Neuromodulation for Schizophrenia
Our proposed study employs a novel approach to determine the clinical and functional imaging effects of brainstem neuromodulation, with an investigational study device, on illness awareness in schizophrenia - a significant contributor to medication non-adherence and poor treatment outcomes, and arguably the most treatment resistant manifestation of the disorder. The …
Investigating if a Stronger tDCS Intensity is More Effective for Improving Naming Ability in People Living With Alzheimer's Disease
There is currently little symptomatic therapy for Alzheimer's Disease (AD) and nothing effective for individuals with Frontotemporal dementia (FTD). However, neuromodulation with transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) has the potential to be a clinically effective therapy for both AD and FTD. The challenge now is to specify the parameters and …

Population Size and Eligible Patients: The investigators aim to recruit 5 to 10 patients with tremors who have previously undergone Ventral Intermedius Deep Brain Stimulation (VIM-DBS) treatment but have experienced early or late loss of benefits. Additionally, the investigators will enroll ten patients with essential tremor who require VIM-DBS surgery. …
Dose Efficacy in Adhesive Capsulitis
The purpose of this study is to find out if the treatment of adhesive capsulitis with 40 mg of methylprednisolone in combination with a hydrodilatation is comparable to 80 mg of methylprednisolone for pain reduction, improving shoulder mobility, and reducing side effects. Researchers will enroll 40 people in this study …
Respiratory Outbreak Mitigation in Long-Term Care Using Point-of-Care Testing
Outbreaks of seasonal respiratory viruses can spread rapidly in long-term care homes. Timely results for diagnostic tests remains a challenge for respiratory viruses due to the logistics of using a reference laboratory with delays leading to missed opportunities to implement virus-specific control measures to interrupt transmission resulting in larger outbreaks. …
Maitake for Integrative Cancer Care
Maitake is an edible mushroom that is used for both its nutritional and medicinal properties. Human and animal studies have shown Maitake may help improve immune function; however, its effectiveness in people with cancer is not clear. The investigators aim to measure if Maitake has any immunomodulatory effects when given …
