Evaluation of Cerogrin for Auricular Vagus Nerve Stimulation in Vascular Dementia or Vascular Mild Cognitive Impairment
This clinical trial evaluates the preliminary effectiveness and safety of Cerogrin, a medical device developed by Neurogrin Inc. for auricular vagus nerve stimulation, in patients with vascular dementia or vascular mild cognitive impairment. Given the limited availability of effective pharmacological treatments for these conditions, the study aims to assess whether …
Lifestyle Intervention in the Memory Clinics of General and Academic Hospitals Trial
Lifestyle Intervention in the memory clinics of General and academic Hospitals Trial (LIGHT) is a multi-center, randomized, controlled, lifestyle intervention trial among 300 older adults (≥50 years) with subjective cognitive decline (SCD) and mild cognitive impairment (MCI) at risk of dementia. Participants are randomized in a 1:1 ratio to Group …
VR Pupillometry in Cognitive Impairment
With disease-modifying therapies emerging for dementia and related conditions, identifying cognitive decline as early as possible is increasingly important. This prospective, single-center, repeated-measures study evaluates whether VR-based eye-tracking pupillometry can provide a practical, non-invasive biomarker of cognitive impairment and its progression over time. Pupil responses are linked to brain arousal …
Addressing Emotional Distress in Dyads of Persons With a Young Onset Dementia (YOD) and Their Care-partners
The purpose of the present investigation is to test the efficacy of a virtual, brief (6 sessions) dyadic (patient and care-partner together) intervention to prevent chronic emotional distress in dyads where one person is diagnosed with Young Onset Dementia (YOD). Through this study, we seek to address the unmet need …
Cognitive Model for Behavioral Interventions as a Non-pharmacological Intervention for Behavioral and Psychological Symptoms of Dementia
The goal of this study is to evaluate whether the Cognitive Model for Behavioral Interventions (CoMBI), a person-centered, non-pharmacological intervention, can reduce behavioral and psychological symptoms of dementia (BPSD) in people with dementia living in nursing homes. The study also aims to examine whether CoMBI can reduce caregiver burden and …
Oriental Intervention for Enhanced Neurocognitive Health (ORIENT) Diet in Patients With Intracranial / Carotid Stenosis
To test the effects of 6 month additional intervention of ORIENT diet versus usual medical treatment for Intracranial / Carotid Stenosis on cognitive decline, multi-mode MRI image markers and serum and fecal biomarkers in a randomized controlled trial of 120 patients with intracranial / carotid stenosis, who are aged older …
Protocolized Receptive Music Intervention to Reduce Care Refusal in Nursing Home Residents With Major Neurocognitive Disorders
The goal of this randomized study is to find out whether using a structured, protocolized music program (MUSIC CARE©) during daily hygiene care can reduce care refusal in older adults with dementia (memory and thinking conditions) who live in nursing homes (EHPADs). What is "care refusal"? Care refusal (also called …
Personalized Repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (rTMS) in Cognitive Fluctuations of Dementia With Lewy Bodies (DLB): Proof of Concept
The present study is a monocentric, therapeutic clinical trial involving forty patients diagnosed with Dementia with Lewy Bodies (DLB). The aim of this clinical trial is to evaluate the feasibility and relevance of repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS); a non-invasive neuromodulation technique, with a main emphasis on the evaluation of …
Single-center Prospective Longitudinal Study of Taste in Patients With Cognitive Disorders at Different Stages of Severity (Isolated Cognitive Complaint, Minor or Major Neurocognitive Alzheimer-type Disorders) by Analysis of Gustatory Evoked Potentials
The aim of the MAPEG 2 study is to explore gustatory function and to follow its evolution in the 4 following groups of participants: Healthy subjects Participants with isolated cognitive complaint Participants with minor neurocognitive disorder Participants with mild and moderate Alzheimer-type major neurocognitive disorders For this purpose, we want …
