The proposed clinical trial will employ the NEUROExos Elbow Module (NEEM), an active robotic exoskeleton, for the passive mobilization and active training of elbow flexion and extension in 60 sub-acute and chronic stroke patients with motor impairments (hemiparesis and/or spasticity) of the right arm. The study protocol is a randomized …
Schizophrenia is a condition that causes symptoms like delusions, hallucinations, reduced motivation and muddled thinking. It is a common, severe and disabling psychiatric illness affecting about 1/100 (1%) of people. It is ranked the third most disabling illness worldwide. Six in seven patients do not recover from the illness in …
Background Parkinson Disease (PD) is a nervous system disorder that affects movement. Dopamine is an important neurotransmitter in the brain. As PD progresses, there is less and less dopamine in the brain. Researchers think there may be a relationship between differences in attention and dopamine in people with PD. Objective …
This is an observational study. Patients who fulfill all inclusion criteria and none of the exclusion criteria will be enrolled in the study, be neurologically evaluated and will go through EEG recordings while listening to an auditory cognitive assessment tool and preforming tasks. EEG recordings will be analyzed using proprietary …
Background Training in a new motor skill often involves periods of active practice and periods of rest. During early motor skill learning, improvements in performance usually happen during the short rest periods between practice sessions. Researchers want to use improved imaging techniques to study the contributions of specific parts of …
With the increase in life expectancy of our population due to advancement of medical diagnosis and treatments, the incidence of age dependent neurodegenerative diseases increased, including Alzheimer's disease (AD), parkinsonian syndromes (PS), small vessel disease (SVD) and motor neuron disease (MND). In spite of the progress of knowing the pathogenesis …
This prospective cohort study enrolls subjects who experience carbon monoxide (CO) poisoning. The purpose of the study is to evaluate therapeutic effects of various treatments and short and long-term outcomes in CO poisoned patients. In addition, complications of brain and heart susceptible to CO are investigated through various ways and …
Background: Neuromuscular diseases (NMD) represent a broad group of rare genetic and acquired disorders, affecting over 300,000 people in Canada. Given the multiple different NMD subtypes, almost half of patients with NMD remain undiagnosed. Objective: The purpose of this study is to identify genetic or other markers in patient biosamples …
This is a multicenter, multinational observational cohort study to document neurologic manifestations of COVID 19 among pediatric patients requiring hospital admission for confirmed or suspected COVID 19 (Coronavirus 19 disease, caused by infection with the SARS-CoV-2 (acute respiratory syndrome 2 ) virus. SARS-CoV2 shares significant structural and biological similarities with …
Background Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis type 4 (ALS4) is an inherited motor neuron disease. People with ALS4 have a change in the amount of RNA and DNA that bind together. This binding of RNA with DNA forms units called R-loops. Researchers want to learn how R-loops are related to ALS4. To …
