Language recovery in people with brain arteriovenous malformations
Part of Genetic & congenital, Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study looks at how language areas of the brain reorganize in people who have an arteriovenous malformation (AVM), a tangle of abnormal blood vessels, on the left side. It may help understand how the brain adapts and could improve future treatments.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Your AVM must be in the left side of your brain, which controls language.
- You must be right-handed.
- Your first language must be Mandarin Chinese.
- You must be between 18 and 60 years old.
- You must have at least a high school education.
- You must not have had recent bleeding from the AVM or prior AVM treatment.

This study looks at outcomes for people with an unruptured brain arteriovenous malformation (AVM) using medical care only, without procedures. It may help doctors understand which medical approach and monitoring works best for different AVM locations seen on CT scans.
This study collects medical and imaging information from people with a brain arteriovenous malformation (AVM) to understand how different treatments are used in real life. It may help doctors improve future care, even if you are not receiving a new drug in this study.
This study tests emergency surgery for patients with bleeding from a brain blood vessel malformation (AVM). It aims to see if urgent surgery can help people with this type of stroke.
This study looks at tissue from brain surgeries to understand a specific cell signaling pathway (called Shh) that may play a role in brain arteriovenous malformations (AVMs). By studying this, researchers hope to find new ways to treat or prevent these abnormal blood vessel tangles in the brain.
This study looks at how brain arteriovenous malformations (abnormal connections between arteries and veins in the brain) behave over time, and how different treatment choices affect outcomes. It may help researchers better predict prognosis and guide future care.
This study is looking at treatment options for people who have an abnormal cluster of blood vessels in the brain (an AVM). It may help participants by offering a structured treatment approach, depending on the AVM type and recent symptoms.
