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.
Athletic injury can result in decreased athletic performance or removal from sport participation. There may also be psychological and financial impacts of athletic injury. Additionally, there can be long-term consequences, such as increased risk of subsequent injury or arthritis. Therefore, determining ways to prevent athletic injury from occurring is critical. Movement quality during sport is related to injury risk. Athletes who move poorly are generally at increased risk of injury compared to athletes who move well. Movement quality can be improved through exercise-based injury prevention training, thereby decreasing injury risk. This purposed of this study is to evaluate movement quality multiple times over the course of an athletic season in collegiate athletes who perform injury prevention training. The hypothesis is that movement quality will improve over the course of an athletic season.
Randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, 16-week study designed to explore the safety and efficacy of IMC-1 for the treatment of patients with fibromyalgia.
Caregivers of individuals with Alzheimer's disease and related dementia rarely get the preparation or training they need to manage their caregiving responsibilities and to successfully balance their own self-care and their caregiving roles. As a result, caregivers often experience caregiver burden, emotional distress, and substance abuse. Therefore, there is a critical need to support the emotional and social functioning of caregivers to improve their health and well-being and to prevent caregiver burden and poor coping. Problem solving training (PST) is an evidence-based approach that teaches and empowers individuals to solve emergent problems contributing to their depressive symptoms, helps improve coping skills and increases self-efficacy. However, critical gaps in knowledge and care remain regarding the necessary components of training (eg. How many sessions? What is the influence of personal factors?) that affect how effective PST is for individual caregivers. Finally, caregiver interventions have almost exclusively been tested in English-speaking caregivers, further contributing to existing health disparities among minority groups. To address this critical need, Dr. Shannon Juengst, Assistant Professor of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation was awarded a new Texas Alzheimer's Research and Care Consortium Collaborative Research Grant entitled, "Problem Solving Training (PST) for English- and Spanish-speaking Care Partners of Adults with Alzheimer's and Alzheimer's Related Dementia." For this project, Dr. Juengst has assembled a strong, multidisciplinary team with Dr. Gladys Maestre, Professor of Biomedical Sciences and Director of the NIA funded-Alzheimer's Disease Resource Center for Minority and Aging Research and Memory Disorders Center at UT Rio Grande Valley and Dr. Matthew Smith, Associate Professor of Environmental and Occupational Health and Co-Director of the Center for Population Health and Aging at Texas A&M University. This project will establish the necessary guidelines for an evidence-based, implementable problem-solving intervention for both English- and Spanish-speaking caregivers to improve their health and well-being and identify potential mechanisms of action for such training.
The purpose of the AcRIS study is to obtain data to characterize the relationship between symptoms and voice features for (reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) confirmed severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), influenza virus, or Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV) positive participants with acute viral respiratory illness. This data will be used as the basis to build voice and symptom algorithm(s) for detection and monitoring of these illnesses. This would benefit vaccine development across several key disease areas, including SARS-CoV-2, influenza virus and RSV. The study also models concepts of more efficient "flexible" clinical trials involving not only voice capture, but also web-based participant recruitment, enhanced participant engagement, and remote sample collection that could make future clinical studies more efficient. The clinical data obtained in this observational study could provide the documentation of the technology's performance needed to enable its deployment in future interventional studies.
D1. Primary Objective: 1. Determine the immunogenicity of FDA approved COVID-19 vaccination in patients with hematologic malignancies D2. Secondary Objectives: 1. Assess the safety of FDA approved COVID-19 vaccination in patients with hematologic malignancies 2. Analyze the kinetics of immunogenic response over time after receipt of the COVID-19 vaccination 3. Compare the immunogenicity of different COVID-19 vaccinations that will be approved by the FDA 4. Analyze advanced flow immunophenotyping of innate and adaptive immune blood cells in all participants and correlate with response to vaccination
To study the change from baseline in IL-1β (interleukin 1 beta) concentrations in the nasal airway during acute asthma exacerbation, specifically to measure the degree of change and identify the timing of peak IL-1β concentration. This information will allow the investigators to estimate effect size and guide decisions about the optimal timing of anakinra administration for the future study.
To assess the efficacy and safety of OTX-DED for the short-term treatment of signs and symptoms of dry eye disease.
The purpose of this pilot study is to explore the benefits of supplementing the WW (formerly Weight Watchers) online program with a cognitive training game (PolyRules!) among adults with overweight or obesity.
The purpose of this research study is to evaluate the clinical outcomes of the use of low-energy segment removal with a micro-interventional irrigation/aspiration port (MICOR-304) to evacuate the lens prior to intraocular lens insertion in subjects undergoing routine cataract surgery.
This is an open-label, Phase 2a clinical study of LL-BMT1 in patients with primary open-angle glaucoma and ocular hypertension. Study subjects will be treated for 7 days with a single dose of LL-BMT1.
