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 purpose of this study is to pilot a beta version of a digital resource that supports the religious and spiritual beliefs of cancer patients, "MyInspiration".After receiving a cancer diagnosis, survivors are encouraged to make major life-altering decisions related to their treatment and care. The availability of spiritual/religious resources during cancer treatment may positively impact patient outcomes, feelings of well-being, and be essential components of holistic, patient-centered care. MyInspiration is a digital tool focused on spiritual and/or religious guidance and support that can be customized based on patient preferences and administered to cancer patients and their family members during cancer treatment. MyInspiration may help improve spiritual well-being in patients with cancer.
This study is a longitudinal, randomized-controlled study with a stepped-wedge research design. The Integrated Early Childhood Development Activity (IECD) will implement interventions in three cohorts of villages sequentially across two provinces of Cambodia, Kampong Thom and Preah Vihear. IECD will collect data from all three cohorts together, four times, at 12-month intervals: a baseline prior to any program intervention, a Cohort 1 end line, a Cohort 2 end line and a Cohort 3 end line. IECD's Theory of Change is that by changing caregivers' practices in rearing their children under age 5, those children will demonstrate improvements in child development outcomes. The investigators will use 6 instruments to collect this data, including well-established internationally validated measures. The IECD team enrolled 1,790 households in Preah Vihear and Kampong Thom in June and July 2021. The study will be competed in 2025.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of guselkumab in participants with Crohn's disease.
A clinical trial investigating the safety and effectiveness of Smith and Nephew's FDA-approved Porous Total Knee System, which is used to replace worn away and diseased knee joints. The aim of this study is to show that most patients who receive the Porous Total Knee System have reduced pain, greater mobility and a long-lasting implant post-surgery.
The MomMoodBooster intervention is an empirically validated treatment for postpartum depression symptoms. The intervention was created by Brian Danaher and Milagra Tyler, who have continued to update the intervention technology and content. The intervention is now available for pregnant and postpartum Veterans, and it is accessible on browsers via computer, tablet, or mobile phone. The intervention contains six cognitive-behavioral modules that span six weeks, and it includes identification of pleasant activities, tracking mood and thoughts, and identification of goals. The current trial is an expansion of a nationwide service delivery project that has been ongoing for six years with the goal of offering the intervention to postpartum Veterans nationwide. Within that study, Veterans completed the online modules in concert with weekly phone coaching calls wherein coaches applied the content to the Veteran's current life. In addition, two booster modules and associated coaching calls were developed to continue application of the skills beyond the six-week intervention period. The present study seeks to investigate the incremental utility of the phone coaching component of the intervention by randomizing pregnant and postpartum Veterans to the MomMoodBooster intervention or the MomMoodBooster intervention plus phone coaching. Primary outcomes will include depressive symptoms, behavioral activation, and negative automatic thoughts.
The purpose of this study is to examine the feasibility of using sipIT tools (i.e., wrist-worn sensors, smart water bottles, mobile applications) to increase compliance with physician-recommended fluid consumption guidelines in participants with a history of urolithiasis.
The scientific premise, developed from past work, is that treatment personalized based on idiographic models (termed Network Informed Personalized Treatment; NA-PT) will outperform the current gold-standard treatment (Enhanced Cognitive Behavioral Therapy: CBT-E). The study goals are to (1) develop and test the acceptability, feasibility, and preliminary efficacy of a randomization of NA-PT versus CBT-E and (2) to test if network-identified precision targets are the mechanism of change. These goals will ultimately lead to the very first personalized treatment for ED and can be extended to additional psychiatric illnesses. Specific aims are (1) To collect preliminary data on the feasibility and acceptability of the randomization of NA-PT (n=40) for EDs versus CBT-E (n=40), (2) To test the initial clinical efficacy of NA-PT versus CBT-E on clinical outcomes (e.g., ED symptoms, body mass index, quality of life) and (3) To examine if changes in NA-identified, precision targets, as well as in dynamic network structure, are associated with change in clinical outcomes.
The purpose of this study is to understand the impact of Family Connectors, a peer-to-peer support and education program for family members who have participated in OnTrackNY, a treatment program for adolescents and young adults.
This study is being conducted to assess the safety of Direct Peritoneal Resuscitation (DPR) in high-risk liver transplant patients. The investigators want to also identify if this method of recovery after large surgery has the same benefits in liver transplant patients as have been appreciated in other surgical patients. The combination of elevated BMI and impaired kidney function increases the risk of 1) needing intensive care unit (ICU) admission after surgery, 2) slow function of the new liver [technically termed Early Allograft Dysfunction (EAD)] and 3) need for more than one operation. The study team also aims to identify if DPR can reduce these risks and not cause other unexpected complications following surgery. DPR involves the infusion of a solution into the abdomen and has been shown to reduce edema and improve blood flow in organs. The solution used in this study is a commercially available peritoneal dialysate, a dextrose containing solution that is infused into the abdominal cavity and is routinely used in patients with end-stage renal disease requiring dialysis.
