Hypoxic-Ischemic Encephalopathy clinical trials at UCSF
1 research study open to eligible people
Hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy happens when a baby’s brain doesn't get enough oxygen. At UCSF, researchers are exploring if genetic factors contribute to seizures that occur after birth. This involves studying families to see how these elements are connected.
Neonatal Seizure Registry, GEnetics of Post-Neonatal Epilepsy
open to all eligible people
The NSR-GENE study is a longitudinal cohort study of approximately 300 parent-child trios from the Neonatal Seizure Registry and participating site outpatient clinics that aims to evaluate whether and how genes alter the risk of post-neonatal epilepsy among children with acute provoked neonatal seizures. The researchers aim to develop prediction rules to stratify neonates into low, medium, and high risk for post-neonatal epilepsy based on clinical, electroencephalogram (EEG), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and genetic risk factors.
