It develops when fatty deposits, known as plaques, build up in the arteries that supply blood to the heart. These plaques can gradually narrow the arteries and reduce blood flow, causing symptoms such as chest pain (angina). Sometimes a plaque can suddenly break open, causing a blood clot to form and block the artery. This can lead to a heart attack and permanent damage to the heart muscle.\n\nAlthough much has been learned about coronary artery disease, important questions remain about why some plaques suddenly become unstable, how this affects blood flow through the smallest blood vessels of the heart, and why some patients develop more heart muscle damage than others.\n\nThe Oxford Acute Myocardial Infarction (OxAMI) research programme aims to improve our understanding of these processes. We will study both the disease within the coronary arteries (the \"upstream\" problem) and its effects on the heart muscle (the \"downstream\" damage). By examining these together, we hope to understand more clearly how changes in coronary plaques lead to heart injury and how this differs between patients.\n\nPatients undergoing procedures to investigate or treat coronary artery disease provide an important opportunity to study these processes. During coronary angioplasty (also called percutaneous coronary intervention or PCI), a narrow or blocked artery is opened, usually using a small balloon and a stent. This procedure can disturb the underlying plaque in a similar way to the plaque disruption that occurs during a heart attack. Where appropriate, we may therefore collect blood and material released from the plaque during these procedures. Blood may be collected from different locations in the circulation, allowing us to study substances released by the plaque and heart muscle. Material that would otherwise be discarded during treatment may also be collected for laboratory analysis.\n\nWe will use several established and newer techniques to examine the coronary arteries, the small blood vessels within the heart, and the heart muscle. These may include detailed imaging from inside the coronary arteries using intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) or optical coherence tomography (OCT). We may also measure blood pressure and flow within the coronary arteries to assess how well the small blood vessels supplying the heart are working.\n\nNon-invasive heart scans may include cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR\u002FMRI), cardiac computed tomography (CT) and echocardiography (ultrasound). These techniques can provide detailed information about the structure and function of the heart, blood supply to the heart muscle, areas of injury or permanent scarring, and changes that occur following a heart attack. In particular, MRI may help distinguish heart muscle that has been permanently damaged from muscle that is injured but could potentially recover after blood flow is restored. This may be especially important for patients who arrive at hospital several hours after their heart attack began.\n\nOther measurements may include electrocardiograms (ECGs), which record the electrical activity of the heart, and measurements of heart pressure, volume and function. Some participants may also have longer-term ECG monitoring.\n\nBlood and tissue samples may be analysed using a range of laboratory techniques. These studies will investigate inflammation, blood clotting and other biological processes involved in coronary artery disease and heart attacks. Newer laboratory methods may allow us to measure large numbers of proteins and small molecules in the blood. Material collected from plaques may also be examined under a microscope to identify its cells and structural components.\n\nWith additional consent, blood samples may be stored for genetic research. This could help us understand whether differences in people's genes influence their risk of coronary artery disease, their response to a heart attack, or the amount of heart damage that occurs.\n\nBy combining information about coronary plaques, blood flow through the heart's circulation, heart muscle injury, imaging, blood and tissue markers, and genetic factors, OxAMI aims to build a detailed picture of coronary artery disease and heart attacks. The programme will establish a carefully characterised group of research participants who may contribute to future OxAMI studies conducted under separate research protocols.\n\nUltimately, this research aims to identify better ways to predict, diagnose and understand coronary artery disease and heart attacks, and to identify new approaches that could improve treatment and outcomes for future patients.",[28,29,30,31,32,33,34,35,36],"Myocardial Injury","Atherosclerosis Cardiovascular Disease","Cardiac Imaging Techniques","Genetics","Thrombus","Trained Immunity","Biomarker Discovery","Coronary Physiology","Intravascular Imaging and Microvascular Obstruction","RECRUITING","2026-08-14",{"date":40,"type":41},"2026-08-19","ACTUAL",{"date":43,"type":41},"2012-05",{"date":45,"type":23},"2046-12",{"name":47,"class":48},"University of Oxford","OTHER",1,{"id":51,"slug":52,"hasResults":12,"nctId":53,"briefTitle":54,"officialTitle":55,"acronym":56,"eligibilityCriteria":57,"healthyVolunteers":17,"sex":18,"minAge":19,"maxAge":58,"enrollmentInfo":59,"targetDuration":4,"studyType":61,"phases":62,"briefSummary":64,"conditions":65,"keywords":67,"overallStatus":71,"whyStopped":4,"lastUpdateSubmitDate":38,"lastUpdatePostDateStruct":72,"startDateStruct":74,"completionDateStruct":76,"leadSponsor":78,"locationsCount":49},"100652111","phase-4-study-of-the-effects-of-atomoxetine-on-motivation-100652111","NCT07771595","Study of the Effects of Atomoxetine on Motivation","The Effects of Single Dose Atomoxetine on Motivation and Information Processing","STEAM","Inclusion Criteria:\n\n* Age: 18-45\n* Good physical health\n* Willing and able to give informed consent to participate in the study\n* Sufficient knowledge of English language to understand and complete the study tasks\n\nExclusion Criteria:\n\n* Current DSM-5 axis-I diagnosis (based on SCID results at screening) or history of a severe psychological disorder such as psychotic disorder, bipolar disorder, alcohol or substance abuse, or post-traumatic stress disorder\n* Previous or current extended period of persistent thoughts about ending one's life (longer than 5 days) or previous suicide attempt\n* Clinical diagnosis of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) or on the waiting list for assessment\n* Any intake of CNS-medication in the last 6 weeks (including as part of another study)\n* Any current intake of blood pressure or other heart medication, including beta blockers\n* Any current or previous medical condition or medication intake (last month) of any medication that, in the opinion of the study medic, may interfere with the safety of the participant or the scientific integrity of the study.\n* Severely underweight (BMI \\\u003C17) or very obese (BMI \\>40), OR otherwise deemed unsuitable for the study due to weight-related concerns at the discretion of the study medic\n* History of cardiovascular, cerebrovascular disease\n* Breathing or lung-related illnesses, significant liver or kidney problems, or severe gastrointestinal conditions.\n* High blood pressure (defined as repeated measurements of blood pressure where either the systolic or the diastolic blood pressure, or both, are at or above 140\u002F90 mmHg (https:\u002F\u002Fdoi.org\u002F10.1093\u002Feurheartj\u002Fehy339)\n* History of recurrent rashes or history of allergic reactions to relevant substances (atomoxetine, placebo treatment)\n* Significant physical (including visual and auditory) or language impairment that would make complying with the study protocol challenging.\n* History of palpitations with sudden onset and offset,\n* History of fainting on exertion or in response to fright or loud noise\n* Family history of sudden death in a first-degree relative under 40 years of age\n* Women: pregnancy (as determined by a urine test), breast-feeding\n* Significant consumption of caffeine (more than about 6 cups of strong coffee per day), nicotine (more than 5 cigarettes per day, or equivalent amount), alcohol (more than two pints of beer a day or equivalent)\n* Participation in a study that involves the use of medication in the past 3 months\n* Participation in another study using similar tasks in the past 6 months","45 Years",{"count":60,"type":23},40,"INTERVENTIONAL",[63],"PHASE4","This study investigates how increasing noradrenaline levels with atomoxetine affects motivation and information processing relevant to apathy.

Notably, the number and content of these EVs change in conditions like PET and GDM, suggesting they may play a role in the development of these complications.\n\nThis single-site, observational, laboratory study aims to investigate how these EVs contribute to maternal health and disease.

Several disease modifying therapies have been developed to treat Spinal muscular atrophy which have led to new disease trajectories . According to standard of care guidelines, exercise programs should be designed and monitored by a physical therapist and should include exercises to improve daily life activities. Exercises should be adapted to each patient and can be prescribed with an optimal frequency in various ways. However, of patients with Spinal muscular atrophy, only 20% reported access to endurance exercises and only 6% to mixed exercises. This incompliance to standard of care guidelines is due to manpower limitation and difficulties in engaging with young and sometimes highly disabled children. Our group has been pioneering in developing the UK at-home individualised rehabilitation program. To address this challenge, the Investigators propose the development of an innovative, virtual targeted rehabilitation platform specifically designed for young patients with Spinal muscular atrophy. This technology aims to provide a patient-centric, at-home rehabilitation solution, enabling parents\u002Fcaregivers to facilitate daily exercises in a more accessible and enjoyable manner. This technology would constitute the first of its kind in Spinal muscular atrophy field, involving the integration of augmented electromyography signals and soft robotic haptic devices into a gamified virtual reality environment.

These boys cannot make an important muscle protein called dystrophin. They become weaker as they get older and lose the ability to walk as teenagers. This is a life-limiting condition. There is no cure, but medicines are being made that could help these boys make dystrophin. These medicines are most likely to work best in toddlers, before their muscles become damaged.\n\nThere is no way of testing these medicines in children under four. In older children, it is possible to measure how well and how quickly a child can do movements like sitting up, standing up, and running. Unfortunately, these tests are not suitable for toddlers as they often struggle to listen and do what they are asked to do. Tiredness and mood can also affect their scores. Luckily, there is a new way of testing how well children move. They can wear special watch-like devices on their ankles that record information about their steps as they go about their normal lives. This is a good way of testing how well a child walks. It is now used to test medicines in children over four years old. Our aim is to test whether this device works well in children under four.\n\nThis study will invite 30 boys with DMD (and their parent\u002Fcaregiver) and 30 boys without DMD aged 1-3 years old from across the country to join the study. There are no hospital visits. Children will receive the watch-like devices to wear for three blocks of 28-days over six months during their normal daily activities. At the start and end of the study, a physiotherapist will visit the homes of boys with DMD. They will check their movements using other tests. The investigators will find out 1) if young boys are happy to wear the device, 2) how it compares to other tests, and 3) if it can detect changes in walking ability.\n\nThis study could give us a way to test medicines in younger children. Wearable devices could cut down the travel and stress of tests for boys and their families. Children with learning or behavioural difficulties, and children living far from research centres could now also take part in studies of new medicines.

As part of the project, the HIPPOCRATES Prospective Observational Study (HPOS) is a study of patients with psoriasis which is recruiting across Europe. The study is led by a research team at University of Oxford and supported by a team at University College Dublin. This current study aims to identify people with psoriasis who are at risk of developing psoriatic arthritis. Up to one-third of patients with psoriasis will develop a related arthritis causing inflammation in the joints and tendons. The investigators want to identify which patients will develop arthritis with the long-term and ambitious aim of trying to prevent the development of arthritis before it occurs. The HPOS study is currently recruiting\u002Fapproaching adults with psoriasis and asking study participants to complete questionnaires every 6 months via a dedicated study website. The questionnaires include a 'screening questionnaire' to try to identify arthritis.\n\nAdults with psoriasis but without a pre-existing diagnosis of PsA are currently being recruited via clinics, national and international patient support organisations including those under the umbrella of EUROPSO, and media campaigns. Participants are recruited across Europe in the following countries: UK, Ireland, Italy, France, Spain, Denmark, Germany, Belgium, Netherlands, Sweden, Portugal, Greece, Norway, Switzerland, Poland and Romania. The University of Oxford is the sponsor for the study across all countries, but local regulations will be followed, and local ethical approval has been sought for each different country. Data is requested from participants every 6 months and they will be prompted by email.\n\nLikewise, the iPROLEPSIS consortium is a Horizon Europe funded consortium investigating digital biomarkers in PsA. In 2024, the consortium launched a study recruiting 600 patients with PsA across 4 counties, utilising digital biomarkers to identify disease flares. This includes the use of smartwatches, a mobile phone app and active video tests. This will allow us to develop algorithms to identify active disease.\n\nSimilar approaches are proposed for a study called the Inflammation Digital Biomarkers Study (IDBV) which will try to identify the onset of PsA in people living with psoriasis. Patients in HPOS who have given consent to be contacted about additional studies, will be offered the opportunity to join this study. They will complete an additional consent form and will download the miPROLEPSIS lite app to their mobile phone.\n\nThe Study app will passively collect data from the user's phone; participants do not need to perform any specific tasks apart from some initial configuration steps like logging in and connecting their wearables (Connecting a wearable is optional).\n\nThe investigators intend to run IDBV as a sub-study in HPOS and invite participants enrolled into the HPOS study who do not have a diagnosis of PsA.",[476,477],"Psoriatic Arthritis","Psoriasis (PsO)","2026-05-20",{"date":480,"type":41},"2026-05-22",{"date":357,"type":23},{"date":125,"type":23},{"name":47,"class":48},{"id":485,"slug":486,"hasResults":12,"nctId":487,"briefTitle":488,"officialTitle":489,"acronym":490,"eligibilityCriteria":491,"healthyVolunteers":12,"sex":265,"minAge":58,"maxAge":135,"enrollmentInfo":492,"targetDuration":4,"studyType":61,"phases":494,"briefSummary":495,"conditions":496,"keywords":501,"overallStatus":37,"whyStopped":4,"lastUpdateSubmitDate":512,"lastUpdatePostDateStruct":513,"startDateStruct":515,"completionDateStruct":517,"leadSponsor":519,"locationsCount":49},"100641020","probiotic-intake-and-perimenopausal-psychological-assessments-100641020","NCT07590999","Probiotic Intake and Perimenopausal Psychological Assessments","The Effects of a Probiotic on Emotional Processing, Cognition, and the Gut Microbiome in Perimenopausal Women","PIPPA","Inclusion Criteria:\n\n* Female at birth\n* You are aged 45-60 years and in perimenopause (determined by changes in menstrual bleeding patterns (such as changes in cycle length of 7 days or longer in either direction from what is normal for you), AND vasomotor symptoms (e.g., hot flushes and sweats) AND mild to moderate mood or cognitive disturbances, or joint and muscle pain over the previous 12 months)\n* You are willing and able to give informed consent for participation in the study\n* You are sufficiently fluent in English to understand and complete tasks\n* You are at least 12 months post-natal\n* Willing to withhold from having grapefruit juice\n\nExclusion Criteria:\n\n* Currently receive or seek treatment for any mental health condition\n* Have a BMI \\>=30 OR \\\u003C=18.5\n* Have lost or gained more than 10% of body weight in a short period (e.g., 6 months), as this can affect mood and cognition\n* Currently using hormonal contraception or have used hormonal contraception in the last 6 months\n* Have had gender reassignment surgery or gender-affirming hormone therapy\n* Had a head injury causing concussion or unconsciousness in the past 6 months\n* Participated in other studies that may influence mood, cognition, or gut health in the last three months\n* Are currently diagnosed with and\u002For treated for psychiatric or neurological disorders\n* Are on perimenopausal hormone replacement therapy (HRT) (e.g., estrogen, progesterone, testosterone) or other hormone-modulating medications (e.g., GLP-1 agonists, thyroxine replacement), as these can impact mood and cognitive functions\n* Currently use statins or have used statins in the last 6 months, as these may impact mood and cognitive functions\n* Participated in any other study with the same tasks in the last year\n* Currently use medications that influence cognition or mood, such as antidepressants, anxiolytics, antipsychotics, stimulants, mood-stabilizers, or cognitive-enhancing drugs\n* Have chronic or severe gastrointestinal diseases (e.g., inflammatory bowel disease, Crohn's disease, celiac disease, or severe acid reflux;

Tremor is a prevalent symptom that significantly impacts physical function and social participation. ET affects approximately 1% of the global population and worsens with age, while PD tremor is often less responsive to conventional dopaminergic therapy. Current treatments, including oral medications (propranolol, primidone), anticholinergics, and deep brain stimulation (DBS), are either limited by efficacy, side effects, or invasiveness. These challenges highlight the need for alternative, less invasive therapeutic options.\n\nThe rationale for the study is based on the principle of phase-dependent neural modulation. Just as a swing's amplitude can be increased or decreased depending on when it is pushed, neural oscillations underlying tremor can theoretically be suppressed by precisely timed stimulation. Previous studies have shown that TMS over the motor cortex at tremor frequency (\\~5 Hz) produces modest improvements in PD rest tremor. This study aims to enhance these effects by targeting amplitude-suppressing phases in the tremor cycle, potentially leading to greater and cumulative tremor reduction.\n\nThe study has two components:\n\nStudy 1 (Primary Objective): Determine whether phase-locked TMS can acutely reduce tremor. Participants (20 ET, 20 PD) will undergo two visits where tremor is recorded via inertial measurement units (IMUs) and surface EMG. TMS will be delivered over the motor cortex at or below active motor threshold, synchronized to the participant's tremor phase. The primary outcome is the change in tremor power during stimulation compared to no stimulation, measured objectively via IMU signals.\n\nStudy 2 (Secondary Objective): Examine whether stimulation at the maximal tremor-suppressing phase, identified in Study 1, produces a larger reduction in tremor amplitude than stimulation at the minimal suppressing phase or sham stimulation. This will involve three additional sessions per participant, randomized for order, with outcomes assessed via IMU tremor power and participant-reported measures including the Quality of Life in Essential Tremor Questionnaire (QUEST), TETRAS, and Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale (UPDRS).\n\nStudy Design and Procedures: The design is a within-subject crossover. Participants may withhold tremor medications during visits to reduce confounding effects. EMG electrodes and IMU sensors will record tremor, while a figure-of-eight TMS coil will deliver phase-locked pulses. Phase-specific stimulation trains are applied for 3 seconds at intervals, with randomized order across multiple blocks. Study sessions last under two hours, including setup and post-stimulation recordings.\n\nParticipants are recruited via self-referral or through DeNDRoN, screened for eligibility, and provide informed consent. Inclusion criteria require symptomatic ET or PD tremor, age ≥18, and ability to consent. Exclusion criteria include epilepsy, psychiatric illness, metal implants, pacemakers, or other conditions contraindicating TMS. Participants may withdraw at any time without penalty.\n\nSafety Measures: TMS and IMU recordings are low-risk, with potential minor effects including scalp tapping sensations, muscle twitches, or mild headaches, which are managed through monitoring and coil adjustment. Serious adverse events are defined, and procedures for reporting and auditing are established in accordance with UK regulations and Good Clinical Practice.\n\nData Analysis: Tremor power will be quantified from IMU recordings using spectral analysis. Statistical comparisons between stimulation conditions and baseline will be conducted using paired t-tests or Wilcoxon tests. The study will employ validated software for randomization and analysis (SPSS, Matlab). Data will be pseudo-anonymized, securely stored, and archived for long-term research use.\n\nEthical Considerations: The study follows the Declaration of Helsinki, Good Clinical Practice, and institutional approvals. Participants' privacy and data protection are ensured under GDPR standards. There are no commercial conflicts of interest, and participants are reimbursed for travel expenses.\n\nIn summary, this research aims to evaluate the efficacy of phase-locked TMS as a non-invasive, targeted interventionfor tremor in ET and PD. By systematically stimulating the motor cortex at tremor-specific phases, the study seeks to establish a foundation for future minimally invasive treatments that could complement or replace existing pharmacological and surgical options.",[594,595],"Essential Tremor","Parkinson's Disease (PD)",[597],"tremor",{"date":599,"type":41},"2026-05-07",{"date":601,"type":41},"2024-01-01",{"date":603,"type":23},"2028-01-01",{"name":47,"class":48},{"id":606,"slug":607,"hasResults":12,"nctId":608,"briefTitle":609,"officialTitle":609,"acronym":610,"eligibilityCriteria":611,"healthyVolunteers":17,"sex":18,"minAge":19,"maxAge":58,"enrollmentInfo":612,"targetDuration":4,"studyType":61,"phases":614,"briefSummary":615,"conditions":616,"keywords":618,"overallStatus":37,"whyStopped":4,"lastUpdateSubmitDate":621,"lastUpdatePostDateStruct":622,"startDateStruct":624,"completionDateStruct":626,"leadSponsor":628,"locationsCount":49},"100594662","investigating-the-neuropsychological-effects-of-5-ht2a-antagonism-100594662","NCT07022366","Investigating the Neuropsychological Effects of 5-HT2a Antagonism","PANDER","Inclusion Criteria:\n\n* Willing and able to give informed consent for participation in the research\n* Aged 18-45 years\n* Good vision and hearing\n* Body mass index (BMI) within the range of 18-35kg\u002Fm2 (This is to ensure an appropriate pharmacokinetic profile for pimavanserin is achieved by all participants)\n* Sufficiently fluent in English to understand tasks\n* Willing to avoid drinking any alcohol the day before the research visit\n\nExclusion Criteria:\n\n* Currently receiving or seeking treatment for any mental health condition\n* Any past or current history of severe and\u002For serious psychiatric disorder, including but not limited to schizophrenia, psychosis, bipolar affective disorder, severe major depressive disorder, obsessive compulsive disorder (covered in SCID-5 assessment in screening procedures)\n* ADHD requiring treatment with stimulant or other centrally-acting drugs\n* Regular alcohol consumption of more than 21 units per week\n* A head injury causing concussion or unconsciousness in the past 6 months\n* Pregnancy \u002F intention to become pregnant during the study or breastfeeding\n* Any use of recreational drugs in the last three months\n* Participation in any other drug study in the last three months\n* Participation in any other study with the same tasks in the last year\n* History of cardiac disease or cardiac arrhythmias\n* Prolonged QTc interval on baseline ECG\n* Current usage of other drugs known to prolong QT interval including Class 1A or 3 antiarrhythmics, e.g. certain antibiotics (getifloxacin, moxifloxacin)\n* Current use of drugs that inhibit CYP3A4 (eg Clarithromycin.

Most antidepressant medications work by affecting serotonin to help improve symptoms. A serotonin receptor is like a \"lock\" on the surface of brain cells, and serotonin acts like a \"key\" that fits into these locks. When serotonin binds to the receptor, it sends a signal that helps control different functions in the brain, like mood and behavior. There are different types of serotonin receptors, and each one affects different parts of the brain. Pimavanserin is a medication licensed in the United States of America for the treatment of patients with Parkinson's Disease. It has a very specific effect on one type of serotonin receptor (the serotonin 2a receptor). In this study, the investigators will use pimavanserin to understand more about this serotonin receptor, which may help develop new treatments for depression in the future. More specifically, the study will focus on how pimavanserin impacts cognitive functions such as memory, how we process emotional information and how we make decisions, and will compare these effects to a placebo (a treatment that doesn't have active ingredients).",[617],"Healthy",[619,620],"serotonin 2a","pimavanserin","2026-04-28",{"date":623,"type":41},"2026-04-29",{"date":625,"type":41},"2025-02-10",{"date":627,"type":23},"2026-09",{"name":47,"class":48},{"id":630,"slug":631,"hasResults":12,"nctId":632,"briefTitle":633,"officialTitle":634,"acronym":635,"eligibilityCriteria":636,"healthyVolunteers":12,"sex":265,"minAge":637,"maxAge":638,"enrollmentInfo":639,"targetDuration":641,"studyType":25,"phases":4,"briefSummary":642,"conditions":643,"keywords":647,"overallStatus":37,"whyStopped":4,"lastUpdateSubmitDate":621,"lastUpdatePostDateStruct":654,"startDateStruct":655,"completionDateStruct":657,"leadSponsor":659,"locationsCount":49},"100530456","hypertension-explored-in-long-term-postpartum-follow-up-in-later-life-100530456","NCT06187012","Hypertension Explored in Long-term Postpartum Follow-up in Later Life","Hypertension Explored in Long-term Postpartum Follow-up in Later Life (HELPFUL)","HELPFUL","Inclusion Criteria:\n\n* Inclusion Criteria\n\n  * Participant is willing and able to give informed consent for participation in the study\n  * Female who had a pregnancy 10 to 25 years prior\n  * Able (in the investigator's opinion) and willing to comply with all study requirements.\n  * Adequate understanding of verbal and written English\n\nExclusion Criteria:\n\n* The participant may not enter the study if ANY of the following apply:\n\n  * Over 10 weeks pregnant during the course of the study\n  * Evidence of congenital heart disease or significant chronic disease relevant to cardiovascular or metabolic status\n  * Any significant disease or disorder which, in the opinion of the investigator, might influence the participant's ability to participate in the study\n\nFor exclusion of MRI component only:\n\n• Unsuitable for MRI based on the responses to the MRI screening form.
