Bone lead levels and mental health in adults
Part of Brain & nervous system, Mental health clinical trials.
This study looks at whether the amount of lead stored in the body (from old exposures) is linked to brain activity and mental health. It may help researchers understand what kinds of brain/mental health symptoms are related to lead exposure.

This study looks at how social factors and blood markers relate to psychiatric symptoms in people with brain diseases or mental disorders. It aims to find new ways to understand and diagnose these conditions.
This study looks at blood tests to help diagnose and track brain diseases (like Alzheimer's) or mental health conditions. It compares patients to healthy volunteers to find better ways to detect and monitor these illnesses.
This study looks at neurofilament light (a brain/nerve injury marker) and how it relates to thinking and memory problems in people with certain psychiatric conditions. It may help researchers understand brain changes and cognitive impairment, which could guide better diagnosis in the future.
This study is looking at how the brain works in healthy younger and older adults. You will participate in tasks and assessments that help researchers understand decision-making and brain function.
This study looks at whether certain substances in the blood can help predict how well a type of brain stimulation called intermittent theta burst stimulation (iTBS) works for people whose depression hasn't improved with standard treatments. It may help doctors choose better treatments in the future.
This study tests whether public health campaigns (like informational materials and community outreach) help reduce lead exposure in homes located in areas with documented lead risk. Researchers will visit your home, answer questions about your environment, and do blood tests to measure lead levels before and after the campaign.
