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.
Current clinical assessment tools are often not sensitive enough to detect and treat some subtle (yet troubling) problems after mTBI. In this study, the investigators will use wearable sensors to both assess and treat people with mTBI. Specifically, the investigators will provide immediate feedback, with visual and/or auditory, on movement quality during physical therapy. This immediate feedback on performance may improve outcomes as the investigators will measure multiple body segments including head movements simultaneously with balance and walking exercises. Such complex movements are needed for safe return to high level activity and military duty. The investigators will test this approach against a standard vestibular rehabilitation program. There are few potential risks to this study such as increasing symptoms and a small fall risk. Benefits include physical therapy for balance problems regardless of therapy with or without biofeedback. An indirect benefit is to have data on correct dosage of physical therapy. The investigators will also distinguish which concussion subtype profiles benefit most from physical therapy. This will help healthcare providers and patients by providing more information to help establish clinical guidelines and new tools for physical therapy.
Lymph node metastasis (LNM) is a major prognostic factor in intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ICC), and accurate preoperative prediction of the presence or absence of LNM has significant clinical implications in determining treatment strategy. Despite this, there are currently no reliable biomarkers established to detect LNM in ICC. This study seeks to develop a liquid biopsy assay that can accurately detect LNM before treatment in ICC patients.
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if the areas of stressed cells in the retina correlate to areas of disease identified in standard imaging and whether the images are helpful to identify potential areas of concern before symptoms or disease occurs. The main question it aims to answer is: - to evaluate patterns of increased autofluorescence FPF in the setting of geographic atrophy Participants will undergo FPF imaging using the OcuMet Beacon system.
The goal of this observational study is to understand how diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) relates to other traditional measures and knee function. The main question it aims to answer is: Will regions of known patellar tendon pathology present with smaller DTI scalar parameters, shorter fiber length, and lower fiber density compared to the contralateral tendon and healthy regions in the ipsilateral tendon. Participants will: - undergo MRI and ultrasound imaging - perform knee function test - complete questionnaires
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics of AZD0233 following single and multiple ascending dose (SAD and MAD) administration in healthy participants.
This is a fully remote, site-less, prospective, observational study enrolling adults in the United States (excluding U.S. territories) with undiagnosed neuromuscular symptoms. The main study objective is to evaluate the feasibility of a social media recruitment campaign tied to a participant reported symptom survey and self-administered physical assessment tool to influence undiagnosed participants to seek care for suspected Myasthenia Gravis (MG).
The purpose of the study is to collect and analyze physiological, physical, and molecular data from a diverse population to increase our understanding of how such parameters are associated with health and disease.
The purpose of this research study is to investigate the effects of different forms of a gentle form of electrical stimulation applied to the ear, known as transcutaneous auricular vagus nerve stimulation (taVNS). The research team is interested in how the different forms affect comfort and tolerability, as well as how well it works.
Hepatitis C (HCV) HCV antibody assays are the standard of care test used to screen for HCV, but confirmation of acute infection is relegated in the current US guidelines to polymerase chain reaction (PCR) which often takes multiple days and may result in a loss to follow up and treatment, especially in high prevalence populations. HCV core antigen is a new, research use only immunoassay intended for use on the Abbott Alinity i system, an FDA-cleared instrument for clinical chemistry and immunoassay testing. The aim of the study is to evaluate the 48-hour stability of HCV core antigen in fresh serum and plasma specimens collected from individuals with a detectable HCV viral load (HCL VL), as per a recent antibody assay test, under multiple specimen storage conditions mirroring those employed in clinical laboratories.
This clinical study aims to assess feasibility, safety, tolerability, and compliance of a Nonessential Amino Acid Restriction (NEAAR) medical food in adult patients with locally advanced rectal cancer during standard of care short course radiotherapy followed by standard of care chemotherapy.
