Remimazolam in the Extraction of Impacted Wisdom Teeth

Dental AnxietySedation Complication1 more

Benzodiazepines, represented by midazolam, are often used for sedation in outpatient surgery in dentistry. However, midazolam has the problems of slow consciousness recovery and long recovery time, which brings trouble to the patients. Remimazolam is a new type of ultra short acting sedative anesthetic. Compared with other similar products, remimazolam has faster effect, rapid metabolism and has no accumulation, which may mean that compared with midazolam, remimazolam has a better clinical application prospect in dental outpatient surgery.

Enhanced Hippocampal Neuroplasticity for Surfacing of Inaccessible Traumatic Memories in Veterans...

PTSDPeritraumatic Amnesia

Hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) includes the inhalation of 100% oxygen at pressures exceeding one atmosphere absolute. HBOT has been applied worldwide, mostly for chronic non-healing wounds. Our team demonstrated that HBOT induced hippocampal neuroplasticity in veterans with long-standing treatment-resistant PTSD; this led to enhanced memory recovery and significant improvement in PTSD symptoms. Both physical activity, such as aerobic exercise, and cognitive training were shown to support neurogenesis in the hippocampus. Therefore, the current study aims to evaluate whether hippocampal training, induced by physical and cognitive training, will augment the hippocampal neuroplasticity effect of HBOT and further enhance recovery of inaccessible memories in veterans with PTSD. The protocol will include forty male veterans aged 25 to 60 years, with combat-associated PTSD and peritraumatic amnesia, who will receive either HBOT alone or HBOT and hippocampal training. The HBOT protocol will consist of 60 daily sessions, 90-minutes each, five days a week. Hippocampal training will combine physical and cognitive training 3 times per week, prior to HBOT sessions. Detailed psychological evaluation, anatomic and functional MRI, electroencephalogram and autonomic nervous system data will be obtained at baseline, and during and after treatment. The proposed study offers a new approach of biological treatment for memory manipulations. The findings will help elucidate the mechanism of PTSD-related memory impairment and is expected to contribute to the development of biological memory manipulations for treating PTSD and other memory-related conditions.

Sevoflurane's Effect on Neurocognition Study

AnesthesiaPain1 more

The purpose of this study is to determine the effects of acute pain on long-term memory and conditioned physiologic responses in the presence and absence of low dose sevoflurane. Functional magnetic resonance imaging will be used to identify the neural correlates of these phenomena. The study will occur over 2 visits and involves no long-term follow up.

OCT-Angiography and Adaptive Optics in Patients With Memory Impairment

AmnesiaAlzheimer Disease2 more

Studies suggest an association between retinal abnormalities and NCD (Neuro Cognitive Disorders) whether they are linked to proven or prodromal Alzheimer's disease (aMCI : amnestic mild cognitive impairment), or to other neurodegenerative diseases such as frontotemporal dementia or Lewy body diseases. These retinal anomalies objectified by OCT-A (Optical coherence tomography angiography) and adaptive optics (AO) appear different depending on the pathologies and could therefore serve as markers in vivo of the pathophysiological processes underlying NCD. No study to date has studied the retina and its vessels in NCD using adaptive optics. In this pilot study, we are proposing a combination of two new ophthalmological imaging techniques (OCT-A and AO), which allow rapid in vivo analysis in a completely non-invasive way of the morphology of small vessels as well as architecture of the retina to better specify the retinal anomalies associated with NCD. We will compare the parameters in OCT-A and AO between patients with NCD and controls without NCD (with memory complaint or without) and will seek to determine if there are different profiles according to the causes of NCD.

Rare Disease Patient Registry & Natural History Study - Coordination of Rare Diseases at Sanford...

Rare DisordersUndiagnosed Disorders316 more

CoRDS, or the Coordination of Rare Diseases at Sanford, is based at Sanford Research in Sioux Falls, South Dakota. It provides researchers with a centralized, international patient registry for all rare diseases. This program allows patients and researchers to connect as easily as possible to help advance treatments and cures for rare diseases. The CoRDS team works with patient advocacy groups, individuals and researchers to help in the advancement of research in over 7,000 rare diseases. The registry is free for patients to enroll and researchers to access. Visit sanfordresearch.org/CoRDS to enroll.

Assessment of Emotional Memory During Transient Global Amnesia

AmnesiaTransient Global

There are few studies on the role played by emotions in transient global amnesia (TGA), in particular with regard to their impact on the functioning of memory. The study investigators wish to better understand the link between episodic memory, emotional state and psychogenic factors during TGA. It would be interesting to see if the patients suffering from TGA triggered by a psychological shock process emotional information differently from those whose TGA was triggered by an "organic" shock (physical effort, trauma, etc.). Finally, amnesic stroke is a good model for better understanding the function of the hippocampus, in particular of the CA1 region, in episodic memory.

Neuropsycholgy and Neuroimaging in Transient Global Amnesia

Transient Global Amnesia (TGA)

The purpose of this study is to establish a diagnosis in transient global amnesia (TGA) in assessing three episodic memory's abilities (mental simulation throught the future, and the past, the learning of personnal actions i-e the enactment effect). Secondary goal is to describe the neuronal substrates associated to the alteration of theses abilites in TGA.

Pilot RECAP Study in Healthy Volunteers

Psychedelic ExperiencesAmnesia

The primary objective of the RECAP Study Program is to investigate the role played by conscious experience in the antidepressant effects of the psychedelic agent psilocybin. This pilot dosing study (PILOT RECAP) is designed to determine the optimal dose of midazolam that allows a psychedelic experience to occur while inducing amnesia for the experience. This is an essential step required for subsequent evaluation of the role of memory for the psychedelic experience in the antidepressant effects of psilocybin in the full RECAP study.
