Neuromodulation Effect of Focused Ultrasound for Motor Recovery in Patients With Stroke
Transcranial focused ultrasound (tFUS) can be used as a non-invasive brain neuromodulation technique. Low-intensity focused ultrasound has been demonstrated to be safe and have neuromodulatory effects on the cerebral cortex in healthy human and animal experiments.This study aims to investigate the effect of tFUS on cortical excitability for motor recovery …
Food Orders on Blood Glucose and Fuel Use At Rest
Consuming a carbohydrate-rich food as the final food in a meal, as compared to the first food in a meal, has been shown to reduce blood glucose levels after eating in both diabetes patients and in healthy controls. However, gaps remain in the literature in this area of research, and …
Effects of Hypoxic Breathwork
This project will study changes that occur during a short period of intensive daily slow-paced breathing and breath hold practice (i.e., "breathwork"). On the first and last days of the week-long practice, investigators will conduct high-density EEG recordings during breathwork to evaluate spectral power, coherence, and causality dynamics of the …
Personalized Treatment of Refractory BPPV
Background: Benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV) is the most common cause of vertigo, often effectively treated with standard canalith repositioning maneuvers (CRMs). However, approximately 12.5% of cases remain refractory, leading to persistent symptoms and increased healthcare burden. Variations in the anatomical orientation of the semicircular canals (SCCs) may explain the …
Cardiac Performance Evaluation in Children With Steroid Dependent vs Steroid Resistant Nephrotic Syndrome
nephrotic syndrome (NS) is one of the most common pediatric kidney diseases There is an increased incidence of heart disease in patients with primary nephrotic syndrome (PNS) compared to the normal population Conventional Echocardiography is usually utilized to diagnose myocardial dysfunction. Tissue Doppler imaging is a non-invasive cardiac imaging technique …
Targeting Transdiagnostic Self-regulatory Factors and Eating Disorder Pathology Among Adults With BInge-spectrum Eating disOrders: A mHEALTH Interoceptive Exposure Intervention (the Bio-HEALTH Study)
The present study will be fully remote (virtual) and include observational design features (assessments) plus a clinical trial. All assessments will be completed using HIPAA-approved platforms (e.g., Qualtrics, MindLogger EMA platform). After screening via Qualtrics to determine eligibility (described below), participants will complete a cross-sectional survey via Qualtrics, followed by …
A Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled, Multicenter Study of the Efficacy and Safety of Qifangfeixian Granules in the Treatment of Connective Tissue Disease-Associated Interstitial Lung Disease (CTD-ILD)
Interstitial lung disease (ILD) is a heterogeneous group of diseases characterized by inflammation and/or fibrinization of the alveolar unit due to a variety of known or unknown causes. CTD-ILD is one of its common categories and includes any ILD with a definite diagnosis of connective tissue disease or with a …
Effect of High-Intensity Interval Training Exercise on Cognitive Function of Young Adults
To explore the sustainability of the acute effect of High Intensity Interval Training (HIIT) on executive function in young adults.
Influence of Cerebral Oedema in Intracerebral Haemorrhage
In 2020, IntraCerebral Haemorraghe (ICH) remains the most devastating type of stroke. Besides stroke unit care, no specific treatment has been proven effective yet. Perihaematomal oedema (PHO) could be a promising therapeutic target. However, the mechanisms, the natural history as well as the clinical impact of this PHO remain unclear. …
Effects of Remote Ischemic Preconditioning on Peripheral Blood Biomarkers in Healthy Adults (EMINENT)
The aim of this study is to investigate the effects of remote ischaemic preconditioning on the peripheral blood characteristics of healthy adults and to explore the possible mechanisms for improving ischaemia/reperfusion injury and its protective effects on the cardiovascular system.
