There are about 28871 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Canada. The country of the clinical trial is determined by the location of where the clinical research is being studied. Most studies are often held in multiple locations & countries.
The purpose of this study is to collect historical data in real life conditions in a large group of people who have type 1 or type 2 diabetes and were treated with Tresiba® (insulin degludec) for at least 6 months. Data will be collected beginning 6 months before the participant started Tresiba® up to around 6 months after the participant started taking insulin degludec.
The research study is being done so we can determine the quality of the protein present in Rice, Wheat, Chickpeas and 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… Rice, Wheat, Chickpeas and Lentils as a food source contain low amounts of the essential amino acid methionine (Chickpeas and Lentils) and lysine (Rice and Wheat) which makes its protein incomplete. The amino acids in Rice, Wheat, Chickpeas and Lentils are also affected by cooking. Our objective is to determine the amount of methionine in Rice and Wheat and the amount of lysine in Chickpeas and Lentils that the body can use. 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 Rice, Wheat, Chickpeas and 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 always directly applicable to humans. Plant protein sources like rice, wheat, chickpeas and lentils are important protein sources shown to "enhance ecosystem resilience, and improve human health.
The study purpose is to assess various protein blends, which differ in protein quality, and the impact on blood amino acid response in male subjects.
The study will evaluate the efficacy of the Rehabilitation Planning Consult (RPC) to achieve key rehabilitation outcomes in survivors of head and neck cancer compared to a waiting list control group. The RPC is a consultative intervention that teaches survivors to use self-management and problem solving strategies to meet and attain individualized goals. Follow-through with plans and goal attainment are facilitated by a Rehabilitation Consultant. Results from this study will be used to plan for a larger multi-site trial and subsequent real world implementation.
This randomized pilot study examines a graduated behavioral treatment approach for youth with obsessive compulsive disorder. Youth will be randomized to receive treatment in the community or at the hospital. In the first stage, youth receive an intro session and two 3-hour ERP sessions. Youth will be assessed for OCD recovery. Recovered youth enter follow-up. Still affected youth enter the second stage, where they will can select to receive up to four additional ERP sessions (one per week). In follow-up, youth will receive three 30 minute weekly calls and will be reassessed at 1- and 6-months following treatment.
The Frazier Free Water Protocol (FFWP) using plain, thin (unmodified) water is an accepted method to increase fluid intake and hydration in older adults with disordered swallowing and dementia.This study aims to take an interdisciplinary approach to see if the FFWP with improved oral care can be introduced in a long term care (LTC) setting comparing an intervention group with a control group receiving standard oral care, to prevent respiratory infections.
The investigators will enroll a total of 628 patients under 18 years of age with ARP or CP. Included in the total are the 357patients in the INSPPIRE 1 database who are planned to be reenrolled under this protocol over the next 4 years. Patient questionnaires and physician surveys will be applied at the time of enrollment and annually thereafter as long as possible. At the first study visit after turning 18 years of age, the patient will sign the informed consent to continue in the study. Specifically, the investigators will define the demographics of the pediatric ARP and CP cohort, describe risk factors, presence of family history of acute and chronic pancreatitis, diabetes and pancreatic cancer and assess disease burden and sequelae.
Study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of coadminstration of SCY-078 with a mold-active azole (voriconazole) compared to voriconazole in patients with invasive pulmonary aspergillosis.
Postpartum hemorrhage (PPH) due to uterine atony is a major cause of maternal morbidity and mortality. Carbetocin is a uterotonic with a superior pharmacokinetic profile to oxytocin. In a study performed at Mount Sinai Hospital, the investigators have shown that smaller doses of carbetocin (14.8 mcg) are as effective in achieving adequate uterine tone at elective cesarean section compared to the current recommended dose of 100mcg. However, this study was limited to those women with a body mass index (BMI) of <40 kg/m2. Maternal obesity has been shown to increase the risks of hemorrhage secondary to uterine atony, therefore the investigators wish to perform a dose finding study to determine the ED90 of carbetocin at caesarean section in those women with a BMI>40.
This is a two-arm parallel, non-masked, bilateral, non-dispensing study with one Test arm and one concurrent, non-randomized Control arm to evaluate the one-eye optical performances of the test soft contact lens and compare with eyes treated with orthokeratology.
