This study looks at whether mild memory or thinking problems before heart surgery can affect recovery, specifically the chance of experiencing confusion after surgery. It aims to help patients and doctors plan better care.
This study tests two approaches together: a computer-based brain training program and a stronger cholesterol-lowering medicine, to see if they can help improve memory and thinking in people with narrowed brain arteries. You would be randomly assigned to different combinations of the two, and the doctors will monitor your progress.
This study looks at how heart health and brain health are connected. It may help improve thinking and memory in people with mild memory problems.
This study looks at how hardening of the arteries (atherosclerosis) relates to brain health and mental performance in people with coronary artery disease. It aims to find new ways to protect your heart and mind.
This study looks at how heart procedures (bypass surgery or stenting) affect thinking and memory. It will test your brain function before and after the procedure to see if there are any changes.
This study follows adults with type 2 diabetes to see who may develop heart problems and who may have memory or thinking changes over time. It may help doctors better predict risk and plan earlier support.
