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 goal of this study is to test whether active duty firefighters find it possible and suitable to do cranial electrotherapy stimulation (CES) at home, and test whether CES influences measures of stress. The main questions it aims to answer are: - is CES feasible and acceptable in a population of firefighters, and - does CES changes feelings of fatigue, anxiety, and brain connectivity in firefighters. Participants will - complete four weeks of CES at home, and - complete daily assessments of fatigue and anxiety, and maybe asked to - complete an MRI scan before and after CES, and - wear a device to measure their heart rate and sleep quality.
The purpose of this study is to investigate orthopedic patients undergoing either a total hip replacement (THR) or total knee arthroplasty (TKR) using two dietary supplements, PREPARE and RECOVER, and their recovery times post-surgery.
Background: Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a tool for getting pictures of the tissues and organs inside the body. MRI can help diagnose many injuries and diseases. But not all patients are equally likely to receive MRIs. Factors such as race or ethnicity, distance to imaging centers, mobility, and a lower income can limit some people s access to MRIs. A new ultra-low field (ULF) type of MRI, which can be used on a vehicle, may help take imaging scans to more people. But researchers need to know that UFL-MRI works just as well as standard MRIs. Objective: To learn whether UFL-MRI is as good as standard MRI at detecting neurological disorders. Eligibility: People aged 3 years or older who have or show symptoms of neurological disease (such as stroke, cancer, or epilepsy). Healthy adults are also needed. Design: Participants will have 1 or 2 study visits. Adult participants will have a physical exam. They will receive two MRI exams: - Standard MRI. They will lie still on a narrow bed that will move into a large tube. They will wear earplugs to muffle the sounds. - ULF-MRI. They will lie on a stretcher, and only their head will be inside a smaller tube. The noises will be quieter. They will wear earplugs to muffle the sounds. Some adults may receive a contrast agent given through a small tube attached to a needle in the arm. The contrast agent helps the researchers see differences in the body more clearly. This may be done during 1 or both MRIs. Children will have only 1 ULF-MRI. Some participants may be invited to have additional visits for up to 6 months.
This phase II/III trial compares the addition of nivolumab to the usual treatment of paclitaxel and ramucirumab to paclitaxel and ramucirumab alone in treating patients with gastric or esophageal adenocarcinoma that may have spread from where it first started to nearby tissue, lymph nodes, or distant parts of the body (advanced). A monoclonal antibody is a type of protein that can bind to certain targets in the body, such as molecules that cause the body to make an immune response (antigens). Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as nivolumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Ramucirumab is a monoclonal antibody that may prevent the growth of new blood vessels that tumors need to grow. Paclitaxel is in a class of medications called antimicrotubule agents. It stops cancer cells from growing and dividing and may kill them. Adding nivolumab to ramucirumab and paclitaxel may work better to treat patients with advanced stomach or esophageal cancer.
This study aims to evaluate the THRIVE clinical pathway at HUP-Cedar, focusing on supporting Medicaid-insured individuals, including those with serious mental illness, following hospitalization. The study will assess clinician/administrator perspectives on the pathway's feasibility, appropriateness, and acceptability and analyze referral patterns and post-discharge outcomes. The objectives are: 1. To conduct a qualitative study evaluating the implementation of THRIVE, particularly its adaptation to include patients with serious mental illness. 2. To examine referral patterns, 30-day readmission rates, and ED utilization for THRIVE participants, comparing them with those receiving standard care. Participants will be referred to home care services during hospitalization and seen by a home care nurse within 48 hours post-discharge. A discharging physician or Advanced Practice Provider will oversee care for 30 days or until a primary care or specialist visit. The Care Coordination Team will hold weekly case conferences for 30 days post-discharge to address both health and mental health needs. The study will compare outcomes of Medicaid-insured patients, including those with serious mental illness, to those receiving usual care.
This is an open label study to investigate PK of tenapanor and AZ13792925 in breast milk of lactating female subjects.
The proposed project is an intensive multi family therapy (MFT) intervention involving patients with anorexia nervosa and their families. MFT interventions are informed from the principles of the family based treatment (FBT)/family therapy for Anorexia Nervosa (FT-AN) models. This program will offer families in vivo/virtual support while connecting with other families to increase knowledge of eating disorders and develop skills related to successfully supporting their adolescent during difficult times, including meal support and affect regulation. Our objective is to explore the influence of the MFT intervention on the primary outcome measures in eating disorder treatment, including weight, expressed emotion and eating disorder symptomatology.
The goal of this randomized trial is to test the effectiveness of two universal classroom-based mindfulness social and emotional learning (SEL) programs (one for students and one for teachers) by examining behavioral outcomes on 5th and 6th grade students and their teachers. The main questions it aims to answer are: - What are the singular and combined effects of a mindfulness-based SEL education programs for teachers and their students on the development of students' and their teachers' social, emotional, and cognitive competence, and well-being? - Can mindfulness-based SEL education programs for students and teachers foster the creation of caring, inclusive, equitable, and collaborative classroom contexts? - Can mindfulness-based SEL education programs support the development of students' and teachers' prosocial attitudes, mindsets that positively impact student learning? - Are the effects durable beyond the end of the programs with regard to the singular and combined mindfulness-based SEL interventions? A total of 24 classrooms will be randomized into one of three study conditions: 1. Mindfulness SEL program for Educators only 2. Mindfulness SEL program for Educators and Mindfulness SEL program for Students in combination, and 3. "Business as usual" (comparison groups in which regular classroom SEL curricula is implemented). Data will be obtained via multiple objective and subjective methods (e.g., self- and teacher-reports, peer behavioral assessments) from different sources (e.g., self-, peer-, and teacher-reports). Data will also be collected to monitor implementation of the two programs. To explore the ways in which these two programs impact student, teacher, and classroom outcomes, data will be analyzed to compare students and teachers in the three conditions. In Phase One (year one), the investigators will conduct an experimental "outcome" study to examine the singular and combined effects of the two programs by comparing pre-test and post-test measures across the three conditions. In Phase Two (year two), the investigators will conduct a six-month follow up with those teachers and students who participated in Phase One in order to determine the degree to which the program effects are durable after the program has ended.
This study was designed to compare the efficacy and safety of I-DXd with treatment of physician's choice in participants with relapsed small cell lung cancer (SCLC).
The New York Stem Cell Foundation (NYSCF) Research Institute is performing this research to accelerate diverse disease research using cells from the body (such as skin or blood cells) to make stem cells and other types of cells, conduct research on the samples, perform genetic testing, and store the samples for future use. Through this research, researchers hope to identify future treatments or even cures for the major diseases of our time.
