Restless Leg Syndrome: Is There a Response to Buddhist Walking Meditation in Hemodialysis
the restless leg syndrome is a common complaint in person who undergo hemodialysis. Buddhist walking meditation efficacy was not investigated in those population
CIMR Neuromuscular Research Biobank
The purpose of this research repository is to collect, store, and share with other researchers any tissues that subjects with all types of neuromuscular disease are willing to donate. These samples will be stored at Virginia Commonwealth University (VCU) and will be used for future research with this population.
Acute Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation in Patients With Systemic Autoimmune Myopathies
Systemic autoimmune myopathies are a heterogeneous group of rheumatic diseases that primarily affect the skeletal muscles. The transcranial direct current stimulation technique has been frequent, for example, in patients with ischemic stroke or for the optimization of muscular performance in athletes. However, to date, there are no studies evaluating this …
Cardiac Assessment for Recurrent Stroke Risk Evaluation in Atrial Fibrillation
Background Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common cardiac arrhythmia, affecting up to 10% of the elderly. Ischemic stroke is the main complication of AF and cardioembolism is one of the leading causes of ischemic stroke, accounting for approximately one third of cases. Oral anticoagulant therapy (OAC) is a cornerstone …
The Effect of Psychoeducational Diagnosis Communication on Perception of Illness, Satisfaction, and Behavioral Intentions Among Patients With Functional Neurological Movement Disorders
Functional neurological movement disorders are common conditions that can lead to significant limitations in daily life. They result from a functional disorder in the brain. A clear, understandable, and empathetic explanation of the diagnosis is a crucial first step in treatment. The purpose of this clinical study is to investigate …
Probiotics in Mild Alzheimer's Disease
The main objective is to investigate whether administration of probiotics to patients with mild Alzheimer's Disease (AD) reduces neuroinflammation, improves cognitive function and modifies neurophysiological measures, compared to a patient group that receives placebo (no active probiotics).
Tau PET/CT in Various Tau-Related Disease Patients
To evaluate the potential usefulness of 18F-S16/T807 positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) for the diagnosis of primary and metastatic lesions in various Tau-related disease patients.
Long-term Brain Stimulation of the Motor Ventral Thalamus (VOP/VIM) to Improve Motor Function
This study aims to recruit patients already implanted with Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) for movement disorders to complete tasks assessing parameters of motor output, speech, and swallowing functions, both with and without stimulation. DBS parameters would be adjusted prior to motor testing. Patients would then participate in multiple sessions performing …
Sympathetic Nerve Activity Predictors in Patients With Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease
The project will be pursued in our respiratory, autonomic nervous system physiology laboratory (Respiratory, autonomic nervous system physiology laboratory, Department of Pneumology and Intensive Care Medicine, RWTH Aachen University Hospital; Head of Department: Professor Michael Dreher). Overactivity of the sympathetic nerve activity (SNA) axis with "centrally" increased heart rate and …
Autonomic Reactivity and Personalized Neurostimulation
Disorders of gut-brain interaction (DGBI) affect up to 25% of U.S. children. Patients often suffer from disabling, multisystem comorbidities that suggest a common root (sleep disturbances, fatigue, anxiety, etc). Yet, DGBI are defined and treated based on GI symptom origin (cyclic vomiting, dyspepsia, irritable bowel) rather than underlying pathophysiology. Many …
