Study how stroke type affects thinking and recovery
Part of Brain & nervous system, Heart & circulation, Mental health clinical trials.
This study looks at what predicts memory and thinking problems after different types of stroke or brain bleeding, and how blood-vessel changes relate to recovery. You may be invited if you recently had a stroke/bleed and can complete a baseline check within 6 weeks.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years or older
- You were admitted to the hospital with an acute ischemic stroke, brain bleeding, or aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage
- Your MRI/CT scan confirms the specific type of stroke or bleeding
- You can do the first study visit (in person or by phone) within 6 weeks of symptom start
- You (or a legal proxy) can give informed consent
- You were fluent in English or Spanish before the stroke

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 looks at whether blood tests taken after your first stroke can help predict if you might have memory or thinking problems early on. It focuses on people with a stroke in the basal ganglia area of the brain, with the goal of identifying those who may need extra support sooner.
This study looks at the link between stroke, delirium (sudden confusion), and long-term thinking problems. It tests whether EEG and MRI scans can help predict who may have trouble thinking clearly after a first stroke.
This study looks at how blood flow in the small vessels of the brain is affected after a stroke or in cerebral small vessel disease. It aims to better understand these conditions, which could help improve care in the future.
This study looks at how a specific type of small stroke affects thinking and memory. It uses special brain scans to understand these changes better, which could help improve care for people with similar strokes.
