Filter by:This study evaluates how aspirin, clopidogrel and ticagrelor work in people with chronic kidney disease (CKD) compared to people with normal kidneys. In the first part of the study, half of CKD participants will be randomly assigned to ticagrelor and aspirin, while the other half will be assigned to clopidogrel and aspirin in a blinded fashion. The treatment duration will be two weeks. After recruiting CKD participants the investigator will recruit controls with normal kidney function that will receive only ticagrelor and aspirin for two weeks.
The study is designed to explore the efficacy and safety of head-down position in patients with acute ischemic stroke。
A study of stereotactic, intracerebral injection of CTX0E03 neural stem cells into patients with moderate to moderately severe disability as a result of an ischemic stroke.
NBO is a nonpharmacological measure of neuroprotection. The purpose of our study is to evaluate the safety and efficiency of NBO（Normobaric hyperoxia) in the acute ischemic stroke patients who received endovascular treatment. Looking for more clinical evidence for the ischemic stroke patients who will be treated with NBO in the future.
The primary goal of the PRAISE study is to develop a diagnostic algorithm that allows the prediction of acute coronary syndrome in stroke patients with elevated levels of cardiac troponin.
The primary outcome of this study is to determine the quantitative increase in connectivity, as measured by fMRI brain and calculated as a percent increase from baseline in patients with ischemic stroke. Eligible patients will receive a listening session of music or spoken word listening, 30 days to 5 years following ischemic stroke. Assessments will include modified Rankin Scale, National Institute of Health Stroke Scale, functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging, motor function tests, and neuropsychological evaluations. Assessments occur at baseline, day 45, and day 90 after starting listening sessions.
Early term rehabilitation initiated after stroke should be based on motor learning principles and neural plasticity. To achieve motor learning and neural plasticity, exercises consisting of intense and repetitive training should be given according to the patients' functional level. The neurodevelopmental treatment-Bobath (NDT_B) approach is based on motor learning principles. In literature, studies that show the early term effects of NDT-B on functional recovery are inadequate. The aim of this study was to investigate the effects NDT-B applied in the early term of stroke, on postural control, functional movement, balance and activities of daily living.
The primary aim of Registrap study is to assess the safety and effectiveness of the EmboTrap®II Clot Retriever device (Neuravi) in patients with acute ischemic stroke from large vessel occlusion.
The purpose of this study is to assess safety and effectiveness of direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs) and warfarin for stroke prevention in patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation (AF). The comparison of DOACs versus oral vitamin K antagonists, in particular warfarin, is of interest. The investigators will carry out separate population-based, matched cohort studies, using health administrative databases in seven Canadian provinces. New users of oral anticoagulants (DOACs or warfarin) for stroke prevention in non-valvular AF will be eligible to enter the cohorts. Follow-up will continue until a hospitalization or emergency department visit for a stroke. The results from the separate sites will be combined by meta-analysis to provide an overall assessment of the safety and effectiveness of the different anticoagulation regimens in stroke prevention in AF. The investigators hypothesize that DOACs and warfarin will have similar safety and effectiveness profiles.
The goal of this study is to develop a large longitudinal cohort of individuals diagnosed with or at high risk for brain diseases (both neurological and psychiatric in nature), in order to identify risk factors that contribute to neurological and psychiatric diseases over time. The investigators seek to capture relevant information from medical records, electronically administered questionnaires and follow up phone-based interviews. The investigators expect to eventually have sufficient power from our dataset to examine risk factors for a variety of brain disorders, both individually and in aggregate. Our ultimate goal is to offer scientifically validated ways to preserve and promote brain health by working with our patients' needs and tracking their progress over time.
