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 study design is a prospective observational study in adolescents who are at risk for developing Type 2 Diabetes (T2D), to evaluate the effectiveness of sparkling water to reduce dietary intake of added sugars and thereby improve glycemia. Study data on consumption and the flavor profile of sparkling water will serve as a measure of acceptability. The study intervention will be to provide carbonated flavored sparkling water for 12 weeks to adolescents (and their families) who have a usual intake of 2 or more servings of sugar sweetened beverages (SSB) per day and are at a high risk for developing type 2 diabetes. Study measures will be obtained before and after the exposure to carbonated flavored sparkling water and each participant will serve as his/her own control. To encourage the participants to substitute the carbonated flavored sparkling water, study personnel will send them weekly iMessages through the Technology Assisted Dietary Assessment (TADA) app. In addition, investigators will monitor the participants' diet, using the TADA app, every two weeks, for 4 days. Study measurements will be obtained at baseline, before the intervention, during and at the end of the 12 week intervention. Objective: Determine the effect of reducing added sugars intake by substituting carbonated sparkling water on T2D risk in adolescents. Hypothesis: Adolescents who decrease consumption of SSB by substituting sparkling water will experience decreased blood glucose concentrations and increased insulin sensitivity during an oral glucose tolerance test and decreased glucose excursions during continued glucose monitoring, compared to those who do not decrease consumption of SSB.
The study is a randomized controlled trial (RCT) that assesses the effectiveness of a metacognitive self-control training intervention (MCT) in conjunction with virtual-reality job interview training (VR-JIT) in a sample of formerly incarcerated individuals. The study also includes an implementation evaluation.
This is a randomized, wait-list control pilot study to analyze the impact of a 12-week exercise training intervention on post-traumatic growth and whole-person well-being (mental health, physical health, spiritual well-being, perceived social support, and occupational health) among shift-working acute care nurses within AdventHealth.
This is a clinical study that aims to determine the effective dose of music listening duration that is required to reduce anxiety in patients awaiting scheduled cesarean section. It will also compare types of music to accomplish this goal, both of which have been shown effective in prior studies. Methods will involve enrolling and playing music for patients awaiting scheduled C-section, and scoring their anxiety with pre- and post-music questionnaires. Music duration for each subject will be predetermined, and analysis of response will be performed to determine the effective dose 95%, or dose at which 95% of subjects should have a positive response.
This study aims to characterize patients with diabetic macular edema (DME), their progression, the treatment received and associate the functional and physiological outcomes related to the treatment.
