The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, infectivity, and immunogenicity of a single dose of a recombinant live-attenuated respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) vaccine in RSV-seronegative infants and children 6 to 24 months of age. This study is a companion study to IMPAACT 2013.
FYU-981 or Benzbromarone are administrated to hyperuricemia patients with or without gout for 14 weeks to compare the efficacy and safety of these drugs by the method of multicenter, randomized, double-blind, ascending dose regimen.
This clinical project aims to study the relationship between gluten consumption and its impact on digestive comfort, quality of life and performance of non-celiac athletes practicing an intensive physical activity..
This observational study evaluates peri-procedural results of the Niobe™ Remote Magnetic Navigation (RMN) ES system using the contact detection system (CDS) in patients undergoing standard of care radiofrequency ablation of cardiac arrhythmias. The objective of this observational study is to confirm system performance of the CDS and that it does not alter pacing, electrocardiograms, or mapping during RF ablation procedures.
Both simple mastectomy and breast conservation therapy (BCT) with radiotherapy yield similar survival rates in breast cancer. These two treatment strategies have diverted cosmetic outcome and convenience. Thus, shared decision making (SDM) is necessary to aid patients to choose an appropriate treatment that suits thier needs. We have developed a decision aids (DAs) and plan to conduct a randomized controlled trial (RCT) to evaluate its impact on cancer patients. The measurements include a battery of interview-based questionnaires and evaluations of decision regret and postsurgical depression. We expect the DAs would benefit the intervention group in the aspects of knowledge, communication and anxiety status during and after thier treatment sessions.
The purpose of this study is to determine if low-frequency transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) is safe and feasible for treating depressive symptoms in patients with epilepsy. Patients will receive an accelerated protocol of TMS consisting of three consecutive days of treatment. Patients will have in-person follow up visits after one month and again after six months.
The research study is being done so we can determine the quality of the protein present in Canadian lentils. Amino acids are the building blocks of protein and protein quality is determined by the amount of amino acids present and by their bioavailability (their absorption and use by the body). Some amino acids are essential which means they must be obtained from the diet. If any one of the essential amino acids is missing in the diet, the body cannot make proteins that are used to repair tissue build bone, teeth, etc… Lentils as a food source contain low amounts of the essential amino acid methionine which makes its protein incomplete. The amino acids in lentils are also affected by cooking. Our objective is to determine the amount of methionine in lentils that the body can use. We will test lentils by studying them after cooking them in a stew, on their own and by combining the lentil stew with rice in a mixed meal to make a more complete protein. This research is being done in order to bridge the gap between knowledge of protein requirement and the amount of food needed to meet that requirement. Results from this study will be important for recommendations guiding food choices of lentils as a major protein source in the diet. Previously the quality of dietary protein for human consumption was studied in animals. This study is being done in humans because studies in animals are not directly applicable to humans. Excessive animal protein consumption is also linked to cardiovascular disease. Plant protein sources like lentils are important alternatives shown to "enhance ecosystem resilience, and improve human health.
The purpose of this study is to see if Honeywell Genesis Android Touch Bluetooth System (mobile health) can improve patient satisfaction and quality of care provided to women experiencing complications due to high blood pressure during pregnancy.
Glutamine-induced recovery in intestinal barrier function by reducing bacterial translocation was demonstrated in previous studies. In this trial, intensive care unit patients with enteral feeding will receive either enteral glutamine or maltodextrin as placebo for 10 days and the effects of the intervention on intestinal permeability will be assessed.
The European Union is funding this randomised trial in Scotland as part of the larger eCAP project (http://www.interreg-npa.eu/projects/funded-projects/project/139/). The need for psychiatric services for children and adolescents is usually greater than the services available. As well as this, in many cases, there is confusion as to which service the child or young person should be referred to. The way children and young people arrive at Child and Adolescent Mental Health Services (CAMHS) may therefore be relatively inefficient and families could suffer as a result of this inefficiency. The use of a computerised structured questionnaire such as the Development and Well-being Assessment (DAWBA) offers the opportunity for these difficulties to be addressed, for the avoidance of 'inappropriate referrals' and for more rational use of resources. It is usually administered online through a secure internet portal. At the end of the data collection, a computerised summary is generated from the data given by all the informants and a child/adolescent psychiatrist lists the likely diagnosis or diagnoses in a summary of the case and gives his view about the next steps. This is then made available to the referrer. This community-based study aims to establish whether using the DAWBA in this way helps children and young people with mental health problems. The main objectives are to improve their mental health, reduce waiting times, change referral practice, increase satisfaction in services and improve cost effectiveness. The principal outcome measure will be parent-rated Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire (SDQ) score 6 months after randomisation. Secondary outcome measures will include teacher and child-rated SDQ at 6 months and waiting times to services. The investigators will also record service use data and family out -of -pocket costs. A random sample of young people, family and referrers will be interviewed to explore satisfaction with service.
