Frontotemporal dementia and/or amyotrophic lateral sclerosis 7

Researchers are testing a muscle biopsy method that uses mild electrical stimulation to sample the junction where nerves meet muscle. The goal is to see if this technique helps distinguish between inclusion body myositis and motor neuron disease, which can look alike. The study i…

This study aims to find early markers of Parkinson's disease, multiple system atrophy, and Lewy body dementia by analyzing samples from the nose, blood, and urine. Researchers will compare results from 180 people with these conditions and healthy volunteers. The goal is to improv…

This study uses advanced MRI scans and genetic tests to track how neurodegenerative diseases like frontotemporal dementia and ALS spread across the brain's network. Researchers will follow 645 participants, including patients, family members, and healthy controls, for up to 2 yea…

This study follows 1000 people with upper motor neuron disease who are about to receive the Cionic Neural Sleeve. The sleeve uses electrical stimulation to help muscles contract at the right time during movement. Researchers will track changes in health-related quality of life us…

This observational study looks at how brain inflammation contributes to frontotemporal lobar degeneration (FTLD), a group of disorders that cause dementia. Researchers will use advanced brain scans, blood tests, and spinal fluid analysis in 110 participants to find biomarkers tha…
