HEMIPARESIS AFTER STROKE

This study tests whether a spinal cord stimulator, combined with physical therapy, can help people who have had a stroke regain arm and hand movement. Twenty adults with long-term arm weakness will first do therapy alone, then get a spinal implant and repeat therapy with stimulat…

This study tests whether psilocybin, a psychedelic substance, is safe for people who had a stroke at least a year ago. Researchers will monitor blood pressure and other vital signs in 20 participants. The goal is to see if psilocybin can help with lingering symptoms like weakness…

This study tests a non-invasive brain stimulation technique called iTBS to see if it can improve balance and leg movement in people who had a stroke more than six months ago. Researchers will measure changes in walking and brain activity. The goal is to find a safe, practical way…

This study tests whether a non-invasive brain stimulation technique called intermittent theta burst stimulation (iTBS) can improve arm and leg movement in people who had a stroke more than six months ago. 48 participants will receive either real or sham stimulation over 15 sessio…

This study compares three different robotic exoskeletons to see which one helps stroke survivors walk better. Researchers will enroll 96 people who had a stroke 3 to 8 months ago and have weakness on one side. Participants will use the devices during gait training, and the goal i…

This study looks at whether a standard shoulder X-ray can detect bone loss in the weak arm of people who have had a stroke. Researchers will measure bone thickness on X-rays from 65 stroke survivors and compare those measurements to the gold-standard DXA bone density scan. If the…
