Effects of Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation Associated With Cognitive Training in Alzheimer's Disease
Cognitive training (TCog) has similarly shown excellent results in the treatment of cognitive deficits due to AD. Thus, the present study aims to investigate when (before, during or after) the tDCS should be applied to potentiate the effects of TCog in people with AD by comparing four protocols of application …

Tofacitinib for Immune Skin Conditions in Down Syndrome
People with Down syndrome (DS) display widespread immune dysregulation, including several immune skin conditions. This study hypothesizes that pharmacological inhibition of the increased interferon (IFN) signaling seen in DS is safe and could improve associated skin conditions. The study evaluates the safety and efficacy treatment with Tofacitinib, an FDA-approved drug …

Temporal Disorders in Left and Right Brain-Damaged Patients
Time is an important function that permeates our everyday activities but it has been so far significantly under-investigated in neurological patients. For instance, it is known that right brain damaged (RBD) patients with spatial attentional deficit (neglect) are impaired in both the ability to estimate the duration of an event …

A Study of Cognitive Changes in Patients Receiving Brain Radiation
Cranial radiation therapy (RT), commonly used to treat benign and malignant brain tumors, can lead to cognitive impairments in domains not related to neuroanatomic structures directly impacted by the tumor. The study will prospectively enroll 58 patients with benign and low-grade brain tumors who will undergo partial brain RT, with …

Cardiac Output, Cerebral Perfusion and Cognition in Patients With Severe Aortic Valve Stenosis Undergoing Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation (CAPITA)
Rationale: Cardiovascular disease and cognitive diseases are closely related. Cognitive impairment is common (21-39%) among patients with severe aortic valve stenosis. The proof-of-concept CP-TAVI study showed that increased cardiac output following transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) was associated with increased cerebral blood flow.
