Introduction Coronavirus disease 2019 (CoViD-19) is a new pathogen that is highly contagious, can spread quickly, and it is capable of causing enormous health, economic and societal impacts in any setting (WHO-China joint mission on CoViD-19). Although COVID 19 belongs to coronavirinae sub-family
Parkinson disease (PD) affects over 1 million Americans and causes considerable personal and socioeconomic costs (>$34 billion/year in the US) that are expected to rise as the population ages. Cognitive impairment produces disability and reduced quality of life among non-demented people with PD.
Patients with post-stroke depression (PSD) have more dysfunction, poorer recovery outcomes, and higher morbidity and mortality in the first year after stroke onset than those patients without stroke. Some therapeutic methods have shown to be effective for PSD, including antidepressants, non-drug
The primary objective of the study is to evaluate the safety of HPC, Cord Blood (administered via intravenous infusion and intrathecal injection, or intravenous infusion in conjunction with mannitol for subjects unable to tolerate intrathecal injection) in subjects with acute ischemic stroke. The
1. Consent patients that have been referred to the Noninvasive Brain Stimulation Clinic at the University of Iowa.
2. Patients will complete the following before any treatments occur: Tinnitus Intake Questionnaire, Tinnitus Functional Index, Tinnitus Questionnaires, Iowa Tinnitus Primary Function,
The overarching goal of this Discovery Proposal is to evaluate neural activity during unipedal and bipedal movement in a cohort of healthy individuals (Aim 1).
The rigor and reproducibility will be evaluated by comparing the results of 1) active movement -Bipedal with 2) active movement -unipedal 4
Name of investigational treatment: Influenza vaccine (VaxigripTetra, Sanofi Pasteur MSD).
Title of study: Influenza vaccination After Myocardial Infarction (IAMI trial).
Study centers: Up to 35 centers in Sweden, Denmark, Norway, Scotland, Czech Rebublic, Latvia and Bangladesh.
Planned study period:
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety of a single, intravenous infusion of banked allogeneic umbilical cord blood in subjects within 3-10 days following an acute ischemic stroke. The subjects will not be pre-treated with immunosuppressive agents. The primary objective is safety
Anemia and transfusion are independent predictors of morbidity and mortality in the cardiac surgical patient population. Even so, active preoperative anemia management is not currently the standard of care at our institution. Cost associated with erythrocyte transfusions at University of Texas
Introduction:
The ability to manipulate body core temperatures quickly and effectively would impact a number of fields, with truly transformative potential. By far the best way to effect a change in body temperature is perfusion with cooled or warmed blood because the vasculature of the human body
The overwhelming majority of individuals who survive stroke have persistent upper extremity (UE) motor deficits which interfere with re-engagement in meaningful activities. While advances from neuroscience are spurring development of new rehabilitation strategies, the development of novel
Background:
Obesity is rapidly becoming one of the more serious public health challenges of this century, especially when considering that overweight and obese children are likely to stay obese into adulthood and are at a higher risk of developing chronic diseases at a younger age. The need for
ASPREE BACKGROUND:
ASPREE (ASPirin in Reducing Events in the Elderly) is a joint US/Australian research project aiming to determine whether low-dose aspirin increases healthy life-span, defined as survival free of dementia and disability. ASPREE began in 2010 and completed recruitment in 2014. It is
Objectives
Noninvasive stimulation of the central and peripheral nervous system, including transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS), transcranial direct and alternating current stimulation (tDCS and tACS, respectively) and cutaneous/peripheral nerve stimulation (C/PNS) alone or paired with TMS
Altitude affects human health and well being through its effect on tissue oxygenation by altering the partial pressure of oxygen in the gas that enters the lungs. The partial pressure of any component of a mixed gas is equal to the total pressure of the gas multiplied by the fraction of the gas that
