This research will study the effect of NanoChitosan impregnated Calcium Hydroxide versus Calcium Hydroxide as an intracanal medication on postoperative pain intensity measured using numerical rating scale (NRS) and bacterial load reduction determined by bacterial counting using agar culture technique after root canal preparation (CFU/ml) in necrotic teeth.
Assessment of the effect of gabapentin as an analgesic replacement on the Kidney function following Laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy for Morbid Obese Patients by measuring two biomarkers: NGAL (Neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin)and DKK3 (Dickkopf-3)
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn about the impacts of using a mobile health app, the Qoyangnuptu Intervention App (QI App) a Southwestern Tribal Community. The main questions it aims to answer are: In American Indian/Alaska Native communities with unique cultural characteristics, how should a youth-focused sociotechnical behavioral health intervention be designed to encourage sustained engagement and positively impact indicators of behavioral health?; How can interactive technical interventions be designed to best support sustained community engagement in a challenged network environment? Participants will: - Receive daily guidance and encouragement to use the app from an anonymous, trained peer mentor - Be able to ask their peer mentors questions in a monitored one-on-one chat in the QI app or in a monitored group chat in the QI app - Log their mood and stress level on the app once per day - Practice mindfulness skills as directed in the QI app, including guided breathing, meditation, drawing, coloring, and walking - Practice Hopi cultural activities like running using the QI app to help track progress towards team mileage goals
The goal of this clinical trial is to explore Clinical Effect of Myofascial Release Therapy in Dysphagic Parkinson's Patients. The main question it aims to answer is: • Can Myofascial Release Therapy improve swallowing function in Parkinson's Patients? Patients will be randomly allocated into the control group or the experimental group, all under rehabilitation treatment, the experimental group will be given Myofascial Release Therapy. The study lasts 21 days for each patient. Researchers will compare the Functional Oral Intake Scale, Penetration-Aspiration Scale, Swallowing Quality of Life to see if the Myofascial Release Therapy can help improve the situation.
The investigators aim to test the preliminary efficacy as well as the acceptability and feasibility of paradoxical intention, which is a psychotherapeutic technique, for improving insomnia symptoms in adults. Previous research has tested this technique for insomnia and found overall positive results. However, during the last decades very few studies have examined paradoxical intention. Therefore the investigators wish to conduct a pilot study examining the effects in a modern context.
The purpose of this study, which includes a clinical trial, is to adapt and assess the efficacy of Parenting-STAIR (PSTAIR), an intervention which combines existing evidence-based treatments Skills Training in Affective and Interpersonal Regulation (STAIR) and Parent-Child Care (PC-Care) to reduce symptoms of Post-traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) and improve parenting among military-connected mothers. Participants in the clinical trial will receive PSTAIR or trauma-focused treatment as usual (either prolonged exposure or cognitive processing therapy).
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of epinephrine in irrigation fluid for visual clarity in ankle arthroscopic surgery.
The goal of this trial is to evaluate the efficacy of an integrated self-management programme in improving clinical outcomes in patients with hand osteoarthritis (OA). This is an open-labelled, randomized controlled trial with an objective to determine the efficacy of an integrated self-management programme versus routine clinical care for participants with symptomatic hand OA. Participants will be randomized into early intervention group and routine clinical care groups in a 1:1 ratio. Patients who randomized into early intervention group will receive 8 week integrated self-management programme delivered by occupational therapists and rheumatology nurse on hand OA management. Patients who randomized into routine clinical care group will receive usual clinical care for OA for 26 weeks and then receive an identical 8 weeks integrated self-management programme. The primary outcome is the improvement in pain at 26 weeks between the two groups.
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn about the effect of communicative interaction on verbal communication in people with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and age-matched speakers. The question is, What are the effects of communicative interaction on verbal communication in people with ALS? Participants will read words and sentences while they are in a solo setting and interactive setting.
The goal of this study is to combine information on risk factors from health questionnaires with minimally invasive biological tests (vaginal DNA and microbiome swabs, pH, hormones) to predict the risk of endometrial cancer (EC), better understand progression of the disease, and identify opportunities for intervention. This study will recruit patients who are already scheduled to undergo diagnostic evaluation for abnormal uterine bleeding via endometrial biopsy. In Part A, consented participants will be asked to fill out an online risk factor questionnaire. Samples will be collected by the gynecologist at the biopsy appointment. After biopsy results are obtained, all samples from participants diagnosed with EC or precursors, plus a random subset with benign results, will be selected to be sequenced and analyzed. In Part B, that subset of selected non-malignant participants, based on biopsy, will be invited to take part in lifestyle tracking using a Fitbit, questionnaires, and to provide another round of at-home vaginal samples to identify any persistent genetic mutations or microbiome alterations 6-8 months later.
