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 compare two different types of scopes that can be used for HoLEP. HoLEP is performed through the urethra using a Laser scope to remove obstructing prostate tissue. Laser scopes come in different sizes (diameters).
Alzheimer's disease and related dementias (ADRD) are serious, life limiting illnesses with no known cure. Dementia is the fifth-leading cause of death in older adults and the majority of people with advanced dementia die in nursing homes (NHs). Miller et al reported that 40% of U.S. NH residents dying with advanced dementia received Skilled Nursing Facility (SNF) care in the last 90 days of life, and receipt of this care was associated significantly with poorer end-of-life outcomes, including a higher risk of dying in a hospital, compared to decedents with no SNF care. SNF care is a Medicare post-acute rehabilitation service delivered in NHs focused on intense rehabilitation and/or aggressive, disease-modifying therapies. Regardless of life expectancy, use of SNF care precludes access to Hospice services. Palliative care (PC) offers an evidence-based alternative.
This is a multi-center, open-label, parallel-cohort-study to evaluate the puffing patterns of healthy adult consumers of tobacco products switching from a usual brand (UB) combustible cigarette (CC) and/or a UB Heated Tobacco Product (HTP) to one of four investigational products (IPs), across two heating modes, over a 28-day ambulatory period.
This study incorporates metacognitive strategy training into semantic feature analysis treatment. Semantic feature analysis treatment has a strong evidence base and capacity to improve word retrieval by encouraging circumlocution. Circumlocution facilitates self-cued naming and assists listener comprehension when naming fails. However, semantic feature analysis treatment does not include direct techniques to teach patients with aphasia to generalize the use of semantic feature analysis treatment's circumlocution procedure. Therefore, this study proposes that combining semantic feature analysis treatment and metacognitive strategy training will stimulate the semantic system and increase patients with aphasias' use of circumlocution across divergent contexts. This study aims to measure the treatment's effect on naming accuracy for trained and untrained items. The study also aim to measure the treatment's effect on people with aphasias' knowledge of the strategy components and changes in verbalizations during retrieval attempts. The central hypothesis is that strategy training will increase patients with aphasias' explicit knowledge about circumlocution and enable them to use it to (1) self-facilitate naming, and (2) produce more informative connected speech.
The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of seltorexant versus placebo on the sum of Agitation and Aggression domain scores (A plus A) of the Neuropsychiatric Inventory-Clinician rating (NPI-C) in participants with probable Alzheimer's Disease (AD) with clinically significant agitation/aggression.
To explore the effects of Partial Body Weight Support (PBWS) within an enriched play environment for infants with Down Syndrome (DS), who are not yet walking, to better understand how PWBS may impact their mobility; exploration; and overall activity level. - Hypothesis1 A: Infants will demonstrate increased movement counts on an ActiGraph during intervention compared to a control phase. Hypothesis 1B: Infants will demonstrate a higher frequency of exploratory behaviors during the intervention as compared to a control phase. - Hypothesis 2: Infants will demonstrate an increased rate of improvement in Gross Motor Function Measure scores after the intervention compared to a control phase. - Hypothesis 3: Infants will demonstrate higher parent-reported mastery motivation on the Dimensions of Mastery Questionnaire after the intervention compared to a control phase.
A single-center, open-label, Phase 1, drug-drug interaction study to investigate the effect of voclosporin on the pharmacokinetics of simvastatin and simvastatin acid in healthy volunteers.
This is an open-label, parallel-group, phase 1, single center study to assess the relative bioavailability of CSL312 administered subcutaneously via a prefilled syringe assembled to an autoinjector compared to a prefilled syringe assembled to a needle safety device in healthy, adult subjects.
The main aim of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of S-217622 versus placebo among outpatient adults with mild and moderate COVID-19 starting intervention within 3 days of symptom onset.
This study tests an adaptation of the HIV Continuum of Prevention, Care, and Treatment Framework (CoPCT) for use in tracking COVID-19 testing and follow-up in a medically and socially vulnerable population. This study uses an integrated research collaborative framework that facilitates dialogue among researchers, community members, and service providers as a tool for optimizing the adaptive intervention and will take place at the Comprehensive Behavioral Health Center (CCHC).
