Background: -How people respond to drugs depends in part on their genes. For some drugs, doctors can use an individuals genetic background to help in dosing the drug. Researchers want to know how doctors incorporate personalized or genomic medicine into clinical practice. Objective: -To study how physicians make personalized treatment decisions Eligibility: -Healthy adult primary care physicians who are internal (or family) medicine residents. Design: - Participants will complete a screening form. - Participants will put on a headset, called a head-mounted display, showing a virtual reality environment. - The environment will contain an exam room and the virtual patient. - After interacting with the virtual patient, participants will complete a series of survey measures. - Participation will last for about 60 minutes. The virtual patient interaction and follow-up questions will be audio taped.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate whether an Amitriptylin induced change in sleep patterns can be conditioned according to learning theory in healthy participants.
The purpose of this study is to study the effect of a probiotic product on iron absorption in healthy females of child-bearing age.
This is a data revision with a focus on 24 hour perfusion pressures of data from a previous randomized, double masked, multicenter clinical trial. The aim was to compare the effect of bimatoprost and the fixed combination of latanoprost and timolol (LTFC) on 24-hour mean intraocular pressure (IOP) after patients are switched from a nonfixed combination of latanoprost and timolol. The main findings of the original trial had been published on Ophthalmology [2007;114: 2244-2251].
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of KAD-1229 as combination therapy with insulin for 16 weeks and up to 52 weeks administration in patients with type 2 Diabetes Mellitus who show inadequate glycemic control with diet, and insulin monotherapy, or insulin and oral hypoglycemic agent.
Endoscopic retrograde biliary drainage with a self-expandable metal stent (SEMS) has been used as a principle palliative method of distal biliary obstruction in patients with pancreaticobiliary cancers. With potentially curative surgical resection being impossible, the maintenance of successful biliary drainage through patent stent has been regarded as the key to improve the quality of life and survival of patient, because it could prevent biliary infection or liver failure, and give patients opportunities for anti-cancer chemotherapy and/or radiotherapy. Although SEMSs have been reported to be superior to large bore plastic stents in terms of stent patency, they still have some controversial issues to resolve in relation to stent dysfunction and adverse event. It has been widely accepted that covered SEMSs designed to overcome the stent failure of uncovered SEMSs related to tumor ingrowth, have significant higher rate of stent migration as well as tumor overgrowth. Therefore covered SEMSs did not show the clear clinical excellence in the cumulative stent patency over uncovered SEMSs, despite some clinical results of randomized trials favor to covered SEMSs. From the perspective of adverse events such as pancreatitis and cholecystitis, conflicting results have been produced. It was initially assumed that covered SEMSs could cause the higher incidence of pancreatitis and cholecystitis attributed to occlusion of pancreatic duct and cystic duct by covering materials. However, no significant difference was found with regard to the incidence of pancreatitis and cholecystitis between covered and uncovered SEMSs in several randomized trials and meta-analysis. The aim of the current study is to compare the cumulative stent patency of partially covered and uncovered SEMS as a primary objective, and investigate overall patient survival, stent dysfunction-free patient survival, and incidence of adverse events including stent dysfunction as secondary objectives.
The purpose of this study is to investigate the efficacy, safety and pharmacokinetics of multiple oral administration of KUX-1151 in patients with hyperuricemia including gout.
The purpose of this study is to explore the cardiac pharmacodynamics, safety and tolerability of MT-1303 in healthy subjects.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of Oxymatrine plus Lamivudine Combination Therapy and whether it could lower the incidence of Lamivudine long-term resistance compared to Lamivudine Monotherapy.
This project will examine neuronal and sensory fat perception. Our hypothesis is that subjects being either hypersensitive or hyposensitive for fat will show different brain activities. Therefore the investigators will conduct functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) and fat detection threshold tests examining neuronal and sensory fat perception.
