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 determine if MI Paste affects the bacteria and fungus present within the mouth, as well as to determine if MI Paste increases denture comfort and retention. MI Paste is a water-based topical dental product that is available without a prescription. It is generally used to treat dental/tooth hypersensitivity (sensitive teeth) in patients and/or to help re-mineralize the tooth enamel in patients. Within this study, there is an off-label use for research subjects to apply above the upper denture.
The goal of this prospective, observational study is to evaluate for the presence of vocal fold motion impairment (VFMI) in the children admitted to the pediatric intensive care unit on noninvasive positive pressure ventilation (NIV PPV). Participants will have two ultrasounds of their vocal folds performed, once while on NIV PPV and once after weaned off of the NIV PPV. This results of these scans will be reviewed against one another and against the gold standard, fiberoptic nasolaryngoscopy (FNL). The main question this study aims to answer is: Can POCUS be used to reliably detect VFMI while pediatric patients on supported with NIV PPV?
The investigators are conducting a trial that evaluates the feasibility of telehealth group pain reprocessing therapy (PRT), with no comparison group, for the treatment of chronic back pain in a population of veterans. PRT is a psychotherapy for chronic pain that aims to help patients reconceptualize their pain as a non-dangerous signal. It has been shown to be effective in a previous RCT (n=151).
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn how well and at what doses gadopiclenol, a new intravenous (IV) contrast agent used for MRI, works to produce high-quality MRI images of the heart, in patients with a history of congenital heart disease, when compared to gadobenate dimeglumine, the IV contrast agent that is normally used at our institution for heart (cardiac) MRI. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Does using gadopiclenol result in similar or superior image quality, similar signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), and similar flow measurements with 4-dimensional (4D) flow cardiac MRI when compared to gadobenate dimeglumine? - At what dose(s) does gadopiclenol result in similar image quality (using the above metrics) for cardiac MRI when compared to gadobenate dimeglumine? Researchers will compare cardiac MRI images obtained after administration of gadopiclenol to cardiac MRI images obtained after administration of gadobenate dimeglumine (called the standard of care treatment) to see if the images are of similar or superior quality. Participants will: - Be randomized to receive either gadopiclenol at one of three different doses or gadobenate dimeglumine before their congenital heart cardiac MRI - Undergo their congenital heart cardiac MRI as they would during the course of normal clinical care.
The goal of this clinical trial is to explore how working a 4-day schedule impacts nurse manager wellbeing and job performance. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Do those working 4-days have improved wellbeing with reduced levels of burnout and work/family conflict when compared to those in the control group? - Do levels of sleep, heart rate variability, and physical activity significantly differ between those working the 4-day schedule change and those in the control group? - Are nurse manager satisfaction, patient satisfaction, and patient quality outcomes different among those working the 4-day schedule change and those in the control group? Researchers will compare those working the 4-day schedule change to those working the standard 5-day schedule to determine causality between the intervention and the outcomes. Participants will: - Complete an initial visit to learn about the study. - Begin wearing an OURA ring, which will collect data on physical activity, sleep, and heart rate variability. They will need to download the Oura Ring app on their phone and log in weekly to sync data so that the researchers may access it. - Complete the first survey on the online REDCap platform (baseline). - Begin the work schedule that was assigned to them. - Clock in and out of work each shift. - Take the follow-up survey online (month 3). - Take the final survey online (month 6).
Background: High-grade neuroendocrine carcinomas (HGNEC) are cancers that develop in different parts of the body, including the digestive tract, genitals, neck, and head. One drug (belinostat), combined with 2 other drugs (etoposide and cisplatin), is approved to treat HGNEC. But some people may have a gene variant that affects how quickly their body gets rid of the drug; these people may do better with different dosages of belinostat. Objective: To test higher or lower doses of belinostat based on gene variants in people with HGNEC. Eligibility: People aged 18 years and older with HGNEC. Design: Participants will be screened. They will have a physical exam with blood tests. Some blood will be used for genetic testing. They will have imaging scans and a test of their heart function. Samples of tumor tissue may be collected. All 3 study drugs (belinostat, etoposide, cisplatin) are given through a tube attached to a needle inserted into a vein. Treatment will be given in 21-day cycles. For cycles 1 through 6: Participants will come to the clinic for the first 4 days. They will be given all 3 drugs. Imaging scans and other tests will be repeated. Each visit will last 4 to 8 hours. After cycle 6: Participants may continue treatment with belinostat alone. They will come to the clinic for the first 3 days of each cycle. They may continue treatment for up to 5 years if the drug is helping them. Participants will have a follow-up visit 30 days after their last dose of belinostat. Then they will receive follow-up visits by phone or email every 3 to 6 months.
The purpose of this study is to learn if a three-dimensional (3D) printed airway splint device made to hold open a collapsing airway is a safe and effective treatment of Tracheobronchomalacia (TBM) in children. The airway splint is bioresorbable, meaning the child's body will absorb the splint over about five years.
The purpose of the study is to assess drug-drug interaction (DDI) and safety of AZD4041 and itraconazole in healthy participants (Part 1), and to assess efficacy, safety, pharmacokinetics (PK) and pharmacodynamics (PD) of AZD404 when administered with buprenorphine/buprenorphine + naloxone in participants with moderate to severe opioid use disorder (OUD)
This is a Phase 1, first in human (FIH), double-blind, placebo-controlled, single ascending dose (SAD) trial to assess the safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics (PK) of intravenously (IV) or subcutaneously (SC) injected ALIA-1758 in healthy male and female participants.
Cephalosporin antibiotics are commonly used but can result in allergic reactions and anaphylaxis. There is no clear diagnostic approach for cephalosporin-allergic patients, and guidance for the use of other antibiotics in allergic patients is based on side chain chemical similarity and limited skin testing evidence. This project includes a clinical trial and mechanistic studies to optimize the approach to cephalosporin allergy and advance future diagnostics.
