[18F]-MFBG Versus [123I]-MIBG and [18F]-PE2I in PD vs. MSA and DLB vs. AD
Study goal: The goal of this prospective head to head comparison is to evaluate the effectiveness of [18F]-MFBG PET in assessing cardiac innervation, comparing it with [123I]-MIBG SPECT The study's primary focus is on distinguishing between Parkinson's disease (PD) and multiple system atrophy (MSA), as well as between dementia with …
Exergaming Revolution in Dementia
This pilot randomized controlled trial evaluates the effect of a 12 weeks exergaming training in people with major neurocognitive disorders (MNCD) living in long-term care facilities.
OCT-Angiography and Adaptive Optics in Patients With Memory Impairment
Studies suggest an association between retinal abnormalities and NCD (Neuro Cognitive Disorders) whether they are linked to proven or prodromal Alzheimer's disease (aMCI : amnestic mild cognitive impairment), or to other neurodegenerative diseases such as frontotemporal dementia or Lewy body diseases. These retinal anomalies objectified by OCT-A (Optical coherence tomography …
Psilocybin for Depression in People With Mild Cognitive Impairment or Early Alzheimer's Disease
This open-label pilot study examines whether the hallucinogenic drug, psilocybin, given under supportive conditions, is safe and effective for depression in people with Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI) or early Alzheimer's Disease (AD). This study will also assess whether psilocybin may improve quality of life in those individuals.
Early Age-Related Hearing Loss Investigation (EARHLI)
Early Age-Related Hearing Loss Investigation (EARHLI) is a single site study that will randomize late middle age adults to either a hearing intervention (including hearing aids) or a health education intervention. Participants will be followed for 1 year. This study will provide information on reducing cognitive decline in those at …
Trial of CORT108297 to Attenuate the Effects of Acute Stress in the Allocortex (CORT-X)
CORT-X will examine if mitigation of stress-mediated pathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a feasible target for intervention in individuals at risk for this disease. This single-site (Baltimore, Maryland) phase II clinical trial is a 2-week, randomized, placebo-controlled crossover study of the effects of the selective glucocorticoid receptor antagonist, CORT108297, …
The Peripheral Blood Multi-Omics Study on Sleep Loss
Sleep plays a role in cognitive processes such as memory processing, attention processing, and overall cognitive function. In recent years, the bidirectional relationship between sleep loss and aging, as well as related neurodegenerative diseases, has garnered widespread attention. Sleep disorders are a typical clinical manifestation of neurodegenerative diseases such as …
HEARS-NPS: Addressing Hearing Loss as a Common Unmet Contributor of Neuropsychiatric Symptoms
This randomized controlled trial study aims to evaluate a revised hearing care intervention for older adults with Alzheimer's Disease and Related Dementias (ADRD). The community-delivered hearing care intervention utilizes tailored strategies to assess impact on communication, neuropsychiatric symptoms (NPS), and care partner distress.
New Imaging Biomarkers Predictive of MA Progression
The pathophysiology of AD is complex. In addition to amyloid plaques and neurofibrillary degeneration, there is a metabolic alteration of the energy pathways, oxidative phosphorylation and glycolysis, which are involved in brain function. Several authors have shown a series of early metabolic dysregulations via an increase in phosphorylation at the …
Effects of Real vs. Soundless Acoustic Stimulation During Deep Sleep on Brain Activity, Memory, and Blood Biomarkers in Older Adults (60-85) With Mild Memory Impairment
This study aims to explore a non-invasive way to improve memory and slow cognitive decline in older adults by enhancing sleep quality. Dementia, a leading cause of death worldwide, is often associated with disturbed sleep, particularly the loss of deep, slow-wave sleep (SWS). SWS is important for memory and clearing …
