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 assess the feasibility and efficacy of real-time fMRI neurofeedback for rumination.
The goal of this study is to evaluate whether presenting patient out-of-pocket cost information to the provider at the time of prescribing leads to orders for medications with lower out-of-pocket costs. The Real-Time Prescription Benefits (RTPB) tool has been implemented to randomly selected providers across NYU Langone Health's outpatient physician practices. The RTPB tool provides physicians with information about patient out-of-pocket (OOP) cost for medications at the point of outpatient prescribing. OOP is inclusive of any copay, coinsurance, and deductible that the patient owes given their prescription drug benefit plan. If the physician is submitting a prescription order and a clinically-appropriate alternative with a lower OOP cost is available, an alert with OOP cost information for the drug being initially ordered as well as up to three lower-cost alternatives will be displayed. Implementation of this tool will be analyzed to see if it will lead to reduced out-of-pocket costs on ordered medications when alternatives were available. Because effects could vary along many dimensions (e.g., specialty, drug class, insurance type), secondary analyses will be conducted and stratified along such dimensions. Analyses will be conducted at the prescription order level.
Acne vulgaris is a common disease of both males and females, usually manifesting initially during adolescence. The use of retinoic acid analogues such as adapalene, tazarotene and isotretinoin are also commonly prescribed to treat inflammation; dysregulated sebum production and comedonal acne. This study seeks to evaluate the efficacy and safety of concomitant use of both AMZEEQ® and oral isotretinoin compared to oral isotretinoin only use and to explore sequence dosing of both products as part of a long-term management protocol for acne vulgaris.
The main aim of the study is to learn if soticlestat, when given as an add-on therapy, reduces the number of convulsive seizures in children and young adults with DS. Participants will receive their standard antiseizure therapy, plus either a tablet of soticlestat or placebo for 16 weeks. A placebo looks just like soticlestat but will not have any medicine in it. Participants may continue treatment in an extension study, based on the extension study's entry criteria. Those that want to stop treatment will have a gradual dose reduction during 1 week and then be followed up for 2 weeks.
This study will determine if the implementation of a home-based telehealth high intensity interval exercise-training (HIIT)program can significantly improve cardiometabolic health and physical function in a cohort of individuals with longstanding spinal cord injury (SCI). Results from this study will determine feasibility, overall enjoyment, and health impact of implementing a home-based telehealth HIIT program in individuals with SCI.
Study STS101-007 is a randomized, double-blind, parallel group, placebo-controlled, multicenter study to evaluate the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of single doses of STS101 (dihydroergotamine nasal powder) in the acute treatment of migraine.
Research has documented positive effects of doctor-patient race concordance, suggesting that increasing diversity among healthcare professionals may play an important role in addressing well-documented racial health disparities in the US. It also remains critical to improve the quality of interactions in race discordant doctor-patient relationships. However, as health systems consider policies to increase the number of minority healthcare professionals, especially among doctors, questions about the equilibrium effects of such initiatives naturally emerge. In this project, the investigators examine whether and how patients vary their perceptions of healthcare professionals by race.
Lung cancer screening rates are very low despite the fact that lung cancer screening could save many lives. People need to understand the risks and benefits to screening as well as their own beliefs about screening. This study builds an intervention in real world primary care that will help people make the right decision for them as well as help people to quit smoking. Interventions like this are needed to improve the screening rate and reduce death from lung cancer, which is the leading cancer killer.
Two-thirds of the US population, particularly African Americans (AA), is at risk for inadequate or deficient 25-hydroxy-vitamin D (25(OH)VD). Epidemiological studies demonstrate an association between better health outcomes and higher blood levels of 25(OH)VD . Randomized controlled clinical trials have shown that, while supraphysiological high doses of VD are needed to achieve adequate blood levels of 25(OH)VD, not all subjects respond to them. Recent studies have also questioned the therapeutic effects of high-dose VD supplementation. Severe VD deficiency has been associated independently with the future risk of mild cognitive impairment (MCI) and dementia. A reduction in GSH and an increase in the oxidative stress levels of serum, erythrocytes, and circulating lymphocytes has been observed in MCI and Alzheimer disease, findings similar to those in VD deficient persons. Scholarly reviews conclude that excess oxidative stress is one of the major risk factors for AD and support a potential therapeutic role for L-cysteine (LC, a GSH precursor) and vitamin D (VD) supplementation in the treatment of Alzheimer disease symptoms. This application presents the investigators' design for a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial to test the hypothesis that supplementation with VD in combination with L-cysteine (LC) is more successful at optimizing the statuses of 25(OH)VD [biological signatures] and simultaneously decreasing TNF-α, IR [functional or clinical outcomes], and oxidative stress, suggesting a better therapeutic approach compared with supplementation with VD alone in AA subjects.
This study integrates the Mental Health Research Network (MHRN) suicide risk models into Opioid Wizard, an electronic health record (EHR) clinical decision support (CDS) to identify and treat patients at high risk of opioid use disorder (OUD)/overdose or diagnosed with OUD, to alert primary care clinicians (PCCs) to patients at elevated risk for suicide and guide them through structured suicide risk assessment. In both intervention and control clinics, suicide risk scores will be calculated for all Opioid Wizard-eligible patients and relevant EHR data to inform analyses will be archived. In intervention clinics, Opioid Wizard will alert PCCs to Opioid Wizard-eligible patients who are at increased risk of suicide and coach them through use of the Columbia Suicide Severity Risk Scale (CSSRS), a structured tool in the EHR that will help PCCs assess immediate suicide risk. Based on the resulting CSSRS score, Opioid Wizard will provide EHR links for risk-based referrals and follow-up recommendations, including care as usual, routine or emergent referral to behavioral health, or transportation to the emergency department (ED) for further assessment. Primary outcome measures include completion of CSSRS assessments for at-risk patients and patient engagement in outpatient mental health care.
