(2) In MA patients with PFO who undergo clinically indicated percutaneous PFO closure, do these multimodal brain function measures change over time after closure (pre-procedure vs 1, 6, and 12 months), and are such changes accompanied by improvement in migraine burden, quality of life, and mood\u002Fanxiety symptoms? The protocol includes two phases. In Phase 1 (cross-sectional comparison), two groups are evaluated at baseline: MA with PFO (PFO+\u002FMA+) and MA without PFO (PFO-\u002FMA+). Participants complete hdEEG and rs-fMRI to characterize whole-brain power spectral density and connectivity, and undergo MATRICS Consensus Cognitive Battery (MCCB) testing and validated symptom\u002Fpsychological assessments (e.g., MIDAS, MSQ v2.1, PHQ-9, GAD-7, RoPE). In Phase 2 (prospective self-controlled cohort), eligible PFO+\u002FMA+ participants who proceed to percutaneous PFO closure as part of routine clinical care are followed longitudinally with repeated multimodal assessments at pre-closure baseline and post-closure 1, 6, and 12 months. This phase evaluates within-person trajectories of resting-state brain function (hdEEG, rs-fMRI) and cognition\u002Femotion measures, together with migraine diary-based outcomes and patient-reported quality of life\u002Fdisability and mood\u002Fanxiety scales. Key eligibility focuses on adults aged 18-65 years with ICHD-3-defined migraine with aura and a history of frequent migraine (≥4 migraine days\u002Fmonth during screening) despite prior preventive therapy trials; the PFO group requires echocardiographic confirmation of PFO with at least moderate right-to-left shunt (e.g., during Valsalva on contrast TEE), consistent with the study's focus on clinically meaningful shunt physiology.\n\nThe primary endpoints are multimodal brain function and cognition measures. In Phase 1, the main outcomes include between-group differences in MCCB composite score, rs-fMRI whole-brain functional connectivity strength, and hdEEG spectral power across frequency bands (delta\u002Ftheta\u002Falpha\u002Fbeta\u002Fgamma) and theta-band connectivity quantified by whole-brain phase-lag index (PLI). In Phase 2, the primary outcome is the 12-month post-closure change in these multimodal resting-state brain function measures, reflecting dynamic neural recovery or reorganization after PFO closure.\n\nSecondary outcomes include changes in migraine clinical metrics (monthly migraine days, attack frequency and duration, and complete remission rate), migraine-specific quality of life (MSQ v2.1), disability (MIDAS), and depression\u002Fanxiety symptom scores (PHQ-9 and GAD-7) over follow-up. Safety outcomes include adverse events potentially related to the closure procedure and routine post-procedural anti-thrombotic therapy, captured throughout follow-up.",[189,190,34,191],"PFO","Cognitive","Migraine","NOT_YET_RECRUITING","2026-01-06",{"date":167,"type":44},{"date":196,"type":21},"2026-02-01",{"date":198,"type":21},"2029-06-30",{"name":200,"class":51},"Second Xiangya Hospital of Central South University",{"id":202,"slug":203,"hasResults":11,"nctId":204,"briefTitle":205,"officialTitle":206,"acronym":4,"eligibilityCriteria":207,"healthyVolunteers":11,"sex":16,"minAge":208,"maxAge":209,"enrollmentInfo":210,"targetDuration":4,"studyType":64,"phases":212,"briefSummary":214,"conditions":215,"keywords":4,"overallStatus":192,"whyStopped":4,"lastUpdateSubmitDate":216,"lastUpdatePostDateStruct":217,"startDateStruct":219,"completionDateStruct":221,"leadSponsor":223,"locationsCount":4},"100614830","phase-3-phenolic-complex-k110-42-therapy-on-cognitive-functions-in-down-children-100614830","NCT07284693","Phenolic Complex k110-42 Therapy on Cognitive Functions in Down Children","Clinical Study Evaluating the Efficacy of Phenolic Complex k110-42 Therapy on Cognitive Functions of Children With Down Syndrome","Inclusion Criteria:\n\n* Children diagnosed with Down syndrome (Non disjunction Trisomy 21) based on genetic testing .\n* Age between 4-8 years old .\n* Down syndrome children presented with difficulties in attention or focus as reported by parents or based on prior clinical assessments.\n\nExclusion Criteria:\n\n* Parents' refusal.\n* Down syndrome children with other significant developmental or neurological disorders (e.g., autism spectrum disorder, epilepsy).\n* Patients with any chronic illness as liver or renal dysfunction; inflammatory diseases; autoimmune disease; cancer, acute cardiovascular event, eating disorders (anorexia, bulimia) or gastrointestinal disorders.\n* Presence of hypersensitivity to spearmint or any components of Neumentix (Neumentix may increase kidney or liver damage if used in large amounts).\n* Use of stimulant ADHD medication or cognitive-enhancing supplements .\n* IQ test less than 55%.\n* Patients with hypothyroidism.","4 Years","8 Years",{"count":211,"type":21},108,[213],"PHASE3","The goal of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of phenolic complex k110-42 on cognitive function of children with Down syndrome",[34],"2025-12-14",{"date":218,"type":44},"2025-12-16",{"date":220,"type":21},"2026-01",{"date":222,"type":21},"2026-12",{"name":224,"class":51},"Mansoura University",{"id":226,"slug":227,"hasResults":11,"nctId":228,"briefTitle":229,"officialTitle":230,"acronym":4,"eligibilityCriteria":231,"healthyVolunteers":94,"sex":16,"minAge":17,"maxAge":4,"enrollmentInfo":232,"targetDuration":4,"studyType":64,"phases":234,"briefSummary":235,"conditions":236,"keywords":4,"overallStatus":192,"whyStopped":4,"lastUpdateSubmitDate":240,"lastUpdatePostDateStruct":241,"startDateStruct":243,"completionDateStruct":245,"leadSponsor":247,"locationsCount":52},"100570498","evaluation-of-a-home-based-aomi-intervention-on-cognitive-function-and-depression-among-adults-with-sci-100570498","NCT06708026","Evaluation of a Home-based AOMI Intervention on Cognitive Function and Depression Among Adults with SCI","Evaluation of a Home-based Action Observation and Motor Imagery Intervention on Cognitive Function and Depression Among Adults with Spinal Cord Injury: a Pilot Randomized Controlled Trial","Inclusion Criteria:\n\n* Diagnosis of SCI according to the International Standards for the Neurological Classification of SCI with confirmation by computed tomography\u002Fmagnetic resonance imaging;\n* At least 18 years old;\n* With stable spinal systems and good vital signs, and currently living in the community and having SCI for more than 6 months;\n* No contraindications to undergoing MRI examination (e.g., no metal or electronic devices in the body, not pregnant, and absence of claustrophobia);\n* Having a mobile Internet terminal (usually a smartphone) and proficient independent or caregiver-assisted usage;\n* Able to communicate in Cantonese and to provide informed consent.\n\nExclusion Criteria:\n\n* Having severe problems in hearing, verbal communication, or vision;\n* Engaged in ongoing psychotherapy or any other physiotherapy\u002F exercise\u002F relaxation interventions;\n* Physically active for more than 150 minutes moderate-intensity exercise per week;\n* Diagnosis of mental disorders or substance misuse;\n* With severe cognitive impairment (Hong Kong Montreal Cognitive Assessment (HK-MoCA) score ≤ 18.",{"count":233,"type":21},46,[128],"The investigators propose a pilot randomized clinical trial to determine if adults with spinal cord injury (SCI) show improved cognitive function and depression following home-based Action Observation and Motor Imagery (AOMI) training.

These young patients described difficulties making friends, understanding others' emotions and intentions, and controlling their own emotions. Difficulties in these domains could led to social withdrawal, to reduced social skills and could have a significant impact on self esteem and mental health as well as on long-term academic and social functioning in affected individuals. The purpose of this project is to identify functional and dysfunctional cognitive and socio-cognitive abilities in these young patients which could account social difficulties described by some of them and their family. To this end, 35 girls with TS and 35 girls with isolated growth hormone deficiency and normal cerebral MRI will be recruited. Subjects will be 7 to 16 years and 11 months of age. Socio-cognitive and cognitive functions will be assessed with neuropsychological and experimental tasks.
