Nasal insulin for people with spinal cord injury
Treatments studied
Part of Brain & nervous system, Hormones & metabolism, Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
This trial tests whether insulin given as a nasal spray is safe and possible for people with spinal cord injury. If it works, it might help with nerve recovery or other health issues.

This study tests whether a device placed near the spinal cord in your neck (called an epidural stimulator) can help improve arm and hand function after a spinal cord injury. It's designed for people with a long-term, motor-complete injury between the C4 and C7 levels.
This study tests whether testosterone therapy can improve brain and nerve function in men with low testosterone who have had a spinal cord injury for more than a year. It involves three visits over 30 days and may help with thinking, mood, or other nerve-related issues.
This trial tests whether transplanting special cells from your nose into the spinal cord, followed by intensive exercise, can help repair chronic spinal cord injuries. You would need to commit to a demanding exercise program and be in good overall health.
This study tests whether a type of electrical stimulation on leg muscles can help control blood sugar levels in people with spinal cord injury. It compares results to those without injury to see if this treatment might improve health.
This study tests a new combination of spinal cord and nerve stimulation to help people with spinal cord injuries regain hand function. If you have some movement in your hands but want to improve it, this trial might help you.
This study tests whether a non-invasive spinal cord stimulation device can help regulate blood pressure in people with spinal cord injury who have low blood pressure symptoms. It may help you feel less dizzy or faint when you sit or stand up.
