Cognitive impairment in moyamoya disease study
Part of Brain & nervous system, Heart & circulation, Mental health clinical trials.
This study looks at why some people with moyamoya disease have trouble with thinking and memory. It may help find better ways to understand and treat these problems.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have been diagnosed with moyamoya disease by a special brain scan called DSA.
- You are between 18 and 60 years old.
- You are willing to sign a consent form to join the study.

This study looks at how Moyamoya disease changes over time and what predicts outcomes. It uses approved brain imaging and, likely, thinking/memory tests to understand prognosis.
This study is building a tool to predict how people with moyamoya disease will do after brain surgery to improve blood flow. If you are an adult with moyamoya and are scheduled for this surgery, you may be able to help.
This study investigates moyamoya disease, a rare condition where blood vessels in the brain narrow over time. Researchers want to identify genetic and early warning signs by studying people diagnosed with the disease, their blood relatives, and healthy volunteers.
This trial follows people with moyamoya disease who are treated with medication only, and it also looks at first-degree relatives. The goal is to understand long-term outcomes and whether careful conservative care is beneficial over time.
This study uses advanced MRI scans to better predict the risk of bleeding in people with moyamoya disease, a rare condition where brain arteries narrow. It aims to improve prevention of bleeding strokes.
This study tests if statins (cholesterol-lowering drugs) can help people with Moyamoya disease. The trial will follow patients who receive either surgery or standard care to see if adding a statin improves outcomes.
