Study memory changes in people with past mild head injury
Part of Brain & nervous system, Injuries & trauma, Mental health clinical trials.
This Phase 2 study looks at how memory problems (amnestic mild cognitive impairment) may relate to a history of a mild traumatic brain injury. It compares people with a past mild head injury to people without one to better understand what might be driving memory symptoms.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have a current diagnosis of amnestic mild cognitive impairment (memory issues more than other thinking problems).
- You are age 55 or older.
- You can speak and understand English fluently.
- You will be placed in either a group with a past mild head injury or a group with no such history.
- You do not have major vision or hearing problems that would interfere with testing.

This study looks at how mild or moderate head injuries (concussions) may relate to brain conditions like chronic traumatic encephalopathy (CTE) and Alzheimer's disease. By comparing people with and without head injuries, researchers hope to learn more about what causes brain changes over time.
This study looks at how the brain changes in people with mild memory problems. It uses brain scans and a gentle, non-invasive electrical stimulation to see if we can improve brain function.
This study uses brain stimulation and MRI scans to learn more about memory problems in people with neurodegenerative diseases or brain injuries. It may help researchers understand how to improve treatment.
This study tests a targeted, non-surgical brain stimulation method to help people with memory, especially remembering facts over time. It compares healthy adults and adults with amnestic mild cognitive impairment (aMCI), using sessions plus brain scans and memory testing.
This study tests whether a combination of brain stimulation and cognitive training can reduce depression symptoms in people who have ongoing mild traumatic brain injury (TBI). It may help by targeting both mood and thinking/processing skills affected after mTBI.
This study tests a brain stimulation approach (TBS) to see if it can improve thinking and memory in people with mild cognitive impairment. It may also explore why it works by looking at brain-related measurements after TBS.
