Reducing African Americans' Alzheimer's Disease Risk Through Exercise (RAATE)"
The RAATE proposal is designed to determine the effects of physical activity on risk factors for Alzheimer's Disease in older African American adults. The study will compare a physical activity program to an active control group. There are three main objectives of the protocol: to determine if a physical activity …
A Study to Assess THN391 in Subjects With Alzheimer's Disease
This is a Phase 1b study to evaluate different doses of the drug and see whether a drug is safe and how it behaves in the body. THN391 has already been assessed in healthy people without Alzheimer's disease. This is the first study of THN391 in patients with Early Alzheimer's …
The Wandering Nerve: Gateway to Boost Alzheimer's Disease Related Cognitive Performance
In this research study the investigators want to find out if a non-invasive electrical brain stimulation method called RAVANS (also called tVNS) can have a beneficial effect on cognition in older individuals. The investigators also want to understand whether certain individual factors contribute to the effect of RAVANS on cognition. …
A Dyadic Sleep Health Approach for Persons With Alzheimer's Disease and Caregivers
This is a randomized controlled trial over 5 years, using Stage II of the NIH-defined stage model for behavioral intervention development. We will evaluate the efficacy of the sleep intervention program (Care2Sleep) on sleep, health status measures, and quality of life (for dyads), and inflammation (for caregivers only). Eligible participants …
Biomarkers of Sleep-wake Cycle in Prodromal Alzheimer's Disease: Role in Cognitive Decline?
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is characterised by a progressive loss of memory and cognitive function. In the early stages of AD, there is a progressive accumulation of molecules: β-amyloid peptides (Aβ) in the brain. There is a link between the accumulation of Aβ peptides and the deterioration of sleep, but current …
MIMA Pilot Study: MIcrostructure of the Medial Temporal Lobe in Early Alzheimer's Disease
Patients with Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI) or Subjective Cognitive Decline (SCD) may or may not develop Alzheimer's disease (AD) dementia. Yet identifying patients at risk is crucial: delaying the onset of the disease by 5 years could reduce prevalence by 50%. To achieve this, we need affordable biomarkers combined with …
REducing the Risk of COgnitive DEcline ad Dementia in Patients With Subjective Cognitive Decline Through an Immersive Virtual Reality and Telemedicine-based Multi-component Intervention: the SCD-ReCODED Study
Older adults with subjective cognitive decline (SCD) are at high risk of developing dementia and frequently experience subclinical symptoms (e.g., anxiety, depression) which are themselves associated with dementia and cognitive decline risk. To date, the lack of effective disease-modifying treatments, along with the reliable identification of modifiable lifestyle risk factors …
Dementia Family Caregiver Study
The proposed study will test a 3-month, community health worker (CHW) delivered home visit, culturally and language-appropriate intervention for ethnic and underserved dementia family caregivers of persons with dementia (PWD) using wearable technology for real time monitoring of caregivers' stress and sleep. The CHW delivered home visit intervention includes stress …
Personalized Obstructive Sleep Apnea Treatment and Effects on Alzheimer's Disease Biomarkers and Cognition Among Blacks
The purpose of this research is to see how effective the Personalized obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) Treatment Adherence Model called PRAISE is in helping the patient stick to the physician recommended OSA treatment plan Positive Airway Pressure (PAP).
Reducing African American's Alzheimer's Risk Through Exercise-Mild Cognitive Impairment (RAATE-MCI)
The RAATE-MCI proposal is designed to determine the effects of physical activity on risk factors for Alzheimer's Disease in older African American adults. The study will compare a physical activity program to an active control group. RAATE-MCI is a 52-week randomized controlled trial. 144 African American adults aged 60 and …
