Frontal iTBS for Impulsivity and Suicidal Ideation in Veterans With Mild Traumatic Brain Injury
The investigators hope to develop a treatment for suicidal ideation (SI), impulsivity and functional impairments (such as difficulties in social and work settings) that occur after a mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI). These conditions have been shown to be linked. The investigators are using a high-powered magnetic pulse, called intermittent …
Pragmatic Assessment and Treatment for the Health System
The project goal is to promote a feasible and effective approach to communicative disorders in neurological and psychiatric populations, focused on the pragmatics of language. Pragmatics allows speakers to use and interpret language in context and to engage in successful communication. Pragmatic language disorder is widespread in clinical conditions and …
Brain Research Assessing Impacts of Neurophysiological Processing Speed Training in Veterans
Older veterans with a history of mild brain trauma exhibit early cognitive challenges, especially in driving-related tasks. This is attributed to alterations in the brain's excitatory/inhibitory (E/I) balance. This pilot project investigates this phenomenon by leveraging electroencephalography (EEG) to measure parietal lobe alpha rhythms during visual attention tasks. The hypothesis …
Growth Hormone Replacement Therapy in Veterans With Mild Traumatic Brain Injury (mTBI) and Adult Growth Hormone Deficiency (AGHD)
The purpose of this study is to determine whether growth hormone replacement therapy (GHRT) is effective versus placebo in the improvement of Quality of Life in patients with adult growth hormone deficiency (AGHD) and mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI).
Brain Health & Wellness Classes for Veterans With Traumatic Brain Injury
This study is testing the usefulness of two types of Brain Health & Wellness classes for Veterans with a history of concussion to improve mental health.
Multimodal, Enriched Environment for Rehabilitation in Chronic Traumatic Brain Injury
The goal of this study is to learn if a enhanced environment (Metro Café) with multi model approach (an approach that combines several therapies) in chronic traumatic brain injury improves outcomes of recovery better than traditional therapy. The main questions it aims to answer are: Determine the amount of therapy …
Objectively Diagnose and Monitor Treatment of Light Sensitivity
The purpose of this project is to provide a new framework for diagnosing and monitoring treatment of light sensitivity and headache by objective measurement of facial features, pupil responses, retinal electrical responses and autonomic nerve responses to light.
Improving Sleep in Veterans With the Polytrauma Clinical Triad
The "polytrauma clinical triad" (PCT), a highly disabling constellation of factors, is defined by the coexistence of traumatic brain injury, post-traumatic stress disorder, and chronic pain. Veterans with the PCT are medically complex, often refractory to conventional therapies, and suffer from additional related chronic sequela. Notably, sleep disturbances and cognitive …
Development Of a Virtual Stress Inoculation Training (SIT) Platform and Mobile Health App
The purpose of this study is to demonstrate the feasibility and utility of SIT delivered asynchronously (self-paced) via fully virtual platform with and without the aid of a mobile health application and to determine initial change over baseline in terms of reduction in PTSD symptoms and improvement in resiliency in …
Pilot Study of Neurofeedback for Photosensitivity in Mild Traumatic Brain Injury
The goal of this study is to complete a pilot study testing the feasibility and acceptability of low-intensity pulse-based transcranial stimulation (LIP-tES) neurofeedback intervention for reducing photosensitivity symptoms in Veterans with a history of mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI). The study will also complete resting-state MRI scans to assess neurophysiological …
