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.
This study tests a suite of single-session intervention (SSI) targeting risk factors for depression and eating disorders among adolescents and young adults. Youth ages 13-25 who screen positive for depression or anxiety as a part of routine care will be offered one of three digital SSIs. Participants will complete questionnaires before the intervention, immediately after the intervention, and 3-months after completing the intervention so that the study team can investigate if Project YES leads to reductions in depression, anxiety and eating disorder symptoms.
The goal of the study is to promote equitable hypertension (HTN) management across the diverse patient population found in Los Angeles County Department of Health Services (LAC DHS) clinics. To achieve this goal, the study team will conduct provider- and patient-focused outreach strategies to understand how to best support adoption of blood pressure management practices already available within LAC DHS. LAC DHS clinics will be randomly assigned to one of three study conditions: 1) provider-focused outreach, 2) patient-focused outreach, and 3) usual outreach. The study will occur across 3 years with patient- and provider-focused outreach occurring in Year 1 and 2. In Year 3, study initiated patient- and provider-focused outreach will stop, and clinic use of patient- and provider-focused outreach practices will be observed by the study team. Provider-focused outreach includes increasing cultural awareness of factors that hinder and support blood pressure control, increasing access to blood pressure medications, and providing blood pressure management education. Patient-focused outreach includes using culturally sensitive educational materials and reminders to improve patient understanding of blood pressure, education on how to manage the condition, and increasing awareness of available blood pressure management resources. Clinics assigned to the usual outreach condition will operate as per usual in Year 1 but will receive patient- and provider-focused outreach in Year 2.
The purpose of this study will be to implement and evaluate a prehab program for pre-frail and frail adults who need to undergo thoracic surgery. The study team hypothesizes using an implementation framework will increase the reach, effectiveness, adoption, and implementation of the prehab program.
The overall goal of this project is to design, implement, and revise the Core Competency Model for Corrections (CCM-C), an evidence-based Self-Directed Violence (SDV) prevention training program for correctional mental health providers in the North Carolina Department of Adult Corrections (DAC). The proposed specific aims are: Aim 1: To create the CCM-C training program. Aim 2: To assess preliminary training effectiveness. Aim 3: To gather training program quality improvement feedback from corrections stakeholders.
Our study will be a prospective observational study of all patients in the Norton Children's Hospital NICU (Neonatal Intensive Care Unit) who undergo a transcatheter PDA occlusion or medical closure of PDA to compare the two populations regarding changes in organ perfusion determined by using NIRS monitoring to follow the regional saturation of oxygen (rSO2) of the cerebral and renal regions. We suspect that medical treatment will have no significant change in rSO2 as described in previous literature. We also suspect that transcatheter occlusion will have minimal effects on rSO2 and be comparable to medical therapy.
The investigators will be conducting a randomized trial in 3 reservation communities to test the efficacy of the narrative as culture-centric health promotion model for increasing American Indian tribal members' palliative care knowledge and intentions to discuss palliative care.
This is a randomized, open-label, phase 2 study evaluating the safety and efficacy of oral ropidoxuridine as a radiation-sensitizing agent in patients with newly diagnosed wild-type isocitrate dehydrogenase glioblastoma with an unmethylated O6-methylguanine-DNA methyltransferase promoter, undergoing standard 60 Gy radiotherapy.
Current clinical guidelines for medication assisted treatment (MAT) of opioid use disorder (OUD) recommend that treatment include a psychosocial component to help address psychological factors related to addiction. However, a knowledge gap exists regarding the most effective forms of psychosocial intervention and what interventions are most effective for different types of patients. This gap represents a significant barrier to the widespread implementation of effective office-based opioid treatment (OBOT) with buprenorphine, which is important to improving opioid treatment and responding to the critical needs of individuals living with OUD. The overarching goal of this patient-centered research is to address the diverse needs and preferences of OUD patients in regards to psychosocial approaches and to overcome the "one-size-fits-all" strategies that are typically used to treat OUD. Importantly, the investigators arrived at this goal, in part, through collaboration and consultation with former patients who have received different types of treatments for OUD. In this manner, patients provided important insight to inform the selection of interventions to be evaluated, patient characteristics that may differentially impact the effects of the interventions, and the patient outcomes to be examined.
Pep19 is a naturally occurring peptide (protein) that triggers loss of body fat. It has been certified Generally Recognized as Safe (GRAS) at up to 3.8 grams per day and may be included in various foods. Pep19 has no effect on the brain, heart, pancreas or skeletal muscle. It is highly purified, not allergenic or mutagenic, and free of microbes, metals and other contaminants. Preliminary, open-label, uncontrolled studies have shown that Pep19 is well tolerated in rodents, dogs, and humans. This placebo-controlled study will evaluate the effects of two doses of Pep19™ -- 2 mg and 5 mg - on quality of life and sleep quality in obese subjects.
The goal of this clinical trial is to develop and test an adaptive physical activity (PA) maintenance intervention for cancer survivors, after participating in a community-based exercise oncology program. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Aim 1: Examine the feasibility and acceptability of the intervention among cancer survivors and community partners. The researchers will utilize quantitative surveys, focus groups, and semi-structured interviews to collect information about feasibility, implementation, adaptation, and sustainability. - Aim 2: Examine the effects of the intervention among cancer survivors. The researchers will compare the proportion of participants achieving the exercise guidelines for cancer survivors six-months following completion of the initial exercise program. Participants will participate in a community-based exercise oncology program and then return to three months of free living. Based on the PA measured at the three-month follow-up, participants will be categorized as a "Responder" or "Incomplete Responder", and then randomized to the PA maintenance intervention. Researchers will compare those that are classified as Responders (meeting exercise guidelines for cancer survivors) and Incomplete Responders (not meeting guidelines for cancer survivors) to see what level of intervention is needed to influence sustainable behavior change in this population.
