Evaluating Treatment of ADHD in Children with Down Syndrome
Recruiting
Children with Down syndrome (DS) have a 3-5 time greater prevalence of Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) than typically developing (TD) children. Despite this higher risk of ADHD, rates of stimulant medication treatment are disproportionately low in children with DS+ADHD, even though stimulants are the most efficacious ADHD treatment and are recommended by consensus guidelines for use in children with intellectual disability and ADHD. The investigators propose the first randomized... Read More

Effects of Transcranial Pulse Stimulation in Parkinson's Disease
Recruiting
The investigators are studying if Transcranial Pulse Stimulation (TPS) can improve various symptoms, including movement problems, thinking abilities, mood, fatigue, freezing while walking, voice quality, and issues with smell and taste. Previous research suggests TPS might help in Alzheimer's disease and could be helpful for Parkinson's as well. Investigators will check if TPS is safe, practical, and if it makes a noticeable difference in these symptoms compared to before the treatment.

Role of Caveolin 1 (CAV-1) Deficiency in Response to Glucagon-like Peptide 1 (GLP-1) Receptor Agonist Treatment
Recruiting
Obesity has become an important public health issue that leads to insulin resistance, diabetes, hypertension, dyslipidemia, and cardiovascular diseases. Although weight loss with calorie restriction and increased physical activity improve these complications, many people fail these lifestyle interventions. Therefore, pharmacologic agents have been used for weight management in addition to lifestyle interventions. In the past few years, one of the widely used pharmacologic agents for weight manag...
