简要总结
The purpose of this study is to determine whether SMDS patients treated with NR at the proposed dose exhibit decreased glucose uptake in the aorta, to determine if NR treatment results in measurable changes of blood NAD+ and NR levels, to determine if aortic measurements are stable after treatment with NR and to evaluate the safety and tolerability of NR in SMDS patients.

干预措施: Nicotinamide riboside (NR) (Drug)
结局指标
主要结局
Change in systolic blood
时间窗: Baseline , 8 weeks
Change in cerebral oxygenation and perfusion as assessed by the Head-up tilt table testing (HUTT) with near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) monitoring.
时间窗: Baseline , 8 weeks
Change in cognitive function as assessed by the NIH Toolbox assessment
时间窗: Baseline , 8 weeks
NIH Toolbox assessment evaluates multiple domains of cognitive performance including executive function, attention, episodic memory, language, processing speed, and working memory. Individual test scores are combined into a composite cognition score and reported as age-adjusted T-scores (mean = 50, SD = 10), where higher scores indicate better cognitive function.
Change in autonomic symptoms as assessed by the Composite Autonomic Symptom Score 31 (COMPASS-31) survey
时间窗: Baseline , 8 weeks
This is a 31 item questionnaire and each is scored from 0 (no symptoms) to 100(maximum symptom burden), with higher scores indicating more severe autonomic dysfunction.
Change in Impact of headaches as assessed by the Headache Impact Test (HIT-6) questionnaire
时间窗: Baseline, 8 weeks
HIT-6 questionnaire consists of 6 questions, each scored from 6(never) to 13(always), with total scores ranging from 36 to 78. Higher scores indicate a greater impact of headaches on quality of life.
Pulmonary function tests (PFTs), including spirometry and lung volume measurements
时间窗: Baseline, 8 weeks
Change in Aortic diameter as assessed by the echocardiography
时间窗: Baseline , 8 weeks
次要结局
- Change in Levels of Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+) in whole blood as measured by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC)(Baseline , 8 weeks)
- Change in Levels of NR in whole blood as measured by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC)(Baseline , 8 weeks)
- Safety as assessed by number of participants that show drug toxicity as shown in bloodwork(end of study (8 weeks after baseline))
- Tolerability as assessed by the number of patients who complete study(end of study( 8 weeks after baseline))
