VIRGIL is a monocentric interventional study aiming to investigate the effect of immersion in a virtual tilted room on modulation of the verticality representation (postural vertical \[PV\] and visual vertical \[VV\]), which in turn might affect body orientation (head and trunk). To this end, the investigators will conduct a within-person …
Life expectancy has been increasing for the last 150 years, but the maintenance of health has not kept pace with increased lifespan, and on average, UK adults spend the last decade of life in poor-health, with major consequences for society and the individual.

Some types of meditation lead heart rate to become more steady as breathing quiets whereas others lead to large heart rate swings up and down (oscillations) as breathing becomes deeper and slower. The current study is designed to investigate how daily mindfulness practice with heart rate biofeedback during breathing in …
The aging population in Europe is leading to an increase in neurodegenerative diseases, such as Alzheimer's disease (AD), which is expected to affect 152 million people worldwide by 2050. In Italy, there are approximately 1.2 million cases of dementia, with 600,000 attributed to AD. Given the limited effectiveness of current …
The purpose of this study is to determine if intensive lowering of systolic blood pressure (SBP), using FDA approved medications (antihypertensive), reduces Alzheimer's Disease pathology (i.e., excessive brain amyloid and tau protein deposition) in older adults at high risk for memory decline or dementia.
This is a human clinical study involving the isolation of autologous bone marrow derived stem cells (BMSC) and transfer to the vascular system and inferior 1/3 of the nasal passages in order to determine if such a treatment will provide improvement in neurologic function for patients with certain neurologic conditions. …
The overall objective is to obtain an assessment of the pharmacokinetics of \[18F\]3F4AP in healthy volunteers and subjects with demyelinating diseases such as mild cognitive impairment (MCI), Alzheimer's Disease (AD), Multiple Sclerosis (MS), Spinal Cord Injury (SCI) and Spinal radiculopathy (SR).
Traditionally, general anesthesia is maintained with inhalational anesthesia (GAS), but there is a gap in knowledge regarding whether intravenous anesthesia (IV) can prevent deleterious postoperative outcomes in the geriatric surgical population. The goal of this clinical trial is to determine whether intravenous anesthesia (IV) leads to a decreased incidence of …
