Family Interventions iN Dementia Mental Health Environments
Study Goal: Understand carers' needs when someone with dementia is in a mental health ward and develop strategies to support carers as partners in care. Research Questions: What are mental health wards like in terms of staff, patients, and current carer support? What do carers experience and need during admission, …
Impact of COVID-19 Vaccines on Cerebrovascular Health
Safe and effective severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) vaccines may reduce the transmission of and achieve population immunity against the COVID-19 pandemic, which accounted for more than 3.75million deaths worldwide. With World Health Organization's (WHO) effort on ensuring equitable access to COVID-19 vaccines, vaccination rate may increase in …
Arlington Longitudinal Optimal Healthy Aging Study (ALOHA)
The Arlington Longitudinal Optimal Healthy Aging (ALOHA) Study is a community-based research project led by the Marymount University Center for Optimal Aging (MCOA). The study is designed to help older adults in the Washington, D.C., Maryland, and Virginia (DMV) area maintain independence, mobility, wellbeing and brain health as they age. …
Multimodal Ophthalmic Imaging and Plasma Biomarkers for the Early Detection of Alzheimer's Disease
With the accelerating global aging population, dementia has become a pressing worldwide issue. This project aims to identify specific plasma biomarkers and ocular indicators for the early detection of Alzheimer's disease (AD).
Delirium Identification in Older Patients With Alzheimer's and Other Related Dementias In the Emergency Department
Delirium is highly prevalent and very bad for patients with dementia. Delirium is a dangerous medical condition that occurs in 6-38% of older Emergency Department patients and 70% of ICU patients. A person who develops delirium in the ED or hospital has a 12 times higher odds of being newly …
Early Detection of Alzheimer's Disease and Affective Disorders by Automated Voice and Speech Analysis (PLATA)
PLATA aims to develop an algorithm to identify vocal biomarkers of Alzheimer's dementia. Using data collected as part of routine care, speech patterns will be compared to known biomarkers of Alzheimer's disease, such as amyloid 1-42 and p-Tau in CSF (cerebrospinal fluid). If biomarkers of speech can be identified in …
The Clinical Study of Synaptic Plasticity-based Lencanumab for the Treatment of Early Alzheimer's Disease
Alzheimer's disease (AD) manifests itself in cognitive decline, impaired ability to perform daily life, and a variety of behavioral and psychiatric symptoms, seriously endangering the health of the elderly. The prevalence and disability rates of AD in China remain high, and the lack of effective treatment options has brought a …
The Immune Response to Stroke
Some patients develop cognitive decline after a stroke, but we don't always understand the mechanisms. It has been proposed that a proportion of the patients develop an autoimmune immune response, and that this could potentially explain the cognitive decline in some of the patients. The current study aims to investigate …
Vascular Cognitive Decline and Dementia
The ENIGMA study is a single-centre prospective clinical observational study with the aim to investigate vascular contributions to cognitive decline and dementia. By studying MRI-defined capillary dysfunction and EV profiles, the ENIGMA study links novel imaging and basic research techniques to a clinical cohort of stroke patients. With this study …
Study of Skin Microbiome in AD and PS Patients
Everybody's skin has bacteria that normally lives on it. Previous research has shown that people with eczema (or atopic dermatitis [AD]) have much higher concentrations of a certain bacteria (S. aureus), especially when their disease is active but little is known about the role that this bacteria plays in psoriasis …
