Brain stimulation trial to improve thinking in 22q11.2 deletion
Part of Blood & lymphatic, Bones, joints & muscles, Genetic & congenital, Heart & circulation, Hormones & metabolism clinical trials.
This trial tests a non-invasive brain stimulation approach to help improve executive function—skills like planning, attention, and self-control—in people with 22q11.2 deletion syndrome. If you qualify, you would be asked to participate and allow study procedures to see whether this treatment helps.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

- You and/or your caregiver are willing to take part in the study

This study tests if a gentle electrical stimulation applied to the head (called tDCS) can improve thinking and memory problems in people with recent schizophrenia. It might help you think more clearly and better manage daily tasks.
This trial tests whether mild brain stimulation (transcranial direct current stimulation or tDCS) over multiple sessions can improve thinking, behavior, and brain activity in adults with autism. It may help researchers learn if this safe, noninvasive treatment can support better daily functioning.
This study tests whether a non-painful brain stimulation method (tDCS) can improve attention and “thinking control,” and how brain activity changes during tasks. It also uses brain imaging (MRI), so safety and comfort conditions must be met.
This study is testing a gentle, non-invasive brain stimulation technique (called tES) to see how it affects memory and thinking in people with memory problems. It involves light electrical stimulation applied to the scalp during sessions over several weeks.
This trial tests a noninvasive brain stimulation method (tACS) to see if it can improve thinking, memory, and social abilities in people with cerebellar conditions. It may help if you have a cerebellar malformation or degenerative atrophy and are between 12 and 32 years old.
This trial tests if mild electrical stimulation applied to the head (tDCS) can help children with autism. Your child must be enrolled in ABA therapy and be off certain medications to join.
