Study after stroke to help thinking and memory recovery
Part of Brain & nervous system, Heart & circulation, Mental health clinical trials.
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.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You had an ischemic stroke confirmed by MRI (a type of scan)
- Your MRI scan must include a blood-flow/perfusion image taken with an external contrast dye
- You are able to take cognitive (thinking/memory) tests by phone
- You can complete the study’s phone call testing at the required times

This study tests whether a noninvasive brain stimulation treatment, combined with rehabilitation, can improve thinking and other “neurocognition” problems after a recent stroke. It may help people whose thinking has been affected by stroke within the past month.
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.
This research study tracks how the brain's connections change after a stroke treated with clot-removal procedures. Researchers will use special MRI scans to understand how the brain recovers and potentially improve future stroke care.
This trial tests if a gentle brain stimulation treatment (TMS) can help improve memory and thinking after a recent stroke. It is for people who had their first stroke within the last two weeks and have mild cognitive difficulties.
This study looks at how social factors (like where you live or your income) might affect thinking and memory after a stroke. If you had a stroke before and joined a related study, you may be able to join this one.
This study tests whether a noninvasive brain stimulation treatment can improve thinking and memory problems after an acute ischemic stroke. It also uses brain scans to better understand how the treatment may help.
