Use Muscadine Wine Nutraceuticals to Improve Brain Health, Cognition, and Mental Health
Previous studies have shown that polyphenol-rich foods can positively affect cognitive functions, memory, and mood in humans. We hypothesize that both acute and chronic intake of muscadine wine polyphenols will improve cognitive performance and mood through regulating the HPA axis, alleviating inflammation and oxidative stress, and/or inhibiting monoamine oxidase activities
Brain Health Fitness Program: Exercise for People with Mild-moderate Cognitive Impairments
The goal of this clinical trial is to test a 6-month, twice a week, moderate intensity exercise and coaching program (an in-person group and a distance group) for adults with mild-moderate cognitive impairments living in South Carolina. The main questions it aims to answer are: Is the program practical to …
Digital Solution for Salutogenic Brain Health (DiSaB): A Pilot Protocol for Clinical Implementation
The goal of this clinical trial is to develop and learn if a digitally delivered brain health intervention (DiSaB) can help improve cognitive, physical and psychosocial health in middle-aged adults with chronic conditions at-risk for cognitive decline. The clinical trial also aims to find out the push and pull factors …
Disease Modifying Potential of 5mg of Melatonin on Cognition and Brain Health in Aging
The study will examine whether 5mg melatonin (over the counter, OTC) over a 9-month period improves Alzheimer's disease (AD) biomarkers and cognitive function in two groups of individuals: those with mild cognitive impairment (MCI+) and those who are not (MCI-). AD biomarkers will be measured from cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) obtained …
Cognitive Strategies for Optimizing Brain Health And Managing Transgenerational Vascular Risk Factors Post-Stroke
People living with the cognitive effects of stroke are at risk for recurrent stroke and further cognitive decline. Also problematic is that stroke risk clusters in families and biological family members of people who have ischemic stroke may also be at increased risk of stroke and/or cognitive decline. The primary …
Investigating the Effects of Dietary Phospholipids on Measures of Human Brain Health and Psychological Wellbeing
The aim of this study is to investigate the effects of 6- and 12-week supplementation of a bioactive whey protein concentrate drink containing dairy phospholipids on cognitive function and mood in healthy young to middle aged adults. The proposed randomised, double blind, placebo-controlled, parallel groups design methodology will assess the …
Effects of Dance and Music Appreciation on Brain Health and Fitness in People at Risk for Alzheimer's Disease
The purpose of this research study is to study the effects of dance movement and music on memory and cardiorespiratory fitness in older adults who are concerned about memory loss. The study aims to determine the optimal number of movement or music appreciation classes a week to support brain health …
A Causal Role for Voltage-gated Cav1.2 Calcium Channels in Mediating 5G FR1 Effects on Sleep-associated Brain Health in Humans
Electromagnetic fields (EMFs) generated by the use of 5G technology influence certain sleep characteristics, especially in individuals carrying a specific genetic variant of a protein in the brain that regulates the activity of nerve cells. This protein is a voltage-gated calcium channel called CaV1.2 and could be involved in the …
The Effects of Night Shift Work on Health Across the Menstrual Cycle
The study aims to investigate the effects of sleep deprivation on women's health across different phases of the menstrual cycle.
Measuring Brain Health Using Low-Field Portable MRI
The purpose of this study is to develop a new grading scale and utilize automated segmentation for measurement of White Matter Hyperintensity (WMH) volume using a low field MRI.
