Using DDAVP with PET scans to find pituitary tumor source
This study tests whether giving DDAVP before a PET scan can help doctors better locate the pituitary problem in people with Cushing disease. It may help confirm where the ACTH-producing tumor is so surgery can be planned more accurately.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 8–99 - NCT04510363Recruiting
Ultrasound checks after cardiac arrest to predict recovery
This study uses ultrasound pictures of the eye and blood vessels after a non-traumatic cardiac arrest to see if early findings can predict how well patients recover. It may help doctors recognize which patients are more likely to improve using simple bedside tests.
TaipeiAges 20 years+ - NCT04445649Recruiting
Find factors to help people regain consciousness after brain injury
This study looks at what predicts recovery of consciousness after certain serious brain injuries, such as stroke or traumatic brain injury. It may help clinicians better identify which patients are more likely to wake up and guide early rehabilitation and care.
Hessisch OldendorfAges 18–85 - NCT04381208Recruiting
Using health and movement data to diagnose sacroiliac pain
This study looks at medical records and physical/neurological exam findings to help diagnose sacroiliac joint dysfunction, a common source of chronic low back or buttock pain. It may help your care team better sort out what’s causing your pain and choose the right next steps.
Valencia, ValenciaAges 18 years+ - NCT04461821Recruiting
Breath test to study disease in children
This study uses a special machine to analyze exhaled breath to learn about different illnesses in children and teens. It may help researchers find breathing “signals” that reflect conditions like breathing problems, nervous system issues, or new/worsening type 1 diabetes.
BaselAges Up to 22 years - NCT04449666Recruiting
Brain scan and memory testing after bleeding from a brain aneurysm
This trial uses brain MRI scans and memory/brain-function tests in people who are recovering from a specific type of brain bleed (aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage). It aims to understand how the brain’s memory area changes after the event and how that may relate to memory function during rehabilitation.
Hessisch OldendorfAges 18–70 - NCT04449068Recruiting
Tourette research using records from deep brain stimulation patients
This study is collecting information about people with severe Tourette syndrome who are not adequately helped by medication and may receive deep brain stimulation. It helps researchers understand outcomes and care patterns for this treatment over time using an observational database.
ParisAges 15 years+ - NCT04312126Recruiting
How naps may improve motor learning after stroke or in healthy adults
This study tests whether taking a nap can improve how well people learn a movement task. It may help you understand how sleep affects “motor learning,” both in healthy volunteers and after stroke.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–80 - NCT04322734Recruiting
Blood tests study immune and metabolism markers in neurodevelopment
This study looks for biological “signals” in blood—related to the immune system and metabolism—to better understand conditions like autism and other brain or development-related disorders. It may help researchers find markers that could guide future diagnosis or treatment.
