There are about 173942 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in United States. 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 goal of this clinical trial is to test the effectiveness of sport-based physical education (PE) curriculum on activity behaviors (moderate to vigorous physical activity and sedentary behavior), executive functions, and academic performance in elementary school-aged children, particularly among low-income ethnic minorities. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Whether a school-based sport program can improve child engagement in school-time moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (MVPA) and total daily MVPA, compared to a control group (standard PE class)? - Whether a school-based sport program can improve child executive functions and academic performance, compared to a control group (standard PE class)? Participants randomized to receive the ACtive Children Enhance LEaRning and AttenTION (ACCELERATION) intervention (treatment) received - 45-minute weekly for 10 weeks soccer (ball mastery exercises) curriculum led by trained PE teachers during the school PE lesson time. - Homework required practicing learned ball mastery skills daily for 15-20 minutes at home. A required ball was provided to them. - Virtual parent workshops, which required the attendance of parents of study participants to improve their understanding of all about the program Researchers will compare the control group, who received a regular PE class curriculum, to see if there are any differences in child activity behaviors, executive functions, and academic performance.
This study is a randomized, double-blind, crossover trial aiming at evaluating the gastrointestinal tolerance of 3 sugar replacers mixes at 3 different doses. The investigators will also try to understand the factors that could explain the presence or absence of symptoms
This clinical trial evaluates the use of virtual reality (VR) goggles during chemotherapy infusion to reduce anxiety-related symptoms in patients with head and neck, thoracic, hematologic, and breast cancers. Virtual reality headsets provide the ability for users to explore a simulated, three-dimensional environment with which users can interact. In virtual reality users can play interactive games, enjoy relaxing experiences, and watch immersive videos. The use of VR goggles may help with anxiety management during chemotherapy infusion.
The VicTor Study is a randomized, double blind, placebo-controlled, 3-period, multiple-dose crossover study in participants with OSA.
The purpose of this study is to see the impact of social visits, through weekly phone calls, on quality of life and health outcomes of depression, anxiety, loneliness, and self-rated health for adults who have experienced an ischemic or hemorrhagic stroke and to determine the benefit of these conversations on the student volunteer's perspective of adults who have survived a stroke
This study aims to assess possible bioeffects that may be caused by the use of shear wave elastography (SWE) with conditionally increased acoustic output pressure (CIO). Bioeffects will be monitored by of a series of liver function tests (LFTs) with results graded according to the NCI scale for drug hepatoxicity. LFTs will be collected prior to SWE imaging using CIO, as well up to 7 days post-imaging. Secondarily, this study aims to understand the degree to which SWE imaging results have improved with the use of COI.
Heart failure causes significant morbidity and mortality, particularly in Navajo Nation. There are well-established evidence of improved mortality and lower heart failure hospitalizations with certain pharmacotherapies for heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF). However, these medications are underutilized nationally, including in the Indian Health Service which is one important driver of poor heart failure outcomes. Therefore, as part of an EHR-based pragmatic clinic trial, we are implementing and testing a model that identifies American Indian HFrEF patients receiving care at one large Indian Health Service Site who meet clinical criteria for, but are not on appropriate therapy, and implements a model in patients are initiated and titrated on appropriate therapy over the phone with remote tele monitoring using home blood pressure cuff. We will evaluate the impact of this model to improve uptake of GDMT among HFrEF patients.
This study will collect data to establish a reference database for the IMOvifa perimeter.
The goal of this natural history study is to examine the immune responses to the Heplisav-B vaccine in Veterans living with HIV who were non-responders to prior HBV vaccination. A comparison group of HBV vaccine nonresponders without HIV infection will be enrolled to characterize the HIV-associated immune alterations that affect vaccine response. The investigators hypothesize that TLR9-mediated innate immune stimulation with Heplisav will elicit HBV seroprotection despite prior vaccination failures in persons living with HIV, compared to HIV uninfected individuals. Participants eligible for Heplisav-B vaccination will be asked to provide blood samples at multiple timepoints before and after their vaccination.
Specific study objectives include: - To describe patient and provider characteristics for aflibercept patients and aflibercept user injections by aflibercept dispensing device, overall, and stratified by time (quarterly, annually). - To estimate the annual and quarterly incidence of intraocular inflammation (IOI) and suspected endophthalmitis for aflibercept user injections by aflibercept dispensing device. Secondary objectives • To estimate the annual incidence of IOI and suspected endophthalmitis for aflibercept user injections by dispensing device, stratified by indication for use, history of IOI, and provider characteristics.
