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.
KULEA-NET is a mHealth intervention that will improve knowledge, self-efficacy, and intentions related to exclusive breastfeeding (EBF). These factors have been demonstrated to have a positive influence on breastfeeding (BF) initiation and duration among African American/Black (AA/B) mothers. In the long term, KULEA-NET has great potential to achieve increased BF initiation and EBF rates among AA/B mothers and as a result, improved maternal and infant health outcomes.
Prospective single-masked (study participant will be masked), randomized controlled trial to examine the influence of BMAC on patient-reported outcomes (PROs) in patients with primary knee osteoarthritis.
The purpose of this study is to determine differences in pain, functional patient reported outcomes, and objective imaging parameters following non-operative and meniscus root repair treatment. Furthermore, the long-term goal of this research proposal is to understand the natural history of meniscal root tears and their subsequent repair, in order to better determine risk factors for inferior outcomes and progression to osteoarthritis (OA).
This phase I trial tests the safety, side effects, and best dose of RG1-virus-like particle (VLP) in preventing human papillomavirus (HPV)-related cancers in women. RG1-VLP is a vaccine that aims to protect against rare HPV types not targeted by currently approved HPV vaccines. HPV is a common sexually-transmitted infection that can cause certain genital and oral cancers. RG1-VLP contains a protein of HPV type 16 (HPV16) with a slightly different structure than the licensed Gardasil-9 vaccine. Gardasil-9 is approved by the Federal Drug Administration to help protect against diseases caused by some types of HPV. Gardasil-9 also contains 9 different HPV proteins. Both vaccines contain alum to stimulate the immune system. The usual approach for the prevention of HPV-related cancers for patients who are at increased risk is to consider the currently approved HPV vaccine like Gardasil-9, as well as to be followed closely by their doctor to watch for the development of cancer via routine pap smears. This trial may allow researchers to find out whether the RG1-VLP vaccine can safely trigger an immune response against HPV in healthy women and if it is better or worse than the usual approach for the prevention of HPV-related cancers.
This study is being done to see if people who control HIV without antiretroviral therapy (ART) after receiving an intervention can remain off ART safely. The information collected in this study is also being used to try to understand how people control HIV without ART after receiving an intervention.
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn whether using an anesthetic technique called IPACK block will control pain after ACL reconstruction surgery. The main questions it aims to answer are: - if participants who receive the IPACK block prior to ACL reconstruction experience less pain after surgery and at 1 day after surgery - if participants who receive the IPACK block prior to ACL reconstruction require less short-term opioid use immediately after surgery and up to one week after surgery. Participants will be randomized 1:1 to 1 of 2 groups: Use of IPACK block during ACL reconstruction vs. placebo (a placebo is a look-alike substance that contains no active drug). Neither the participant nor the investigator will know which group the participants has been assigned to. Researchers will compare self-reported pain scores and short-term opioid use of all study participants.
The purpose of this trial is to determine whether a vaping prevention text message program reduces susceptibility to vaping among adolescents and young adults. This study addresses this issue by exposing participants to a vaping prevention text message program over a 28-day period in a randomized controlled trial with a matched attention control condition. A follow-up assessment is also made 4 weeks after the text messaging ends.
The goal of this study is to determine if weight loss or changes can help prevent of delay adults with Down syndrome from developing Alzheimer's Disease Adults with Down syndrome without dementia will be randomized to either a weight loss group or a general health education control group. The weight loss group will be asked to follow a reduced energy diet, attend monthly education sessions delivered remotely and self-monitor diet and body weight using commercially available web-based applications. The control group will be asked to attend remotely delivered monthly education sessions on general health education topics. All participants will come to the University of Kansas Medical Center, 3 times across 12 months for a blood draw, cognitive testing, a MRI, assessment of height and weight, and assessment of diet intake.
This study builds on the tested and refined HEART Camp intervention which has been shown to improve long-term adherence to exercise in individuals diagnosed with heart failure. HEART Camp Connect enhances HEART Camp by delivering the coaching via videoconference and providing access to hospital-based exercise facilities and online exercise programming. This prospective study uses a 2-group, randomized repeated measures experimental design with 3 data collection points baseline, Month 3, and Month 6.
Resistance exercise may immediately lessen the perception of pain. The purpose of this study is compare the effects of an upper body exercise to a lower body exercise on the perception of pain (pressure pain threshold).
