Wuhan, HubeiAges 18–75 - NCT05706831Recruiting
Music and gentle brain stimulation after neurological injury
This trial tests whether combining music with gentle electrical brain stimulation can improve symptoms after a neurologic event, such as language and attention problems. It’s meant for adults who are living with effects of stroke and certain levels of reduced awareness.
Bari, BaAges 18 years+ - NCT05943652Recruiting
Study of how functional overlay affects movement disorders
This study looks at movement disorders that are functional (not caused by damage to the nervous system) or non-functional, and how a “functional overlay” may change symptoms. It is observational, meaning it does not test a new treatment, but it may help researchers better understand these differences and improve care.
Graz, StyriaAges 18–18 - NCT06983119Recruiting
Finding early signs of memory loss in Pavia
This study looks for early thinking and memory changes in people 50 and older who haven't been diagnosed with cognitive decline. You'll complete a quick assessment to see if further checkups might help.
Pavia, PaviaAges 18 years+ - NCT00874783Recruiting
Testing nerve-cell growth from donated body cells
This trial uses donated body cells or small hair samples from people with neurological diseases (and healthy donors) to try to grow “nerve-like” cells for research. It may help scientists learn how to better study and treat different neurological conditions.
