Rationale: Deep brain stimulation (DBS) of the thalamus is an effective surgical treatment for patients with disabling essential tremor, despite optimal pharmacological treatment. To date, the standard DBS procedure is performed under local anesthesia which is very burdensome for patients. It is now possible to directly visualize the target (motor) …
The specific study aims will be: To design and develop the hardware and software of the VR+MT and MR+MT systems. To test the feasibility of the VR+MT and MR+MT systems from the patients and to collect the feedback of users with respect to their experiences. To examine the treatment effects …
Background Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis type 4 (ALS4) is an inherited motor neuron disease. People with ALS4 have a change in the amount of RNA and DNA that bind together. This binding of RNA with DNA forms units called R-loops. Researchers want to learn how R-loops are related to ALS4. To …
This is an observational study to compare the utility of the novel aMRI approach in human brain to the standard of care imaging approach for diagnosing and assessing glioma. Tumor cells have altered metabolism compared to normal cells.This makes metabolic activity imaging useful for diagnosing and assessing neurological disease. However, …
The purpose of this study is to see if combining silevertinib with temozolomide after surgery and radiotherapy helps treat newly diagnosed glioblastoma (GBM) better than using temozolomide alone in the maintenance setting. Specifically, this study is being done to find answers to the following questions: How much of the study …
This feasibility study investigates the potential of hypnosis as a complementary therapy to improve attentional deficits and fatigue in patients with neurological diseases such as stroke, traumatic brain injury (TBI), and multiple sclerosis (MS). These patients often experience reduced spontaneous visual exploration and impaired functional independence despite current rehabilitation methods. …
The investigators are conducting an observational trial examining young women over the course of 28 days in which we are monitoring movement, sleep, heart rate, oxygen saturation, gut physiology, light, and menstrual cycle. The inter- and independence of the cyclicity of these variables with each other, the circadian cycle, the …
The goal of this clinical trial is to understand how easy or difficult it is for critically ill children (4-17 years old) to have light therapy while in the pediatric ICU. Participants will have a light meter at their bedside to measure light levels. Each morning, a light box will …
Introduction: The skull base tumors surgery remains a challenge since numerous cranial nerves or vessels closely surround them. Recently, diffusion tensor imaging has developed with the tractography following white fibers and visualizing functional tracts. Cranial nerves tractography could allow predicting their displacement by skull base tumors that may help the …
Optic nerve sheath diameter (ONSD) had been proved to be associated with increased intracranial pressure and can be used as one of the prognostic factors in cardiac arrest patients. It is simple, quick and can be measured repeatedly. Carotid duplex and transcranial duplex(TCD) provide rapid, noninvasive, real-time measures of cerebrovascular …
