Efficacy and Safety of Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation in Treatment of Alzheimer's Disease
This study is grounded in the regulatory mechanisms of the glymphatic system and applies repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) to the treatment of Alzheimer's disease (AD). The clinical efficacy and safety of rTMS will be systematically evaluated. Furthermore, transcranial magnetic stimulation-evoked potentials (TMS-EEG) and functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) will be …
Near-infrared Light Therapy Device for Mild-Moderate Alzheimer's Disease (NirsCure-03A)
This study is a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo (sham device)-controlled clinical trial. A total of 320 patients with mild to moderate Alzheimer's disease (AD) are planned to be enrolled. Central stratified block randomization will be applied, with stratification based on disease severity (mild vs. moderate) and PET subgroup participation status …
Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy for Prodromal Alzheimer´s Disease With Cerebrovascular Disease
Alzheimer´s disease is a devastating illness that effects the patients as well as their family members. Its prevalence increases exponentially and the burden on the healthcare system is enormous. AD neuropathology begins 15-20 years before the occurrence of cognitive symptoms, which ranges from preclinical stage to mild cognitive impairment (MCI) …
NiteCAPP: Web-based Interventions for Insomnia in Rural Dementia Caregivers
The goal of this project evaluate the efficacy of NiteCAPP in improving insomnia in a rural dementia caregiver sample (n of 100 caregiver and PWD dyads). We will measure both the short term (post-treatment) and long term (6 and 12 months) effects of the intervention on CG sleep, arousal, inflammation, …
Dementia Choirs for Social and Psychological Wellbeing
Loneliness is common in both persons living with dementia and their informal caregivers, and a factor negatively affecting disease progression, health and wellbeing. However, intervention studies to address loneliness show inconsistent effects. This study aims to evaluate effect of a community-based group intervention - music therapy informed dementia choirs - …
Caregivers Preparing for Their Own Health Care Emergency
The proposed research will develop and test an online Emergency Preparedness Toolkit to help caregivers prepare for their own unexpected health events. Caregivers of persons with dementia often ignore their own health needs as their primary focus is the care of the person with dementia. This can lead to a …
B-vitamins and Omega-3 Fatty Acids and Biomarkers of Brain Atrophy.
A poor nutrition status is a modifiable risk factor for cognitive decline and dementia. In particular, evidence links low status of certain B-vitamins and ω-3 fatty acids (ω-3 FA) with a greater risk of cognitive decline and dementia. Although these dietary components are typically investigated separately, post-hoc analyses of existing …
Pain With Dementia
The purpose of the study is to develop a caregiver-assisted pain coping skills training program for older adults who have pain and mild to moderate dementia and are living at home with a family caregiver. The investigators are planning to recruit 30 patient-caregiver dyads (60 individuals).
A Study to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of Co-administration of AD-227A and AD-227B
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of co-administration of AD-227A and AD-227B in patients with essential hypertension
Association of Transcranial Alternating Current Stimulation with Digital Cognitive Training for Cognitive Remediation in Older Adults
BACKGROUND Cognitive decline in older adults, especially those who develop Mild Cognitive Impairment and Alzheimer's Disease, currently has limited options of pharmacological treatments, with modest efficacy. Digital Cognitive Training (DCT) and Transcranial Alternating Current Stimulation (tACS) are two promising tools for cognitive remediation in this population. In this exploratory study, …
