About this study

Cerebral hemodynamic compromise from internal carotid artery stenosis may be a cause of vascular cognitive impairment that is amenable to treatment by revascularization. The effect of carotid artery stent on evoked cerebral blood oxygenation and neurocognitive functioning will be evaluated by functional near-infrared spectroscopy. Carotid artery stent could benefit cerebral blood oxygenation after stent and improving neurocognitive functioning after 6 months.

Read the detailed description

Patients with high grade internal carotid artery stenosis intended to carotid artery stent are brought to this study. Global cognitive function and evoked cerebral blood oxygenation are evaluated before and after stent, followed up at 6 months later. Mini-Mental State Examination(MMSE) and Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA) are used for the global cognitive test. Evoked cerebral blood oxygenation is evaluated using functional near-infrared spectroscopy(fNIRS) through performing mental task( N-back task, Go/no go task, and verbal fluency task ). All the patients from different centers are conducted the test at the only main center by one doctor. The parameter of fNIRS and score of cognitive test of each patient are compared before and after stent.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • MMSE, MoCA, functional near-infrared spectroscopyDiagnostic test

    MMSE and MoCA are used for cognitive test before carotid artery stent implant and 6 months later. Cerebral blood oxygenation is evaluated by functional near-infrared spectroscopy under the mental task before and after revascularization within one week, 6 months later respectively.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Change of cognitive function score

    Mini-mental State Examination (0-30 points), the higher the score, the better the cognitive function

    Measured: MMSE score at baseline, 6 months after revascularization. Change of the score is calculated.

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Parameter of evoked cerebral blood oxygenation

    Means of HbO detected by functional near-infrared spectroscopy

    Measured: Evoked cerebral blood oxygenation evaluated after stent immediately, 6 months later, compared with that at baseline.

  2. Parameter of evoked cerebral blood oxygenation

    Skewness of HbO detected by functional near-infrared spectroscopy

    Measured: Evoked cerebral blood oxygenation evaluated after stent immediately, 6 months later, compared with that at baseline.

  3. Parameter of evoked cerebral blood oxygenation

    kurtosis of HbO detected by functional near-infrared spectroscopy

    Measured: Evoked cerebral blood oxygenation evaluated after stent immediately, 6 months later, compared with that at baseline.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Carotid Artery Stenosis, run by Shanghai Jiao Tong University Affiliated Sixth People's Hospital at 1 site in China.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 4 inclusion and 5 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 29 May 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in China. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Jiangshan Deng, PhD (862164369181, johnson120@126.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Change of cognitive function score (time frame: MMSE score at baseline, 6 months after revascularization. Change of the score is calculated.). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 29 May 2024.
