Filter by:Every participant will receive active study drug and (tone) 1 comparator, in two (2) stages, one after the other. Each drug will be taken one (1) time after a high fat meal. Vital signs and discussion of medications, illness or injury are considered safety assessments and will be discussed at every visit. There will be (four) 4 visits.
Cognitive technology therapies, including interactive video gaming, computer soft wares and mobile technology, have been used to implement cognitive training and rehabilitation programs. Potential advantages to using technology-based interventions include enhanced accessibility and cost-effectiveness, providing a user experience to be good communicator, immersive and comprehensive.
To assess the effect of Dexmedetomidine on serum Tau-217 protein and its relation to the incidence and severity of postoperative cognitive dysfunction in elderly patients undergoing major surgery under general anesthesia.
Pentoxifylline can improve cognitive impairment after ischemic stroke, possibly by improving the level of cerebral blood flow, affecting the content of blood oxygen and metabolic substances in the brain, and then playing a protective role in the transmission of nerve electrical signals, and ultimately improving cognitive function. The patients with cognitive impairment and non-dementia PSCIND after ischemic stroke were randomly divided into two groups. In addition to the basic drugs of ischemic stroke, the patients were given pentothemine sustained release tablets and blank control respectively to observe the effects of pentothemine on cognitive function and neuronal electrical signals in the patients with ischemic PSCIND. It is expected to explore the possible internal biological mechanism by using transcranial Doppler, oxygen-dependent functional magnetic resonance imaging and craniocerebral magnetic resonance pop analysis. Finally, statistical correlation analysis was used to elucidate the specific mechanism of pentoxifylline in improving cognitive function of non-dementia patients with cognitive impairment after ischemic stroke.
This study investigates the potential relationship between prior concussions and their impact on both vestibular function and cognitive abilities in athletes participating in sports.
Person-centred care can be supported when healthcare professionals access and actively use the information recorded in a life story. Active use of the life story can create security for a person with dementia and their carers. The written life story describes the person and their life experiences, which can define the person's identity. National guidelines for care and nursing in dementia and Blekinge's regional guidelines emphasise the importance of care and nursing for people with dementia, which should be given with a person-centred approach, where the life story becomes a tool for healthcare professionals. Research shows that a life story can be designed in several ways. For example, in book form, as a brochure, collage, memory box or electronically. The life story is also intended as a tool for healthcare professionals to create security and facilitate communication with the individual. As more and more older adults are using computers and tablets as assistive devices, and it is also becoming more common for healthcare professionals to use, for example, tablets as assistive devices in nursing care, the life story could be shared in digital form as an application and become a living document. Overall aim: To test an application for the life story with the intention of supporting person-centred care for older adults with dementia and to test whether the application can replace the written completion document. Study I: Exploring the research area of the life story in digital form. Study II: Focus group interviews with healthcare professionals. Study III: Test the application, Min Memoria. Study IV: Observations on the use of the application.
The purpose of this study is to explore the mechanism of cognitive impairment in patients with symptomatic intracranial atherosclerotic stenosis (ICAS), and further plans to explore the impact of different treatment options on cognitive function in symptomatic ICAS patients.
The aim of this randomized controlled trial is to find the combined effects of restorative and compensatory cognitive rehabilitation techniques in mild cognitive impairment after stroke.
The goal of this observational study is to investigate the frequency and the possible pathogenic role of neuronal synaptic antibodies (NSAb) in patients with cognitive impairment (CI). The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. the frequency and associated features of NSAb in patients with CI and the usefulness of a clinical score in improving autoimmune dementia (AID) diagnosis; 2. the clinical significance of NSAb in patients with CI not fulfilling the autoimmune encephalitis (AE) criteria and serum NSAb (NSAb-pos-CI); 3. the impact of blood-brain-barrier (BBB) dysfunction on their pathogenicity.
This observational study aims to evaluate multiple dimensions of health in patients with Obstructive Sleep Apnea Syndrome (OSAS), before and after three weeks of ventilotherapy. Specifically, the study aims to identify pre- vs post-treatment differences in the following domains: - cognitive performance - blood expression of biomarkers related to neurodegeneration - psychosocial wellbeing Thus, patients will complete the following evaluations before (T0) and after (T1) ventilotherapy: - neuropsychological standard assessment - blood sampling - psychosocial self-reported questionnaires
