Testing thinking skills after a localized brain injury
Part of Brain & nervous system, Heart & circulation, Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
This trial studies how your thinking and memory abilities work after a single, localized brain injury seen on MRI. It involves cognitive (thinking) tasks to assess changes and may help researchers understand brain function after injury.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Be between 18 and 70 years old
- Have one localized brain injury (not widespread), shown on an MRI scan
- Have enough ability to understand instructions and do the thinking tasks
- If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, the trial may not be suitable
- You should not have another physical condition that could affect thinking (like an unrelated illness)
- You cannot be in custody or otherwise deprived of liberty

This study looks at thinking and memory problems in younger adults (18 to 45) who have had an ischemic stroke. It aims to understand how a stroke affects the brain's ability to think clearly.
This trial looks at treatments or approaches to improve thinking and memory problems after a first stroke. You may be eligible if your stroke was in the front part of the brain, confirmed by MRI, and you enroll within 10 days.
This study looks at how thinking and memory change after a stroke using short cognitive tests. It may help researchers better understand which brain changes affect thinking, and how to measure them accurately.
This trial looks at stroke patients who can show specific scan findings on an MRI, then uses thinking tests by phone to track cognitive (thinking and memory) changes. It may help researchers understand whether targeting brain blood-flow disruption can improve post-stroke cognition.
This study tests a new Chinese version of the LOTCA scale, a test that checks thinking and memory skills, in people who have had a traumatic brain injury. If you join, you'll help doctors learn if this test works well for assessing brain function after injury.
This study uses memory and thinking tests along with brain scans (likely MRI) to understand how different types of brain damage affect thinking. It may help doctors learn more about brain-related cognitive problems.
