Thinking after a Stroke: A Study of Memory and Thinking
Part of Brain & nervous system, Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study looks at thinking and memory problems in younger adults (18 to 45) who have had an ischemic stroke. It aims to understand how a stroke affects the brain's ability to think clearly.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

- You are between 18 and 45 years old.
- You had an ischemic stroke (a type of stroke caused by a blockage) that was seen on an MRI.
- You can speak and read French fluently.

This trial tests whether a ginkgo biloba extract supplement can help improve thinking and memory after a stroke. It is for people who recently had a stroke and have some mild to moderate memory problems, but are not already taking other memory medications.
This trial looks at treatments or approaches to improve thinking and memory problems after a first stroke. You may be eligible if your stroke was in the front part of the brain, confirmed by MRI, and you enroll within 10 days.
This study looks at how thinking and memory change after a stroke using short cognitive tests. It may help researchers better understand which brain changes affect thinking, and how to measure them accurately.
This study looks at the link between stroke, delirium (sudden confusion), and long-term thinking problems. It tests whether EEG and MRI scans can help predict who may have trouble thinking clearly after a first stroke.
This study looks at how a certain type of small stroke affects thinking and memory. It uses special brain scans to learn more, which might help doctors understand and support patients better after a stroke.
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.
