The Mechanism of MicroRNAs Network in Alzheimer's Disease
Alzheimer DiseaseMicroRNAs network, such as MicRNA107 et al, regulate the pathology of Alzheimer's disease and the clinical validation in diagnosis AD.
Juice Plus Supplement Clinical Trial
Cognitive ImpairmentAlzheimer Disease2 moreThe study is designed to determine whether encapsulated fruit and vegetable juice concentrates can improve biological indicators of cognitive and multiple dimensions of memory and learning.
Autologous Human Adipose-Derived Mesenchymal Stem Cells in Alzheimer's Disease
Alzheimer DiseaseThis is a single patient emergency expanded access clinical study to assess the safety of administering autologous AdMSCs to an incurable Alzheimer disease patient. The study subject will be evaluated for disease-associated severity according to symptoms, cognitive function, memory, and quality of life.
Continuation of The Kronos Early Estrogen Prevention Study (KEEPS)
Alzheimer DementiaThe purpose of this study is to investigate how blood flow to the brain affects cognition in women who are postmenopausal, and how the use of hormone therapy early in menopause might change brain function. The testing in this study will add to the knowledge about brain aging in women. Researchers will determine if blood flow to the brain, brain structure, and cognition differences among women who took hormones in the past as part of Kronos Early Estrogen Prevention Study (KEEPS; NCT00154180), are currently taking hormones, or never took menopausal hormones.
Patients With Alzheimer's Disease or Related Youth Disease
Alzheimer DiseaseEarly Onset2 moreThis study aims to determine factors related to diagnosis delay for patients with young onset dementia (first symptoms before 60 years old) who live in North of France.
Taxonomic and Functional Composition of the Intestinal Microbiome: a Predictor of Rapid Cognitive...
Alzheimer DiseaseIntestinal MicrobiotaThe objective of the study is to highlight a modification of the composition of the intestinal microbiota associated with the diagnosis of Alzheimer's disease and its most unfavorable form, Rapid Cognitive Decline (DCR). This identification could lead to diagnostic strategies based on the analysis of the intestinal microbiome, and preventive and curative treatments, based on the modulation of intestinal microbiota
Expanded Access With Trappsol(R) Cyclo (TM) for an Individual Patient With Late Onset Alzheimer's...
Late Onset Alzheimer DiseaseTo afford urgent access to a potential-disease modifying treatment, Dr. Diana Kerwin, in partnership with CTD Holdings, the manufacturer of Trappsol (R) Cyclo(TM), will administer the product to a patient with Alzheimer's Disease who has no other disease-modifying treatment options.
Engagement 2.0 Forms of Consent for Data (re-)Use
Alzheimer DiseaseEarly Onset1 moreThe objective of this qualitative study is to create a better understanding of patients' mental model of health data engagement interfaces and tools (such as Dynamic Consent). The researchers will focus especially on those people who - plausibly - require adjusted communication particularities and interaction modalities due to a cognitive impairment stemming from a neurodegenerative disease. Taking into account the specific characteristics of patients with dementia, the goal of this study is to investigate how to communicate according to patients' personal skills and capabilities and identify both the proper support mechanisms for engagement 2.0 consent as well as feedback mechanisms (return of research results). Through a focus group & interview setup, this study will discern design requirements and propose design recommendations for the (future) development of health data engagement interfaces.
Verification Study and Reactivity Study for the Validity of QuQu Scale
Alzheimer's Disease DementiaCognitive Concern Without DementiaExamine the construct validity, the test-retest reliability, the concurrent validity with the standard dementia rating scales and the reactivity of a novel dementia rating scale "QuQu scale: QUick QUestion scale" final for the evaluation of patients with Alzheimer's Disease Dementia and Mild Cognitive Impairment.
Cognitive-motor Intervention Using Virtual Reality for Middle-aged Individuals at High Dementia...
Alzheimer's Disease (AD)The primary objective of this program is to apply a virtual reality (VR) cognitive-motor intervention (compared to active and passive control groups) to delay or slow cognitive decline of middle-aged adults who have a family history of Alzheimer's disease (AD) and thus are at particularly high risk of developing the disease.
