Trial summary

Music Perception is well known to elicit emotions and neuronal activations. Changes in the cerebrovascular physiology have also been found in emotional tasks but only few studies have investigated markers of cerebrovascular physiology in a music task and no study has used the Ultrasound method of Tissue Pulsatility… Read more about this study

About this study

Music Perception is well known to elicit emotions and neuronal activations. Changes in the cerebrovascular physiology have also been found in emotional tasks but only few studies have investigated markers of cerebrovascular physiology in a music task and no study has used the Ultrasound method of Tissue Pulsatility Imaging (TPI) in a music task. The use of TPI to measure reactivity of Brain Tissue Pulsatility Imaging (BTP) could further elucidate the cerebral basis of music perception.

What is being measured

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

  1. amplitude of variations in brain tissue pulsatility

    in micrometers

    Measured: Baseline

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. heart rate

    beat by minute

    Measured: Baseline

  2. breathing rate

    Frequency

    Measured: Baseline

  3. skin conductance

    in milliVolt

    Measured: Baseline

  4. score of barcelona music reward questionnary (BMQR)

    BMQR: Barcellona Music Reward Questionnaire for the evaluation of musical anhedonia;

    • Only the total score of musical reward will be reported; for total score, minimum value is 20, maximum value is 100. Values under 40 represent low values in the overall score; values above 60 indicate high values in the overall score;
    • High global score (>60) represents a better outcome; low global score (<40) represents a worse outcome, notably an impairment in music reward processing;
    • The overall score is computed by adding raw scores of the items (except for items 2 and 5, which need to be reversed).

    Measured: Baseline

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Healthy, run by University Hospital, Tours at 1 site in France.

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 2 inclusion and 4 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 21 Aug 2019. 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 France. 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?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

amplitude of variations in brain tissue pulsatility (time frame: Baseline). 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 21 Aug 2019.
