Filter by:The aim of the study is to evaluate the differences in cognitive performance and quality of life, after a cycle of treatment with the relaxometer, between a group of patients affected by fibromyalgia and a control group.
The study investigates the incidence of remote ischemic conditioning in mild cognitive impairment and dementia patients
For many Veterans, success in achieving goals at work, school and in other aspects of life are top priorities. The abilities to regulate attention, remember key information, and stay calm and on track are fundamental to this success. Unfortunately, Veterans who have experienced a traumatic brain injury (TBI) often struggle with these very abilities, and a number of barriers can make it difficult for them to access the help Veterans need. Tele-rehabilitation has the potential to overcome some of these barriers and increase access to care, enabling providers to better reach Veterans 'where they are' in their communities. This project will assess two different approaches to brain injury rehabilitation that seek to help Veterans build personal strengths to better accomplish their goals. Both approaches will be delivered remotely via tele-rehabilitation and augmented by digital apps to best support Veterans' learning in community settings outside the VA.
This is a randomized controlled trail. A total of 28 individuals with aMCI will be randomly assigned to either the ISE group or control group. The ISE intervention conducts three times a week for 16 weeks. Outcomes are measured at baseline and after intervention. The primary outcomes are the Chinese version verbal learning test (CVVLT), selective reminding test (SRT), and logic memory test (Wechsler Memory Scale). The secondary outcomes are Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA) for cognitive function, and trail making test Part A & B (TMT-A & B), Stroop test, and 25-item Executive Interview (C-EXIT 25) for executive function.
The investigators aim to test the feasibility of a pragmatic non-pharmacological strategy, that may prevent cognitive decline in patients with mild cognitive impairment. This strategy is based on five different interventions: cognitive training, physical activity, nutrition education, adaption to memory loss, diagnosis and correction of hearing impairment. A quasi-experimental study will be implemented in Porto (Portugal), including patients that fulfill all of the following criteria: a) age 18-85 years; b) Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA) score greater than or equal to two standard deviations below the normative reference value for the corresponding age and education level in the Portuguese population OR diagnosis of Mild Cognitive Impairment, performed by a Neurologist, during the six previous months, considering the results of a neuropsychological battery; c) Cardiovascular Risk Factors, Aging and Dementia (CAIDE) Dementia Risk Score of at least six points. Patients who have any medical disability that contraindicates physical activity or have a lack of autonomy in daily activities will be excluded. The program will be implemented in groups of 10 participants, over a period of 10 consecutive months.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effects of SMR neurofeedback training on cognitive performance and electrical brain activity in elderly with cognitive impairment.
This study evaluate the cognitive functions of patient after hip or kneel replacement.Half of the patient will receive transcutaneous vagus nerve electrical stimulation during the surgery while the other half will get placebo therapy
Aim of this trial is to define if Post-Operative Cognitive Dysfunction and Delirium, detected analyzing changes between pre-operative and post-operative Neurocognitive Test, relate to concentration of effector's site concentration of propofol and remifentanil TCI and to the common intraoperative neuromonitoring values.
Cognitive impairment or dementia is their last degree in one of the main concerns at a social level in these ages. To this day, there are different pharmacological and non-pharmacological therapies that can help prevent deterioration, as in this case, physical exercise. In the existing scientific literature, you can find a lot of information about the effect of aerobic exercise on cognition, but little is known about the effect of force exercise and its effect on general cognition and executive functions. Therefore, in this research the investigators will investigate the effect of strength training in people over 60 with a diagnosis of mild cognitive impairment in executive functions. For this, a controlled and randomized clinical trial will be developed in the city of Seville
This multicenter, double-blind, Randomized, parallel-group study in subjects with methamphetamine dependence was to assess the efficacy of MBRP combined with vortioxetine and MBRP alone on 24-week abstinence rates, improvement of cognition and depressive symptoms.
