NCT ID: NCT05910762 Recruiting - Sleep Clinical Trials

Human Learning of New Structured Information Across Time and Sleep

Start date: June 5, 2023
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Acting adaptively requires quickly picking up on structure in the environment and storing the acquired knowledge for effective future use. Dominant theories of the hippocampus have focused on its ability to encode individual snapshots of experience, but the investigators and others have found evidence that it is also crucial for finding structure across experiences. The mechanisms of this essential form of learning have not been established. The investigators have developed a neural network model of the hippocampus instantiating the theory that one of its subfields can quickly encode structure using distributed representations, a powerful form of representation in which populations of neurons become responsive to multiple related features of the environment. The first aim of this project is to test predictions of this model using high resolution functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) in paradigms requiring integration of information across experiences. The results will clarify fundamental mechanisms of how humans learn novel structure, adjudicating between existing models of this process, and informing further model development. There are also competing theories as to the eventual fate of new hippocampal representations. One view posits that during sleep, the hippocampus replays recent information to build longer-term distributed representations in neocortex. Another view claims that memories are directly and independently formed and consolidated within the hippocampus and neocortex. The second aim of this project is to test between these theories. The investigators will assess changes in hippocampal and cortical representations over time by re-scanning participants and tracking changes in memory at a one-week delay. Any observed changes in the brain and behavior across time, however, may be due to generic effects of time or to active processing during sleep. The third aim is thus to assess the specific causal contributions of sleep to the consolidation of structured information. The investigators will use real-time sleep electroencephalography to play sound cues to bias memory reactivation. The investigators expect that this work will clarify the anatomical substrates and, critically, the nature of the representations that support encoding and consolidation of novel structure in the environment.

NCT ID: NCT05657002 Completed - Humans Clinical Trials

A Study to the Impact of Accuracy Problem Lists in Electronic Health Records on Correctness and Speed of Clinical Decision-making Performed by Dutch Healthcare Providers

ADAM's APPLE
Start date: December 1, 2022
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The primary objective of this study is to determine whether patient records with complete, structured and up-to-date problem lists ('accurate problem lists'), result in better clinical decision-making, compared to patient records that convey the same information in a less structured way where the problem list has missing and/or duplicate diagnoses ('inaccurate problem lists'). The secondary objective is to determine whether the time required to make a correct decision is less for patient records with accurate problem lists compared to patient records with inaccurate problem lists.

NCT ID: NCT05417711 Not yet recruiting - Clinical trials for Tinnitus, Subjective

Efficacy of Transcutaneous Vagus Nerve Stimulation Paired With Tailor-Made Notched Music Therapy Versus Tailor-made Notched Music Training for Chronic Subjective Tinnitus

Start date: November 23, 2023
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

This clinical study is a prospective, multicenter, randomized, controlled, double-blind clinical study. Sun Yat Sen Memorial Hospital of Sun Yat sen University was the central unit, and Nanjing First Hospital, Sun Yat Sen people's Hospital, Guanfzhou Panyu central Hospital and Zhuhai integrated traditional Chinese and Western medicine hospital were the cooperative units. In this study, 388 patients with chronic subjective tinnitus were recruited. In view of chronic subjective tinnitus, a common ear disease, the study gave the patients three months of treatment with transcutaneous vagus nerve stimulation paired with tailor-made notched music therapy or tailor-made notched music training alone. By comparing the changes of subjective scale scores related to tinnitus before and after treatment in patients receiving two different therapies, such as THI, VAS, BAI, BDI, PSQI, to evaluate the efficacy of the two therapies, so as to judge whether transcutaneous vagus nerve stimulation paired with tailor-made notched music therapy is better than tailor-made notched music training alone. In addition, the study will continue to follow up the patients after the treatment for one year to observe the difference in the long-term sustained efficacy of the two therapies. This clinical study will also evaluate the two therapies from the perspective of compliance and safety, and explore the factors that affect the efficacy of the two therapies.

Light in Frail Elderly - the Effect of a Dynamic Light for Sleep and Circadian Rhythm

LIFE
Start date: October 31, 2022
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The aim of this project is to evaluate the effect of a dynamic light in order to improve the circadian rhythm, provide a better sleep and well-being, and in the long run an improved recovery. The primary question is whether dynamic artificial light with circadian stimulus can affect the circadian rhythm. The secondary question is whether this also provides better sleep and well-being. The group that is particularly interesting to study is a geriatric population that is more sensitive to circadian rhythm disorders, sleep disorders and confusion in connection with hospitalization and that can be of particular benefit from this intervention.

NCT ID: NCT04744233 Completed - Humans Clinical Trials

Bioavailability of Carotenoids From Orange Juice in a Cross-over Study in Healthy Subjects.

Start date: October 2001
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Commercially available fruit juices are obtained after applying industrial technologies to preserve and extend the shelf-life by inactivation of microorganism and enzymes. These are traditional thermal treatment (eg. pasteurization, sterilization) that causes losses of nutritional and bioactive compounds, changes physicochemical properties (colour, flavor and texture) and can modify their bioavailabilities. Thus, the traditional thermal processing is being replaced by less intense thermal technologies (e.g. low-temperature pasteurization / refrigerated storage) and non-thermal treatments such as the high-pressure processing (HPP) and the pulsed electric fields (PEF) as an alternative to enhace food safety and shelf-life without compromising organoleptic qualities (retain the flavour, color healthiness of fresh foods) and keeping their health-promoting capacity. The beneficial health effect derived from the orange juice intake is partly related to the bioavailability of their bioactive compounds. The aim of this study was to assess the effect of the intake of freshly squeezed orange juice (Citrus sinensis L.) and processed orange juice elaborated with different treatments (low pasteurization / refrigerated storage, high-pressure processing, pulsed electric fields) on the main serum carotenoid concentrations in a cross-over study in apparently healthy subjects using multiple dosis.
