Spinal Cord Injury
Following spinal cord injury, most men are infertile and require medical assistance to father children. The conditions that contribute to their infertility are erectile dysfunction, ejaculatory dysfunction, and semen abnormalities. The Miami Project Male Fertility Program is a research study designed to understand and improve impairments to male fertility resulting from spinal cord injury.
Spinal Cord Injuries
Acute intermittent hypoxia (AIH) involves brief (1 min), repeated episodes (\~15) of breathing low oxygen air to stimulate spinal neuroplasticity. Animal and human studies show that AIH improves motor function after spinal cord injury, particularly with slightly increased carbon dioxide (hypercapnic AIH; AIHH) and task-specific training. Using a double blind cross-over design, the study will test whether AIHH improves breathing more than AIH and whether specific genetic variations are related to individuals' intervention responses.
Neurologic Disorders · Nervous System Diseases · Neurodegenerative Diseases
This is a human clinical study involving the isolation of autologous bone marrow derived stem cells (BMSC) and transfer to the vascular system and inferior 1/3 of the nasal passages in order to determine if such a treatment will provide improvement in neurologic function for patients with certain neurologic conditions. http://mdstemcells.com/nest/
Spinal Cord Injuries
The purpose of this study is to determine how combining bouts of low oxygen, transcutaneous spinal cord stimulation, and walking training may improve walking function for people with chronic spinal cord injury of different age groups.
Traumatic Spinal Cord Injuries
SpiCoH is a phase IIa, single center, open-label, clinical trial of intermittent normobaric hyperoxia in mechanically ventilated patients with traumatic cervical and/or thoracic spinal cord injury.
Pain · Inflammatory Response
The purposes of the study are to quantify and compare relationships among acute changes in inflammatory markers and evoked pain sensitivity after a high-fat meal (HFM) challenge, compared to a moderate-fat meal challenge, and explore the influence of body composition on these responses, in individuals with chronic spinal cord injury
SCI - Spinal Cord Injury
The purpose of this research is to determine the effects of food on brain and stomach activity in persons with and without spinal cord injury (SCI).
Infertility, Male
This is a study of infertility which often occurs in men with spinal cord injury. Most men with spinal cord injury have a normal sperm count but abnormally low sperm motility - which means that the sperm does not swim well. This study will determine if a medicine given by mouth will improve sperm motility in men with spinal cord injuries. The medicine is called probenecid.
Brachial Plexus Injury
The purpose of this study is to see how much pain intensity is affected by high frequency spinal cord stimulation therapy in individuals with serious brachial plexus injury.
Tetraplegia/Tetraparesis · Quadriplegia · Cervical Spinal Cord Injury
The PRIME Study is a first-in-human early feasibility study to evaluate the initial clinical safety and device functionality of the Neuralink N1 Implant and R1 Robot device designs in participants with tetraparesis or tetraplegia. The N1 Implant is a skull-mounted, wireless, rechargeable implant connected to electrode threads that are implanted in the brain by the R1 Robot, a robotic electrode thread inserter.
Spinal Cord Injury · Spinal Cord Injuries · Trauma, Nervous System
This pilot study will determine the feasibility of implementing a combinatory rehabilitation strategy involving testosterone replacement therapy (TRT) with locomotor training (LT; walking on a treadmill with assistance and overground walking) in men with testosterone deficiency and walking dysfunction after incomplete or complete spinal cord injury. The investigators hypothesize that LT+TRT treatment will improve muscle size and bone mineral density in men with low T and ambulatory dysfunction after incomplete or complete SCI, along with muscle fundtion and walking recovery in men with T low and ambulatory dysfunction ater incomplete SCI.
Cervical Spinal Cord Injury · Tetraplegia
The goal of this observational study is to determine if nerve transfer surgeries improve upper extremity function and quality of life in patients with a high level cervical spinal cord injury. Participants will: * undergo standard of care pre- and post-op testing and study exams * complete pre- and post-questionnaires * undergo standard of care nerve transfer surgeries * follow-up with surgeon at 6/12/18/24/36 and potentially at 48 months * attend therapy at local therapist for up to 2 years postop.
Neurogenic Detrusor Overactivity
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, efficacy, and PK of Vibegron in pediatric participants with NDO who are regularly using CIC
Spinal Cord Injury, Acute
This study is a prospective multi-center trial designed to determine the safety profile and efficacy of modest (33ºC) intravascular hypothermia following acute cervical (C1 to C8) Spinal Cord Injury (SCI).
Spinal Cord Injuries · Blood Pressure Disorders
Empower BP is a pivotal, interventional, multicenter, prospective, randomized, controlled double-blinded study to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the ARC-IM System in managing symptomatic blood pressure instability in individuals with chronic SCI (\>1 year after SCI). The primary effectiveness outcome will be evaluated through subject-reported ADFSCI and seated blood pressure assessments at 3 months post-implant. Following a baseline screening period and the surgical implantation of the ARC-IM System, subjects will be randomized with a 2:1 ratio into an active or control arm for 3 months. All the subjects will undergo therapy activation sessions (into either Group 1: active intervention, or Group 2: intervention aimed to mimic the active intervention without the active component) within 21 days of the surgical implant and will then commence independent at-home use of ARC-IM Therapy. At the 3 Month timepoint, after all assessments are conducted, all subjects will transition to the open-label period in order to receive the active version of the ARC-IM System in an open-label fashion. All subjects will undergo therapy programming sessions following Month 3.
SCI - Spinal Cord Injury
The purpose of this research is to explore the effect of magnetic stimulation to activate the brain, electrical spinal cord stimulation to activate spinal cord, and electrical muscle stimulation used to activate upper limb (arms), lower limb (legs) and trunk (stomach) muscles in people with spinal cord injury (SCI) and able-bodied subjects (without SCI).
Spasticity as Sequela of Stroke · Spastic Cerebral Palsy · Spasticity, Muscle
A scientific study is being done to test a special treatment for people who have spasticity or tight muscles. This treatment is called "stereotactic radiosurgery dorsal rhizotomy." It uses very accurate beams of radiation to target certain nerves in the back to help loosen up the muscles. In this study, people are put into two groups by chance: one group gets the real treatment, and the other group gets a "fake" treatment that doesn't do anything. This fake treatment is called a "sham." Doing this helps make sure the study is fair and the results are true. After the people in the study get their treatment, the researchers will watch and see how they do. They will check if their muscles are less stiff and if they have any side effects. By looking at the results from both groups, the researchers can find out if the special treatment really helps people with spasticity. Patients who got the "fake" treatment will be eligible to receive the "real" treatment after 6 months.
Adjustment Disorder
The purpose of this study is to determine if treatment with a single dose of RE104 for Injection reduces depressive symptoms or depressive symptoms mixed with anxiety symptoms in participants with Adjustment Disorder due to cancer or other illnesses such as Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS), Multiple Sclerosis (MS), Parkinson's Disease (PD) or Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis (IPF) as compared to active-placebo.
