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.
Despite well-documented disparities in Alzheimer's disease and related dementia (AD) prevalence, incidence, treatment, and mortality, individuals from disadvantaged backgrounds (e.g. racial/ethnic minorities and socioeconomically disadvantaged persons) are under-represented in clinical research. Existing research recruitment approaches are rarely designed to accommodate the priorities, concerns, and constraints relevant to participants from diverse backgrounds. To address these gaps, the investigators developed a research recruitment and engagement model, the Participant Oriented Research Engagement Model that centers and prioritizes relational aspects of research engagement, research participant needs, and systematically address socioeconomic determinants (i.e. unmet needs) that may limit accessibility of research. The investigators propose to test the effectiveness of the Brain Health Community (BHC) Registry recruitment and engagement intervention, as compared to standard research recruitment strategies in modifying enrollment rates, participant satisfaction, and engagement. The investigators hypothesize that the BHC Registry will yield greater enrollment rates, higher satisfaction, and better ratings of relational engagement.
This study is being conducted to learn more about how various personal and situational characteristics are related to the ability to provide verbal descriptions of photographs. Participants will perform a brief mental exercise, then see three photographs with instructions to describe each thoroughly. Participants will also complete several other surveys and measures. Collected data will give researchers a better understanding of how different variables relate to speech production.
The purpose of this study is to assess the effectiveness of an interdisciplinary intensive therapy program for ambulatory and non-ambulatory children with neurodevelopmental disorders across the ICF and to explore caregiver experiences and perspectives of the program.
This clinical trial will evaluate the efficacy and safety of the use of the Turtle Health Ultrasound Scanner for the acquisition of transvaginal ultrasound images by a study participant, with no previous training, in her home when guided by real-time remote supervision from a qualified and specially trained ultrasound technologist.
This is a non-randomized, unblinded dose-titration study to evaluate different "doses" of virtual reality to impact moderate-to-severe pain in patients living with cancer. After consenting to participate, in addition to usual pharmacologic pain management, participants will receive 1 week of VR daily for 10 minutes per session, then 1 week of VR twice a day for 10 minutes per session, then 1 week of VR use as desired by the participants.
In this project, the investigators hope to evaluate effective methods of communication with patients with multiple sclerosis regarding habits of physical activity, sleep, and diet. Currently, there is weak evidence regarding how to deliver adequate information at scale in the clinics with respect to diet, exercise, and sleep. It is unclear if receiving structured information impacts patient-reported outcomes in multiple sclerosis (MS). The study team hopes to evaluate the efficacy of after visit direct patient messaging in promoting any behavioral changes, the sustainability of those behavioral changes, and most importantly, if those changes impact patient-reported sense of self-efficacy in the participants disease management. In addition, the study team hopes that the data collected during this study will provide answers on how providing wellness strategies impacts patient reported outcomes, markers of behavior, and sense of disease progression.
This study will compare two methods of electrical stimulation (alternating current and direct current) as an adjunctive therapy to treating peripheral neuropathy. Both types of electrical stimulation have been used in clinical practice for physical therapy, however direct current stimulation is much less common and there is less known about their impact on physical therapy outcomes. The aim of this project is to show the efficacy of a novel device, the Neubie direct current device, compared to traditional TENS unit, in clinical physical therapy treatment of neuropathy. Outcomes measured will include three methods of two-point discrimination, vibration sense, pain, and score on the modified Toronto Clinical Neuropathy scale.
The purpose of this study is to validate the real-world performance of a previously developed Artificial Intelligence - Electrocardiogram (AI-ECG) algorithm for identification of hyperkalemia with a six-lead mobile-enhanced device .
This study seeks to pilot an evaluation of whether an external jugular vein compression collar approved by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for contact sports can provide symptomatic relief of venous pulsatile tinnitus. Furthermore, the study will evaluate quality of life impacts of the device and adherence by users.
The purpose of this study is to determine recommended phase 2 dose(s) (RP2Ds) of JNJ-80038114 in Part 1 (dose escalation) and to determine the safety at the RP2D(s) in Part 2 (dose expansion).
