Circadian rhythm factors in people with memory clinic concerns
Part of Brain & nervous system, Mental health clinical trials.
This study looks at how daily body-clock timing (circadian rhythm) and other factors may relate to memory and thinking symptoms in memory clinic patients. You may be asked to wear a small device for about 9 days to track your daily patterns.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

- Sign an informed consent form to join the study
- Be covered by the French social security system
- Do not have a known skin allergy to plastic

This observational study follows people with (or at risk for) Alzheimer’s-related brain changes and a comparison group without them. It uses clinic visits, cognitive testing, questionnaires, and possibly a spinal fluid test to better understand brain biomarkers and how they relate to thinking and daily life.
This study is testing a digital tool to help people with mild to moderate dementia plan their care at home or in a care facility. It uses a small wearable sensor to track activity and health, aiming to improve quality of life and support for caregivers.
This study tests a new way to check cognitive (thinking and memory) health using a simple headband that measures electrical signals on your scalp. It is looking for people 65 to 90 years old, with or without memory concerns, and a family member or friend who can also take part.
This study tests whether combining better sleep routines with mild exercise can help with memory, concentration, and thinking speed. To do that, you would wear special devices and complete quick at-home and in-person assessments and a small finger-prick blood test.
This study creates a practical tool to measure “episodic memory,” which is your ability to recall events from daily life. It includes adults age 70+ with different memory levels, to see how well the tool works for people with dementia and for those without.
This study tests a 3D tool (like a special clock) to help people with Alzheimer's keep track of time. You may be eligible if you have mild to moderate Alzheimer's and trouble with time orientation.
