ClinConnect Summary

This clinical trial, titled "Biomarkers Related to PSCI: An fNIRS Study," is focused on understanding how stroke affects thinking and memory, which is known as cognitive impairment. The researchers are using a special technique called fNIRS to find markers in the brain that could help identify changes in cognition after a stroke. This study is currently looking for participants, including both stroke patients and healthy individuals aged 18 to 80.

To be eligible, stroke patients need to have a confirmed stroke diagnosis through imaging tests like CT scans or MRIs and must be able to complete cognitive tasks. Healthy participants should not have any brain abnormalities and must also be able to complete these tasks. During the trial, participants will undergo tests to assess their brain function and cognitive abilities. It's important to note that individuals with serious health issues, mental illnesses, or certain medical conditions, such as metal implants, cannot participate. Overall, this study aims to improve our understanding of how stroke impacts thinking, which could lead to better care for future patients.
