NEUROLOGIC DISORDER

This study tests a brain-computer interface (BCI) implant for people with ALS or motor neuron disease who have weakness in both arms. The device aims to let them control computers or other devices just by thinking. The main goal is to check safety, such as serious side effects, o…

This study looks at whether the position you are in during a bladder test (lying down vs. sitting up) changes the diagnosis of a condition called detrusor overactivity (uncontrolled bladder contractions). The study involves 160 people with multiple sclerosis or Parkinson's diseas…

This study looks at three different hand therapies—mirror therapy, brain stimulation, and robotic hand training—added to standard rehab for stroke patients. The goal is to see which one works best for improving arm movement, reducing pain, and boosting quality of life. About 120 …

This study is testing a special full-body suit that uses mild electrical pulses to help people with conditions like multiple sclerosis or fibromyalgia who suffer from muscle tightness, overactive reflexes, or pain. About 15 adults will try the suit to see if it improves balance a…

This study tests whether a soft-robotic glove can help people with hand weakness from injury or nerve conditions use their hand more in everyday tasks. Up to 5 adults will wear the glove at home for 6 weeks during activities like gripping objects. Researchers measure arm activity…

This study tests whether listening to favorite music can improve awareness in people with severe brain injuries who are in a coma or minimally conscious state. Researchers will measure changes in consciousness using a standard scale and brain scans. The goal is to see if passive …

This study tests a communication tool where parents of children with severe neurological problems share photos and stories with ICU doctors. The goal is to see if this helps reduce stress and improve understanding during hospital stays. About 160 parents and children will take pa…

This study looks at people who had a specific type of brain bleed (aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage) to see if their memory problems are linked to a smaller hippocampus, a brain area important for memory. Researchers will use MRI scans and memory tests to compare patients with …

This study is creating a large collection of medical images and health information from 50,000 adults undergoing advanced CT or MRI scans. Researchers will analyze these images to find hidden patterns that could improve how we prevent, diagnose, and treat diseases like cancer, he…

This study is collecting data from 200 people with cerebral palsy, multiple sclerosis, stroke, fibromyalgia, or similar neurologic conditions to see how the EXOPULSE Suit affects balance and walking over time. Participants will be followed routinely, and researchers will measure …

This study is creating a shared database of children who have had deep brain stimulation (DBS) for conditions like dystonia, epilepsy, and Tourette syndrome. By pooling data from multiple hospitals, researchers hope to learn which children benefit most and how to improve the proc…

This study reviews medical records of 200 children with obstructive sleep apnea who had tonsil or adenoid surgery. Researchers want to see how often breathing problems happen after surgery, especially in children with obesity, Down syndrome, or neurological disorders. The goal is…

This study gathers information from 500 children worldwide who have both epilepsy and movement disorders caused by specific gene changes. Researchers will review medical records to learn how these conditions develop and connect. The goal is to create a shared database that helps …

This study looks at whether low magnesium in the blood is linked to memory and thinking problems after a stroke. Researchers will measure magnesium levels and cognitive skills in 80 stroke patients over time. The goal is to understand if magnesium deficiency plays a role in post-…

This study follows 130 patients with severe brain injuries (from stroke, trauma, or lack of oxygen) who are in a coma or minimally conscious state. Researchers will use brain scans, EEGs, and other tests to find clues that might predict if and when a patient will regain conscious…
