Tennessee Alzheimer's Project
The primary objective of the Vanderbilt Alzheimer's Disease Research Center (VADRC) is to provide local and national researchers with access to a well-characterized and diverse clinical cohort, including participant referrals, biosamples, clinical data, and neuroimaging data. The VADRC Clinical Core will create an infrastructure to support research efforts of both …
Evaluating Novel Healthcare Approaches to Nurturing and Caring for Hospitalized Elders
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare the Hospital Elder Life Program (HELP) with a family-augmented version of HELP (FAM-HELP), that includes family members and care partners, for the prevention of delirium in older patients during hospital admission. The main objectives of the trial are the following: To …
Longitudinal Cognitive Assessment by BoCA
The Boston Cognitive Assessment (BoCA) is a self-administered online test intended for longitudinal cognitive monitoring. BoCA uses random not-repeating tasks to minimize learning effects. BoCA was developed to evaluate the effects of treatment in longitudinal clinical trials and available gratis to individuals and professionals.
The Swedish BioFINDER - Primary Care Study
The overall aim of the study is to improve the diagnostic accuracy of AD and cognitive impairment in primary care settings to ensure better care and treatment as well as facilitate correct referrals to specialized memory clinics. The investigators will strive to recruit diverse and representative populations of patients with …
The Swedish BioFINDER - Memory Clinic Study
The diagnosis of diseases causing memory difficulties or dementia is often challenging. Without the use of advanced methods such as cerebrospinal fluid tests, approximately 25-30% do not receive a correct diagnosis today. However, the investigators have recently developed new blood biomarkers with high diagnostic accuracy, and the investigators now want …
Optical Coherence Tomography in Neurological Practice: Utility and Applicability Across Neurological Diseases (OCt.IN.N)
OCt.IN.N is a national, monocentric, prospective, observational cohort study evaluating the utility and applicability of Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) in the diagnostic workup and longitudinal monitoring of neurological diseases. 840 patients with Central Nervous System neurological diseases (Multiple Sclerosis, Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, migraine/headache) and 210 age-matched healthy controls will …
Using the EHR to Advance Genomic Medicine Across a Diverse Health System
Given the expansion of indications for genetic testing and our understanding of conditions for which the results change medical management, it is imperative to consider novel ways to deliver care beyond the traditional genetic counseling visit, which are both amenable to large-scale implementation and sustainable. The investigators propose an entirely …
Cerebro Spinal Fluid Collection (CSF)
Cognitive neurodegenerative diseases are a major public health issue. At present, the diagnosis of certainty is still based on anatomopathological analyses. Even if the diagnostic tools available to clinicians have made it possible to improve probabilistic diagnosis during the patient's lifetime, there are still too many diagnostic errors and sub-diagnostic …
Blood And Tears in Alzheimer's Disease
This study aims to investigate whether biomarkers of Alzheimer's disease can be found in tearfluid, as well as dried bloodspots in patients with Alzheimer's disease, other dementia diagnoses compared to controls.
Alzheimer's Disease Treatment With Combination of 40Hz Light and Cognitive Therapy
Electrical activity in the brain known as "gamma" brainwaves help connect and process information throughout the brain. These gamma waves are diminished in Alzheimer's disease. New research in Alzheimer's disease mouse models shows that exposure to light flickering at the rate of 40 flashes per second or 40Hz increased gamma …
