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.
Assess whether introducing an educational video regarding the benefits, risks, and limitations of genetic testing affects prostate cancer patients' decisional conflict regarding receiving germline genetic testing.
The study is designed as a prospective, randomized, parallel arm, double blinded, pilot clinical trial.The primary objective is to evaluate the efficacy of Sensi-IP +NaF as compared to a NaF toothpaste in the reduction of dentin hypersensitivity in adult participants over 14 days. Study endpoints include Evaporative Air blast Stimuli (Schiff Airblast Sensitivity Score), Tactile Stimuli (Yeaple probe Assessment), Visual Analogue Scale Evaporative Stimuli and the occurrence of adverse events. The study will include 2 study arms: 1. Sodium fluoride toothpaste with Sensi IP (N=23) and 2. Sodium fluoride toothpaste (N=23). Total of 46 participants (ages 18-80 years) with at least one hypersensitive tooth in 2 different quadrants which are anterior to the molars will be enrolled.
The purpose of this study is to explore the effect of music-based mindfulness on stress reduction among East Asian international students.
Tobacco use and secondhand smoke exposure represent critical health disparities in low- and middle-income countries; Armenia and Georgia represent the 11th and 6th highest smoking rates in men globally (51.5% and 55.5%, respectively), but have low rates of smoking in women (1.8% and 7.8%) and few smoke-free homes (38.6%), which can reduce secondhand smoke exposure and tobacco use rates. This study builds on ongoing collaborations between George Washington University, Emory, and national public health organizations in Armenia and Georgia and advancements in local public health infrastructure; it aims to adapt an evidence-based smoke-free home intervention for homes in Armenia and Georgia, develop capacity to deliver the intervention via local community partners and the national quitlines, and test the intervention in a hybrid effectiveness-implementation randomized clinical trial. This work will advance the knowledge base informing strategies to reduce global tobacco-related disparities, as well as the implementation and scale-out of evidence-based interventions in low- and middle-income countries.
The purpose of this study is to examine whether the addition of online yoga classes, compared to health and wellness classes, can improve the amount of weight loss produced from an Internet-based weight loss program. All individuals will receive a 12-month, automated Internet-based weight loss program. Following 3 months of of weight loss treatment, individuals will be randomized to also receive yoga classes or health and wellness classes for 9 months. Assessments will occur at baseline, 3, 6, 12, and 18 months and will include measures of weight, eating behaviors, physical activity, and psychosocial factors.
The present study aims to address gaps in the literature by evaluating the objectively measured dose-response relationship between exercise and depression symptoms; examining changes in resting (Brain-derived Neurotrophic Factor) BDNF from baseline to week 10 of an exercise intervention; and assessing varying exercise intensities on enjoyment, affect, and health-related quality of life in sedentary young adult college students.
Examine if ultra-processed (UP) foods are more effective in activating reward, attention, and memory brain regions and in promoting food cue learning than minimally-processed foods. Assess individual differences in neurobehavioral responses to UP foods.
The goal of the DIVA trial is to test the effectiveness of at-home diaphragmatic breathing exercises with bladder hygiene education in female patients with symptoms of difficulty urinating (dysfunctional voiding). It aims to answer how effective are at-home diaphragmatic breathing exercises for dysfunctional voiding. Researchers will compare two groups of participants (a group using diaphragmatic breathing exercises with bladder hygiene education versus a group using just bladder hygiene education alone) for a total of 4 weeks. Participants will complete weekly surveys on their symptoms.
Patients with visual acuity and ocular characteristics outside the Novasight FDA multi-center study are to perform the same Curesight procedures- including M&S EVA or eETDRS patched acuity, stereo and then utilize the Curesight device 1.5 hours per day, 6 days per week over 3-6 months to determine treatment efficacy.

The goal of this interventional treatment study is to assess the anxiolytic effect of providing guided meditation during radiation treatment (RT) in patients with brain tumors. The main question it aims to answer is: • What is the change in acute anxiety in participants receiving the mindfulness intervention during radiation therapy compared to standard of care control conditions? Participants will be asked to participate in a 5-minute, audio-recorded mindfulness practice that will be played during the administration of each RT session. Researchers will compare this intervention to standard of care (no intervention) during RT.
