Role of Neurotransmission and Functional CNS Networks in Spasmodic Dysphonia - Full Tex... - 0 views

  •  
    Study will examine how the brain controls speech in patients with spasmodic dysphonia, a voice disorder that involves involuntary spasms of muscles in the larynx (voice box), causing breaks in speech. Although the causes of spasmodic dysphonia are unknown, recent studies found changes in brain function in patients with the disorder that may play a role in its development.

  •  
    National Institutes of Halth Clinic Center study to: 1) characterize and compare lower extremity motor coordination in children with cerebral palsy (CP) across mobility levels and to children without CP; and 2) evaluate the effects of two home-based exercise programs on motor coordination, as well as other physical, functional and neurological outcomes in children with CP

Metabolic Abnormalities in Children With Epilepsy - 0 views

  •  
    Completed study sponsored by NINDS designed to use positron emission tomography to measure brain energy use. Positron Emission Tomography (PET) is a technique used to investigate the functional activity of the brain. The PET technique allows doctors to study the normal processes of the brain (central nervous system) of normal individuals and patients with neurologic illnesses without physical / structural damage to the brain.

Mayo Clinical Trial - Prospective Seizure Frequency Clinical Investigation - 0 views

  •  
    Mayo research study to determine if there are enough patients with hard to treat epilepsy that might qualify for a future study of a medical device that is being developed to treat epilepsy. Participants will not be testing the device during this study. The study doctor will be assessing seizure type(s) and determine how frequently they occur, and to verify if antiseizure medications can be held constant for a period of 12 weeks.

Automated Response to Spontaneous Epileptiform Activity Using the External Responsive N... - 0 views

  •  
    Study being conducted to learn about the effects (both good and bad) of a brain stimulating device known as the External Responsive Neurostimulating System. This is an investigational device that was designed to detect seizure activity and give an electrical stimulation to the brain to try to stop it

Pilot Study of Bumetanide for Newborn Seizures - 0 views

  •  
    Study to obtain pharmacokinetic and safety data of bumetanide in newborns with refractory seizures. The overall hypothesis is that bumetanide, added to conventional antiepileptic (antiseizure) medications, will be a safe and well tolerated medication, compared with conventional antiepileptic drugs alone.

Effect of Protein Composition on Gastric Emptying - 1 views

  •  
    Planned future study investigating the protein composition of nutrition may affect the rate of gastric emptying and gastric pysiology. This is espesially important in children with neurologic impariment, who commonly rely on tube feedings, have feeding proThe intent is to find out whether 4 different protein sources affect the rate of gastric emptying and electrofysiology in this group of children

Neurobiology of Psychogenic Movement Disorder and Non-Epileptic Seizures - 0 views

  •  
    This study is part of a series of studies that will explore how the mind and the brain work to cause episodes of uncontrollable shaking in people who have no known underlying brain or medical disorder. The study is conducted at NIH and at the Brown University Rhode Island Hospital.
