The objective of the NEUTROSURGERY study is to describe the local and locoregional immuno-inflammatory activity in patients suffering from malignant sylvian ischaemic cerebral accident and treated with decompressive hemicraniectomy compared to a control population of patients to be operated on in neurosurgery for another neurosurgical pathology.
This multicenter, triple-blind, phase 2, randomized controlled trial will evaluate the efficacy and safety of psilocybin therapy compared to an active control in treating demoralization in adults near the end of life (≤2 years life expectancy).
The aim is to assess the prevalence of May-Thurner syndrome in 1st-degree relatives of previously identified symptomatic patients.
The overall objective is to test the feasibility and acceptability of a remote glucose monitoring program among Marshallese women with PGDM (pre-gestational diabetes mellitus) or GDM (gestational diabetes mellitus) and with limited English proficiency.
The US opioid overdose epidemic has been accompanied by an increase in human immunodeficiency (HIV) among persons who inject drugs. HIV pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) is an FDA approved medication taken daily orally by individuals who are HIV negative, but who are at increased risk for HIV. In order to obtain PrEP, a prescription is needed. Before being prescribed HIV PrEP, it is recommended by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) to obtain an HIV test first. Although home HIV self-test kits are recommended by the CDC and are locally available, uptake remains low. CHORUS+ (Comprehensive HIV, Hepatitis C, and Opioid Use Disorder Response to the Unaddressed Syndemic +) is a theory-based, peer-delivered, mobile phone-supported intervention focused on enhancing uptake and adherence to HIV PrEP (primary outcome), and continuation of MOUD (secondary outcome) among persons who inject opioids. At recruitment, the intervention will include HIV self-testing, rapid initiation of PrEP and MOUD, and 6-month peer recovery coaching (PRC) to support adherence to these medications. This research study seeks to determine the efficacy of a novel intervention to increase the uptake of evidence-based measures to prevent HIV and treat opioid use disorder. The efficacy of this multi-site, two-arm randomized control trial of CHORUS+ and usual care [passive referral]. This study is not testing the efficacy of PrEP or HIV home testing which is already known. In addition the investigators will determine the influence of HIV self-testing on PrEP uptake and adherence. In the CHORUS+/ intervention arm, there will be a baseline in-person session with the participant to encourage uptake of PrEP and MOUD using motivational interviewing (MI).
This phase I trial tests the safety, side effects, and best dose of dexamethasone when given with azeliragon in managing cerebral edema after surgery (post-resection) in patients with glioblastoma. Cerebral edema is a pathological increase in the water mass contained within the brain interstitial space. Dexamethasone is in a class of medications called corticosteroids. It is used to reduce inflammation and lower the body's immune response to help lessen the side effects of chemotherapy drugs. Azeliragon is an oral RAGE inhibitor. Blocking the RAGE pathway at the time of surgery (peri-operatively) may decrease cerebral edema. Giving dexamethasone with azeliragon may help control post-operative cerebral edema in decreasing doses of concurrently administered dexamethasone.
The objective of the study is to evaluate the performance of the VERAFEYE System in subjects entitled to undergo a standard of care ablation or closure procedure. Results from this study will be used to guide development and refinement the VERAFEYE System. The study is not designed to collect data for product approval and as such does not have a safety or efficacy endpoint.
Although breastfeeding provides the infant with all the nutrients necessary for its development, it has been observed that in Panama there are low rates of Exclusive Breastfeeding. Educational interventions, that support exclusive breastfeeding, which begin before delivery and continue to the postnatal period, have been shown to be effective. The main objective of the study is the development and testing of an educational intervention through web based platform, to support exclusive breastfeeding up to 6 months. This educational intervention will provide guidance with the help of an audiovisual format, with information and breastfeeding techniques, which mothers can reproduce as many times as necessary. The main objective of the study is the development and testing of an educational intervention through AmiHealth, to support exclusive breastfeeding up to 6 months. A pilot study will be conducted on a non-random convenience sample.
This study is a vaccine-related clinical trial which will be conducted by our study team at Kenema Government Hospital (KGH)'s Viral Hemorrhagic Fever Program in collaboration with Tulane University School of Medicine. This study is funded by Merck & Co., the developers of ERVEBO®. This investigational medicinal product (IMP) was successful in Sierra Leone through the Sierra Leone Trial to Introduce a Vaccine against Ebola (STRIVE) working with the College of Medical and Allied Health Services (COMAHS) at the University of Sierra Leone. ERVEBO® was also successfully tested in Liberia and the Republic of Guinea. These successful trials led to the United States Food and Drug Administration (USFDA) approval of ERVEBO®, as well as approval for therapeutic use in the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Burundi, Ghana, and Zambia. This particular vaccination study will focus on the anamnestic response to the ERVEBO® vaccine, (full name - rVSVDG-ZEBOV-GP Ebola Virus Vaccine). The original clinical trials conducted excluded Ebola Virus Disease (EVD) survivors from participating. However, with ongoing research, there is evidence of waning immune response and even recurrent infections in EVD survivors.
The goal of this clinical trial is to test the equivalence of two delivery modalities of a universal child sexual abuse prevention program, Safe Touches: usual vs. modified. The aims are to: 1. Determine the equivalence of effectiveness between usual and modified Safe Touches 2. Assess the maintenance of gains between usual and modified Safe Touches 3. Examine factors that may impact the future dissemination and implementation
