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 the study is to examine the feasibility, acceptability and preliminary efficacy of an acceptance-based, insight-oriented treatment approach for US incarcerated adults. Feasibility and acceptability will be assessed through attendance and retention throughout the intervention period. Primary outcomes include negative affect, psychological flexibility, emotion regulation, purpose in life, impulsivity, and trauma. Changes will be assessed from baseline to post-course, post-course to 6-month follow up, and baseline to 6-month follow up for all primary outcomes. Researchers hypothesize that, 1) retention rates will be similar to previous trials with 70% retention from pre- to post-course; 2) there will be significant baseline-to-post-course reductions in psychological symptoms, impulsivity, and trauma, and an increase in psychological flexibility, purpose in life, and emotion regulation; and 3) there will be significant baseline-to-6-month reductions in psychological symptoms, impulsivity, and trauma, and an increase in psychological flexibility, purpose in life, and emotion regulation.
Point-of-care gastric ultrasound will be used to measure stomach contents postoperative in patients who underwent colorectal surgery. Stomach volume and status (empty or full) will be compared retrospectively to the standard clinical criteria for diet advancement to determine if stomach volume via ultrasound is associated with successful diet advancement, nausea/vomiting, nasogastric tube replacement, length of stay, and other clinical outcomes. Clinicians performing clinical care will be blinded to the ultrasound exam results.
The purpose of this pilot study is to explore the benefits of supplementing the Kurbo online program with a cognitive training game (PolyRules!) among youth ages 7-13 with overweight or obesity.
In a series of controlled, randomized experiments, we will systematically manipulate exposure to health-related messages and/or survey methods to examine the effects on behavioral intention. There are various strategies used to influence health-related decision making and the effects of health behavior have had mixed results. In particular, incentive-based interventions have often failed to increase healthy behavior. We will examine 1) the role of behavioral motivation to increase sleep or exercise and 2) current levels of sleep or exercise when predicting who is interested in a mock RCT invitation to increase each behavior using financial or social incentives. In addition to the above focus on sleep and exercise, we will also examine another important health behavior: vaccination. Embedded within experiments studying effects of incentives on vaccination decisions, will conduct methodological tests. In particular, we will estimate the effects of using different methods of measuring the study outcome (vaccine intention).
Phase 1 open-label study to assess the bioactivity, ocular and systemic safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics of a single dose injections of EYP-1901 at three dose levels: 440 µg, 2060 µg and 3090 µg in subjects with Wet Age Related Macular Degeneration (wAMD)
This is a Phase 2, open label, maximal usage PK and safety study of ARQ-151 cream 0.3% in pediatric subjects (ages 2 to 5 years old) with plaque psoriasis:
A prospective multicenter interventional study will be conducted to enroll women undergoing routine cervical cancer screening to collect cervical liquid-based cytology (LBC) specimen(s). For all subjects, two cervical specimens will be collected, and one placed into Hologic ThinPrep Pap Test collection kit with PreservCyt Solution (also referred to as ThinPrep specimen) and the other into BD SurePath liquid-based Pap test (also referred to as SurePath specimen). Cytology and HR HPV results will be generated and utilized to determine need for subject referral to colposcopy. Collection of an endocervical curettage (ECC) specimen, and biopsy(ies) if applicable, from women who are referred to colposcopy as a follow up will be conducted according to a standardized protocol. Disease status for each subject will be determined based on cytology, HPV test results, and/or consensus histology review of cervical biopsy specimens.
There are nearly one million veterans being treated with long-term opioid therapy (LTOT) for chronic pain. Numerous short and long-term harms associated with LTOT and mounting evidence suggest they have modest or no benefit. Yet, currently available resources to support veterans to taper are inadequate. Primary care, where most LTOT in VHA is prescribed, is overburdened and straining to meet the challenge of caring for patients with chronic pain. A scalable, relatively inexpensive tapering intervention to support primary care and/or to extend the reach of resource-intensive specialty clinics would be of great benefit to veterans who are not deriving sufficient benefit from LTOT. As such, the goal of this study is to develop and test an interactive, theory-informed, multi-component mobile website to enable veterans to safely taper opioids while managing their pain.
The study intervention involves having patients complete a familial cancer risk assessment survey. Those who are found to be at high risk will be offered genetic testing for a panel of hereditary cancers. A "previvor" plan will be created to assist patients and their providers in completing the appropriate follow-up for those with a mutation identified.
We will conduct a three-armed randomized, clinical trial to test the incremental effectiveness of Mobile 360° Video and Motivation and Problem Solving in motivating individuals with Prediabetes to enroll in the Diabetes Prevention Program. all participants will receive notification that they have Prediabetes and education about Prediabetes, Type 2 diabetes, and the Diabetes Prevention Program, some participants will receive the additional interventions
