Clinical Applications of Advanced Ophthalmic Imaging
Recruiting
The purpose of this study is to determine the clinical application of advanced ophthalmic imaging devices such as optical coherence tomography (OCT), retinal function imager (RFI), slit-lamp biomicroscopy (SLB), PERG in diseased eyes and normal controls. There are two phases in this study. The first phase is an observational phase which studies the eye in various conditions. The second phase is an interventional phase which studies the changes in the eyes after taking an over-the-counter medica... Read More

Cultural Adaptation of a Behavioral Intervention for Latino Caregivers
Recruiting
The overall objectives of the proposed research are to: (i) develop a prototype of a smartphone application (app) that can deliver culturally adapted STAR-C training to Latino caregivers, and (ii) understand the extent to which a STAR-C app is acceptable and potentially effective among Latino caregivers. Achieving these objectives will lay the groundwork for a future full-scale trial to test the STAR-C app with Latino caregivers. This study aims to: Adapt the STAR-C training to increase cultura...

Cognitive Outcomes of Brain Stimulation As a Later-in-Life Treatment
Recruiting
This is a pilot study being done to attempt to improve episodic memory problems in persons with mild cognitive impairment (MCI) or dementia. The pre-supplemental motor area (preSMA) and dorsal anterior cingulate cortex (dACC) have been shown to play a role in episodic memory and language retrieval. Prior studies have suggested that neurostimulation targeting this region can improve episodic memory and word recall. The purpose of this study is to examine the efficacy of high-definition transcrani... Read More

Alzheimer's Prevention Registry: A Program to Accelerate Enrollment Into Studies
Recruiting
The Alzheimer's Prevention Registry (www.endALZnow.org) will collect contact and demographic information on individuals. The objective is to provide information the latest news and advances in Alzheimer's prevention research, and to inform enrollees about research studies in their community. Enrolled individuals will receive regular email communications. As research studies become available, individuals will be notified via email with information as to how proceed should they be interested. Regi... Read More

Priorities Aligned Deprescribing for Persons Living With Dementia and Their Caregiver
Recruiting
The purpose of this study is to compare patient priorities care (PPC) and usual care (UC) patients to identify differences in post-encounter medication changes, treatment burden (TBQ), and shared decision making in Older Patient Assessment of Chronic Illness Care (OPACIC), to understand PPC participant's sense-making and communication approaches related to deprescribing decisions in relation to the identified health priorities and to identify and categorize adverse drug withdrawal events (ADWEs)

New IDEAS: Imaging Dementia-Evidence for Amyloid Scanning Study
Recruiting
New IDEAS is an observational, open-label, longitudinal cohort study designed to address the requirements of the CED provisions of the NCD on beta-amyloid PET. Building on the initial Imaging Dementia-Evidence for Amyloid Scanning (IDEAS) study, New IDEAS will evaluate the association between amyloid PET and patient-centered outcomes in an expanded and more ethnoracially and clinically diverse group of Medicare participants presenting with cognitive impairment.

Cognitive Reserve and Response to Speech-Language Intervention in Bilingual Speakers With Primary Progressive Aphasia
Recruiting
Difficulties with speech and language are the first and most notable symptoms of primary progressive aphasia (PPA). While there is evidence that demonstrates positive effects of speech-language treatment for individuals with PPA who only speak one language (monolinguals), there is a significant need for investigating the effects of treatment that is optimized for bilingual speakers with PPA. This stage 2 efficacy clinical trial seeks to establish the effects of culturally and linguistically tail... Read More
