Balance, Autonomic Response, and Sensory Modulation to Dosage of Mechanical Vagal Stimulation in Healthy Adults
The vagus nerve (VN) plays a crucial role in regulating vital functions (heart rate, blood pressure, digestion, and immune response) and maintaining communication between internal organs and the brain. Recent studies have highlighted the therapeutic potential of VN stimulation (VNS) in treating various conditions such as drug-resistant epilepsy, postural control …
POTS-FLOW: Interplay Between Gut Hormones and Autonomic Postprandial Blood Flow Regulation in Patients With POTS
This study will describe the interplay between the gut hormones GIP and CCK and their regulation of blood flow to the large vessels in patients with Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome (POTS) and GIP, CCK and GLP-1 in healthy. This is addressed by hormone infusions during MR-scans of the abdomen and …
Use of Accelerometer for Quantification of Neurogenic Orthostatic Hypotension Symptoms
The objective of this study is to find a more objective and accurate way to assess the efficacy of the treatment for neurogenic orthostatic hypotension. For this purpose, the investigators will use an activity monitor to determine the amount of time patients spend in the upright position (standing and walking; …
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 …
Metabolic Flexibility and Autonomic Control After Muscle Power vs Metabolic Power Training in Postmenopausal Oncological Women: the POWER Health Study
POWER Health is a randomized clinical trial with a two-arm parallel design whose objectives are 1) to study metabolic flexibility and autonomic function (both capacities that describe cardiovascular health) in a sample of postmenopausal oncological women vs postmenopausal untreated controls (CT); and 2) to analyze the impact of two different …
Effect of Vitamin D3 Supplementation on Cardiac Autonomic Nerve Function in Male Parkinson's Disease 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 Parkinson's disease patients with hypovitaminosis D Main questions it aims to answer are: Does vitamin D improves heart rate variability(HRV) in male Parkinson's disease patients ? Does vitamin …
Automated Abdominal Binder for Orthostatic Hypotension
The automated inflatable abdominal binder is an investigational device for the treatment of orthostatic hypotension (low blood pressure on standing) in patients with autonomic failure. The purpose of this study is to determine safety and effectiveness of the automated abdominal binder in improving orthostatic tolerance in these patients.
Interrogating the Pathophysiological Mechanisms of Constipation in Patients With Systemic Sclerosis
The purpose of this study is to determine whether transcutaneous electrical acustimulation (TEA) alters systemic sclerosis (SSc)-related colonic and anorectal physiology by enhancing autonomic nervous system (ANS) function. The study will examine the effects of TEA on slow colonic transit (SCT) and rectal hyposensitivity (RH), to examine whether TEA improves …
CPAP for the Treatment of Supine Hypertension
This study aims to learn about the effects of continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) on people with autonomic failure and high blood pressure when lying down (supine hypertension) to determine if it can be used to treat their high blood pressure during the night. CPAP (a widely used treatment for …
Recovery of Bladder and Sexual Function After Human Spinal Cord Injury
This study will incorporate critical cross viscero-visceral intersystem interactions to 1) investigate in a controlled laboratory setting and then with mobile at-home monitoring the extent, severity, and frequency of occurrence of autonomic dysreflexia with respect to daily bladder and bowel function, in conjunction with identifying potential underlying mechanisms by examining …
