range of symptoms, one of the most disabling is loss of hand dexterity. Surgical decompression is standard treatment for DCM, but …
Improving Spinal Cord Stimulation With ECAPS
The purpose of this study will be to investigate the optimization of spinal cord stimulation with ECAPs in patients with spinal cord implants.
Spinal Cord Monitoring in Multiple Sclerosis
Multiple sclerosis (MS) is the most common demyelinating disease of the central nervous system and the most common cause of non-traumatic neurological disability in young adults. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is the most important paraclinical investigation used in the diagnosis and monitoring of the disease. In the past years, spinal …
Effectiveness of the Collaborative Community Clinic for Persons With Spinal Cord Injury and Disease
The investigator is evaluating data stored on the Collaborative Community Clinic data repository (IRB #201811032). Researchers seek to evaluate the effectiveness of the Collaborative Community Clinic (CCC), an occupational therapy student experiential learning clinic for uninsured or under-insured people with spinal cord injury and disease (SCI/D), using participants' initial and …
Evaluation of New MRI Sequences Including 3D-FGAPSIR for the Optimization of Inflammatory Spinal Cord Lesions Research
verification of inclusion and non-inclusion criteria information and collection of consent standard imaging protocol prescribed as part of the usual treatment: sagittal T1 and T2 slices after injection of contrast product (Gadolinium), 3D STIR and 3D PSIR sequence. 3D FGAPSIR sequence at the level of the cervical cord for the …
Neuro-navigated TMS for Chronic SCI Patients
Can neuro-navigated Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation be used as an additional outcome measure to EM-SCI assessments in a Spinal cord injury trial? Compare EM-SCI assessment with nTMS in ten chronic thoracic SCI patients Compare EM-SCI assessment with nTMS in ten chronic cervical SCI patients
Male Fertility Program
Following spinal cord injury, most men are infertile and require medical assistance to father children. The conditions that contribute to their infertility are erectile dysfunction, ejaculatory dysfunction, and semen abnormalities. The Miami Project Male Fertility Program is a research study designed to understand and improve impairments to male fertility resulting …
