Study causes of small vessel brain disease in stroke and memory issues
Part of Brain & nervous system, Genetic & congenital, Heart & circulation, Hormones & metabolism clinical trials.
This trial looks at people who may have “small vessel” problems in the brain, which can cause stroke, memory trouble, walking changes, movement symptoms, or headaches. It may help researchers better understand the genetic and non-genetic causes, which could improve future diagnosis and treatment.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have at least one relevant history or symptom, like stroke, memory problems, walking trouble, or movement symptoms
- You may qualify if you have headaches (especially migraine) or a family history of small vessel disease
- You may qualify if your MRI shows small vessel disease signs (like white matter changes, small holes in the brain, or small bleeding spots)
- You (and your family, if relevant) must be willing to sign informed consent
- Your MRI findings must not be explained by other causes like inflammation, cancer, or structural (anatomy) problems

This study tracks people with cerebral small vessel disease (changes in the brain's tiny blood vessels) to learn more about how the condition progresses. It may be a good fit if you are 50 or older and have had an MRI showing these changes.
This study is a registry that collects information and brain scan findings from adults with possible small vessel disease. It may help doctors better understand how this condition looks on scans and what it is linked to.
This trial is looking at how brain “small blood vessel disease” changes over time and what outcomes to expect. If you have certain symptoms or scan findings from this condition, your care team may compare your prognosis to help guide future treatment planning.
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.
This study looks at inflammation-related changes in people with “small-vessel disease” of the brain. It will follow participants over time to understand the condition better and see how brain symptoms may change.
This study builds a brain imaging biobank for people with “small blood vessel disease” seen on MRI. Your MRI results can help researchers better understand these changes and track new events over time.
