Exploring the Relationship Between Advanced Multimodal Brain MRI Phenotypes, Genes and Cognitive Outcome in Adults With CHD


Sponsor

Boston Children's Hospital

Enrollment

225 participants

Start Date

Jul 1, 2022

Study Type

INTERVENTIONAL

Conditions

Summary

The main purpose of this proposal is to perform novel MRI analyses to determine the brain organizational changes associated with altered executive function and the modulating role of variants in neuroresilience and hypoxia response genes in adults with d-transposition of the great arteries (d-TGA).


Eligibility
