BordeauxAges 18–79 - NCT05829668Recruiting
Behavior plan study for children with Cornelia de Lange syndrome
This study tests a structured behavior assessment and treatment program for children with Cornelia de Lange syndrome who have challenging behaviors. It may help reduce self-injury, aggression, and disruptive behavior through a plan families can carry out.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 3–15 - NCT05830942Recruiting
Training walks plus brain stimulation for thinking skills in older adults
This study tests whether a structured walking exercise, combined with brain stimulation and brain scans, can improve or slow decline in thinking skills. It’s aimed at older adults who notice memory or confusion getting worse.
Gainesville, FloridaAges 65 years+ - NCT05831085Recruiting
Compare procedures to improve heart blood flow in diabetes
This study compares two ways to restore blood flow to the heart—stent placement (PCI) versus bypass surgery (CABG)—in people with diabetes and significant multi-vessel coronary artery disease. It looks at outcomes using both standard heart tests and additional imaging/functional measurements to guide the best revascularization strategy.
Palo Alto, CaliforniaAges 20 years+ - NCT05832528Recruiting
Low FODMAP diet for indigestion after meals
This study tests whether a low FODMAP diet can reduce symptoms of functional indigestion or post-meal discomfort. It’s mainly for people whose symptoms are clearly linked to eating and who haven’t changed diets recently.
Leuven, Vlaams-BrabantAges 18–70 - NCT05846802Recruiting
Gastroparesis and stomach symptoms registry for adults
This registry is for adults with long-lasting stomach emptying problems or related symptoms, helping researchers better understand patterns of nausea, pain, and fullness. You may be able to join if you meet specific symptom and test results, and can complete a stomach-emptying scan.
Scottsdale, ArizonaAges 18–85 - NCT05847426Recruiting
Testing early hearing support using brain scans in babies
This study helps improve early hearing care by using a simple brain scan test (fNIRS) in babies with permanent hearing loss. It compares different early intervention approaches and aims to find better ways to support hearing development early on.
East Melbourne, VictoriaAges 24 years+ - NCT05895019Recruiting
Propofol’s effects on brain function in Parkinson’s surgery
This study tests how propofol, a common anesthesia medicine, affects brain activity in people with Parkinson’s disease during planned surgery. It also compares them with people without Parkinson’s during similar non-brain, non-heart surgery.
