This study tests whether a personalized weaning strategy can help adults with chronic heart, brain, or lung conditions leave ventilators earlier. The strategy tailors care based on the main reason a patient struggles to breathe on their own, such as heart or muscle problems. Rese…

This study tests a community-based exercise program for people aged 50 and older who have at least two chronic conditions, such as heart disease, diabetes, arthritis, or obesity. The program is designed to improve muscle strength, heart and lung fitness, and overall well-being. R…

This study is testing a new cognitive assessment called the ExéSem battery, designed to help doctors tell the difference between language problems caused by memory loss versus those caused by thinking difficulties. Researchers will enroll 140 people, including those with Alzheime…

This observational study will enroll 440 Danish-speaking adults over 50 to see if an artificial intelligence model can detect dementia and mild cognitive impairment from speech recordings. Participants will complete standard cognitive tests and describe a picture while being reco…

This large registry study will follow over 2,700 postmenopausal women aged 45-75 who use newer forms of hormone replacement therapy (creams, gels, sprays). The goal is to see if these modern delivery methods lower the risk of heart attacks, strokes, and other cardiovascular event…

This study compares two ways to perform brain angiography: accessing an artery through the wrist (transradial) versus the groin (transfemoral). Over 2,400 people needing this imaging test will be randomly assigned to one method. Researchers will measure success rates, complicatio…

This study aims to develop a new EEG-based technique to detect 'cognitive-motor dissociation'—where a patient is aware but cannot move. Researchers will stimulate the median nerve (in the wrist) and analyze brain signals in 50 comatose ICU patients. The goal is to identify those …

This study will look at brain scans (MRI/CT) and symptoms of over 1,100 people with cerebrovascular disease. The goal is to find patterns linking specific scan findings to different types of the disease. This could help doctors diagnose and treat these conditions more accurately …

This study aims to create a version of the Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE) that works better for people in Reunion Island. The current French version has questions that don't fit local culture. Researchers will test 400 people aged 60-89, both healthy and those with Alzheime…
