Studying nerve system changes after stroke with MRI and blood tests
Part of Brain & nervous system, Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study looks at how the nervous system's automatic functions (like heart rate and blood pressure) change after a stroke. It uses MRI scans and blood tests to find patterns that might help doctors better understand and treat these changes.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You had a recent stroke or TIA (mini-stroke) with symptoms like weakness or trouble speaking.
- Symptoms started within 3 days before you came to the hospital.
- You could walk without help before the stroke.
- You are 18 years or older.
- You can have an MRI (no metal implants, severe claustrophobia, or pregnancy).
- You do not have other active illnesses like infection, thyroid disease, or Parkinson's.

This trial looks at whether changes in blood pressure after an ischemic stroke (a stroke caused by blocked blood flow) are linked to recovery and outcomes. You may be asked to have MRI scans soon after arriving to help researchers understand who is at higher risk and why.
This study uses detailed brain MRI scans to learn how brain tissue changes after stroke or a TIA (a brief stroke-like event). It may help researchers better understand brain recovery and improve future care.
This study looks at how the brain and heart interact right after an acute ischemic stroke. It may help doctors better understand what happens in the first hours of stroke and improve monitoring or future treatments.
This study uses brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans to look at changes in the brain after a stroke. It may help researchers better understand what happens in the brain over time and improve future care.
This study looks at how the brain's connections change after a stroke and its treatment. It uses MRI scans to understand recovery and may help improve future stroke care.
This study uses ultra-powerful MRI to see how the brain reorganizes after a stroke. It may help explain why some people recover arm movement and guide future therapies.
