Accessing Care, Clinical Trials and Screening for Underserved Children and Adults With Type 1 Diabetes (ACCESS-T1D)
The purpose of this study is to identify people with T1D or celiac disease (CD) early in the course of their disease and to improve the methods of screening for these diseases.
Celiac Disease and Quality of Life in Children and Adolescents (CeliaQLife)
Celiac disease is a disorder commonly diagnosed during childhood. The treatment is a lifelong gluten-free diet. Both the condition and the diet can influence the children's physical and emotional well-being.The main goal of this observational study is to learn about nutritional status in a group of children with celiac disease …
Proteinopathies Expression in Skin of Neurodegenerative Disorders
The goal of this observational study is to compare the aggregation pattern of proteinopathies (alpha-synuclein, amyloid-beta, phosphorylated tau and transactive response DNA -binding protein 43 [TDP43]) in skin biopsies of patients with a neurodegenerative disease like Alzheimer's disease, frontotemporal lobe dementia, Parkinson's disease, atypical Parkinsonism, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis or normal …
Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis and the Innate Immune System
Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) is an aggressive, deadly disease. ALS leads to destruction of the neural pathways which control the conscious movements of the muscles. This destruction leads to muscular dystrophy with increasing difficulties in moving, breathing, swallowing, and speaking. In the last phase of an ALS patient's life it …
Cardiac Amyloid Deposits and Heart Dysfunction in Alzheimer's Disease
This study seeks to explore the possible common pathogenesis of both cardiac amyloidosis and Alzheimer's disease, which can both be associated with amyloid deposits. Using Positron Emission Tomography (PET) scans with amyloid tracers - a conventional tool for non-invasively imaging amyloid deposits in Alzheimer's disease - the research will extend …
Validation of Czech Language Versions of Questionnaires for ALS Patients' Functional Status and Biomarker Long-term Follow-up
Questionnaires and scales used to assess the clinical status and quality of life of patients with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) are an important tool to monitor the disease progression and current needs of patients. The use of these tools (and in particular their combination) allows to cover the whole spectrum …
Translating Single-cell Vulnerability Into Novel ALS Biomarkers and Therapeutic Targets: Towards a Liquid Nerve Biopsy
The progress of ALS research and clinical practice is hampered by lack of effective biomarkers to monitor disease onset and progression. In response to this urgent need, we will integrate single-cell system biology approaches, histopathological and clinical data from precious human nerve biopsies collected from living ALS patients during the …
Biomarkers in Different Types of Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) Patients Being Treated With Edaravone
This study is being conducted to help the investigators better understand how the new FDA approved medication Edaravone (also known as Radicava) works in subsets of patients with ALS. The investigators are also trying to understand if there are specific ALS patients, with different presentations of ALS, who might benefit …
Multicenter ALS Imaging Study
This is a multi-site study of ALS participants and healthy controls who will undergo brain and cervical spine MRIs and NfL blood testing at up-to 4 time points over the course of a year. The primary goal is to identify objective biomarkers of disease progression that are biologically relevant, linearly …
Holter of Movement in Patients With Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis.
ActiALS is a multicentric academic study. Patients with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) may be included on a voluntary basis. The investigators plan to include a group of approximately 30 patients with ALS.The investigators have planned to assess patient every three months for a year. After each visit, participants will wear …
