Filter by:The main objective is to investigate whether administration of probiotics to patients with mild Alzheimer's Disease (AD) reduces neuroinflammation, improves cognitive function and modifies neurophysiological measures, compared to a patient group that receives placebo (no active probiotics).
This pilot study aims to evaluate the feasibility of a novel home-based multicomponent exercise program in adults clinically diagnosed with Primary Progressive Aphasia
The reason why each specific degenerative disease is characterized by a different FDG PET pattern is still unclear today. There are four main hypotheses proposed to explain this selective vulnerability: 1) Nodal stress, theory according to which the main nodes of specific brain networks undergo wear and tear, 2) trans-neuronal diffusion, theory according to which some toxic agents/proteins or altered propagate along network connections through "Prion-like" mechanisms, 3) trophic failure, in which the interruption of inter-modal connectivity causes the loss of collateral trophic factors, and finally 4) shared vulnerability in which regions also distant from each other are part of a common network which gives a susceptibility uniformly distributed throughout the network. FDG PET provides in-vivo information on the distribution of brain synaptic dysfunction prior to complete neural death, and represents the main in vivo biomarker of neural dysfunction associated with different clinical conditions characterized by neurodegeneration phenomena. For this reason, FDG PET is considered a fundamental approach to shed light on the causes of selective brain vulnerability in various pathological conditions.
This is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel group study. The use of placebo is appropriate to minimize bias related to treatment expectations of the subject, study partner, and site investigator, as well as to changes in the relationship between the subject and study partner that might occur with the initiation of treatment and expectation of improvement in motor symptoms or cognition. Changes in subject/study partner interactions can impact subject mood and might introduce biases that cannot be quantified. The double-blind use of placebo will also prevent bias in the clinical and scientific assessments.
The goal of this observational study is to assess Prakriti & Vikriti in patients visiting OPD of IIISM department, SRM hospital. The main question[s] it aims to answer are: - To evaluate Prakriti & Vikriti of patients using Prakriti & Vikriti questionnaire and with digital devices - To correlate the determined Prakriti and Vikriti with the doctor's assessment along with clinical and biochemical parameters Participants will be advised to follow the treating physician's advice on medicines
The aim of the study is to obtain information on cerebral glucose metabolism measured with the 18F-FDG PET technique in normal subjects without current or previous neurological or psychiatric pathologies in order to use the data obtained for voxel-based statistical analyzes for comparison with individual subjects ( patients with disease neurological or psychiatric) which will be evaluated with the same method to improve the specificity and diagnostic sensitivity of the FDG PET exam. The objective is to obtain a functional measure of brain glucose metabolism in every normal subject because this is a functional measure of brain activity. The subjects will represent different decades of age to have a wider range of comparison with patients.
This is a multicenter, longitudinal, prospective observational natural history study of subjects with a molecularly confirmed diagnosis of CMT4J. The study will enroll 20 subjects of any age into a uniform protocol for follow-up and evaluations. Subject visits will occur every 12 months + 4 weeks for up to 2 years.
To explore the diagnostic value of [18F]CSF-23 brain imaging for CSF1R expression in Alzheimer's disease. PET imaging with this PET tracer was used to assess the role and expression of CSF1R in AD and to evaluate the level and safety of abnormal present imaging.
ORION Trial is a trial to evaluate the efficacy and safety of AMX0035 in participants with Progressive Supranuclear Palsy (PSP), consisting of a randomized double blind placebo controlled phase, followed by an optional open-label extension phase.
Continuation study to provide continued access to latozinemab for participants who have previously participated in a latozinemab study
