Vascular dementia check-up and risk diagnosis study
Part of Brain & nervous system, Heart & circulation, Mental health clinical trials.
This study aims to find early ways to diagnose “vascular dementia,” which happens when blood vessel problems affect thinking and memory. It may help by testing how well certain health risk factors and medical information can predict who might be developing it.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This study looks for ways to lower the risk of developing dementia and improve thinking skills in people over 60. You may be eligible if you do not have dementia but have early warning signs of memory or thinking changes.
This trial looks for new ways to diagnose memory and thinking problems earlier. It involves a memory test, brain scan, and blood draw to find markers that could help identify cognitive disorders.
This study uses a digital tool to help detect early signs of Alzheimer's disease in people aged 50 and older. It aims to find high-risk individuals who may benefit from early monitoring.
This study is testing whether simple blood tests can help doctors better understand the type and progression of memory or thinking problems in people with early dementia. It aims to improve confidence in the diagnosis and future outlook.
This study looks at how blood flow in the brain and related brain processes change after stroke, especially when someone also has conditions like dementia, depression, or delirium. It may help researchers understand what drives these problems and how they connect.
This study tracks people ages 30 to 60 who have signs of small vessel disease on brain MRI. It aims to understand the risk of dementia over the next 10 years, so you can get early monitoring and care.
