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 small scale healthy eating study provides Southeast Asian families with children ages 6 to 11 with a family-based nutrition education, one-on-one interviews to help with motivation to eat health, text messaging, and coupons to purchase health foods and beverages. Since this is a small scale study that is a pilot intervention, the main goal of this intervention is to determine if it is feasible, meaning, can it be done. The second goal of this intervention is to determine if there are meaningful improvements in children's healthy eating patterns, body mass index and HbA1c. The third goal is to see if the intervention improves parent's diet quality, HbA1c and the home food environment. These study findings will be used to determine whether a larger clinical trial is needed, and if so, how it should be done.
The investigators hypothesize that the mobile application they developed for transgender and gender diverse individuals (TGGD) will be equivalent or better than traditional speech therapy in improving voice quality. The investigators will measure both how the participants feel about their voices and how their voice actually sounds to see if the app is effective.
This research project aims to provide additional knowledge of pharmacological and optical methods of myopia control and to gain a better understanding of the biometry of the pediatric eye, which contributes to the onset and progression of myopia. As a result, this study will improving our best practices for myopia control in pediatric patients.
The study will provide important information regarding the biometric changes that occur in behavioral treatments for chronic pain and explore the additional impact of integrated movement and supervised exercise. The goal of this clinical trial is to determine if pain rehabilitation programs have impacts on physical function in patient reported outcomes and objective measures of physical activity or sedentary time with a wearable Fitbit. Additionally, we will examine the associations between movement, pain acceptance, and related health factors, such as pain severity, sleep, functional status, depression, and anxiety. The addition of biometric data will allow for further investigation of the association between objective measures and patient self-report measures.
The purpose of this trial is to study the effectiveness of the AprictyRxTM care service to improve treatment outcomes of ethnic/racial minority N.S.C.L.C. patients receiving standard of care immunotherapy, and reduce the frequency of healthcare system interactions.
PTSD and substance use disorders (SUD) are two of the most common and debilitating mental health conditions afflicting military Veterans. PTSD and SUD frequently co-occur and are associated with poorer treatment outcomes. The investigators' team developed a trauma-focused intervention, Concurrent Treatment of PTSD and Substance Use Disorders Using Prolonged Exposure (COPE), which is identified by the VA as a gold standard of behavioral healthcare. However, a critical barrier to ensuring that Veterans with co-occurring PTSD/SUD receive evidence-based treatment is a lack of provider training. This project directly addresses this critical gap by developing a new web-based training program for providers (COPEWeb).
Project 1: The goal of this research project is to examine usability and acceptance of virtual reality (VR) applications and their efficacy with older adults. This highly innovative cross-site Stage 1 Intervention Development Project (NIH (National Institutes of Health) Stage Model) will apply the CREATE systematic approach to the design and evaluation of an immersive VR program, Cognitive Activity Social Technology (CAST), for older adults. The program will provide a suite of virtual cognitive, social and activity engagement applications; and allow for virtual interactions. Project 2: The goal of this Stage 1 (NIH Stage Model) Intervention Development cross-site project is to develop, using a user-centered design approach, and evaluate an innovative intelligent adaptive software package aimed at providing cognitive and social support and engagement to older adults with mild cognitive impairment (MCI). The system will be designed to adapt to the needs and abilities of the user. The investigator's goal is to develop a unique and highly innovative technology tool that can provide adaptive support to aging individuals with MCI, even as cognition might deteriorate further. Speech data collected as part of an embedded reminiscence feature will advance fundamental knowledge of how speech and language production data might serve as an early indicator of cognitive decline. Project 3: The goal for this project is to support the cognitive components of older adults' health-management activities through development of digital assistant technology tools tailored to three exemplar healthcare management task activities: accessing support services, managing healthcare finances, and using the health-management tools provided by Medicare.gov. This project will leverage the machine-intelligence expertise of the research investigators collaborators and the research investigators experience in developing and evaluating technologies for supporting the health and wellbeing needs of older adults to harness technology to provide cognitive support to aging adults, including those with Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI) and lower SES. The project will be comprised of three phases.
The primary purpose of this study is to attempt to replicate and extend promising pilot findings regarding the cognitive benefits of in-home neuro-exergaming with iPACES (interactive Physical and Cognitive Exercise System v3) for persons with mild cognitive impairment (MCI), to evaluate effects for persons with Parkinson's Disease (PD). Participants will include persons with PD, and potentially, also their co-residing partner, who will exercise at home or accessible location, 3-5 times per week for at least 6 months, with follow-up one month after the main intervention. All participation is "remote" (completed at home, or location of choice), utilizing either one's own equipment ("bring-your-own-devices" BYODs: pedaler, phone/tablet, smart-watch) or some equipment which may be supplied by the grant-funded study and shipped directly to the home; all study measures are completed remotely (e.g., via phone app, website, biometric device, videoconference, email, snail mail, etc.).
A diagnostic tool that identifies biomarkers that predict response prior to and during induction of ozanimod will have a major impact on improving outcomes in UC patients. Using SOMAscan from SomaLogic (Boulder, CO), our study aims to discover serum protein biomarkers in UC patients that predict response to ozanimod and to gain insight into the pathophysiological mechanisms underlying ozanimod response.
The purpose of this research is to study the effects of intravenous ketamine infusions for the treatment of patients with depressive symptoms in intensive care unit (ICU).
