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.
This pilot trial evaluates the feasibility of a group diet education program for stage I-IV colorectal cancer survivors. Providing a nutrition education program for colon and rectal cancer survivors may help them have better access to the tools necessary to make healthy food decisions that can impact their cancer outcomes.
The goal of this study is to examine in vivo thrombosis characteristics with ultrasound shear wave elastography (SWE) and determine the relationship with thrombus resolution and postthrombotic syndrome (PTS) in patients with acute proximal Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT).
This trial investigates how well bright white light therapy works in improving sleep, fatigue, distress, depression, and anxiety, side effects that are often experienced during an intense leukemia treatment regimen, in hospitalized leukemia patients. Bright white light therapy may help to control these symptoms, and information from this study may help doctors and nurses learn more about methods for decreasing these symptoms.
A randomized comparison clinical trial will be conducted in laparoscopic radical prostatectomy patients in the Weinberg PACU at the Johns Hopkins Hospital. 50 patients will be recruited and randomly assigned by a table of random numbers to either the music listening group (n=35) or the relaxation breathing group (n=35).
The primary goal of this uncontrolled pilot trial is to examine feasibility, acceptability, safety, and preliminary efficacy of a new behavioral treatment for survivors of sudden cardiac arrest with clinically elevated symptoms of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Participants will be recruited among cardiac arrest survivors enrolled in the observational CANOE research study (CUIMC IRB# AAAR8497). Study participants will be interviewed about their symptoms and evaluated for baseline assessment before receiving eight weekly sessions of an acceptance and mindfulness-based exposure therapy (AMBET). Participants will be additionally evaluated at treatment mid-point (week 4), and at the end of treatment. The treatment and all assessments will be conducted remotely via Zoom. To assess whether patients' physical activity is improved over the course of treatment, participants will be provided with a wearable device (Fitbit wristband) to monitor their physical activity. The specific aims of this study are to: (1) develop an acceptable protocol for an AMBET intervention for survivors of sudden cardiac arrest with elevated PTSD symptoms (2) examine its safety and feasibility in a small sample of 14 patients (3) investigate acceptability and feasibility of the assessments and measurements including physical activity.
The objective of the study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the home-use device ToothWave (Model H7001) for calculus reduction and the prevention of calculus accumulation.
Pomegranate extract (Pomella) is well known for its antioxidant properties due to its phenolic compounds. It has also been shown to increase the amount of short chain fatty acid producing Lactobacillus and Bifidobacteria genera. Short chain fatty acids are thought to have an anti-inflammatory effect on the sebaceous glands. Previous studies have concluded that pomegranate extract may act as a prebiotic in the body and subsequently increasing the gastrointestinal microbial diversity and by producing short chain fatty acids that may have systemic beneficial effects especially on the skin. Therefore, the aim of this study is to assess how Pomella alters the gut microbiome and the blood level of short chain fatty acids in healthy subjects.
The Cooper vitamin D3 study is a randomized study investigating whether daily vitamin D3 supplementation can prevent respiratory tract infections, influenza-like illness and covid-19 in hospital workers.
The purpose of this study is to determine the effects of intermittent forearm cooling on exercise performance in the heat.
The overall goal of this study is to understand the immune response (IgG) to SARS-CoV-2 to fill critical knowledge gaps in the natural history of this virus and to inform the development of future infection mitigation efforts. The study team aims to assess the prevalence of circulating IgG antibodies to SARS-CoV-2 and the factors associated with sero-prevalence. These data will be used to estimate the total population that has been exposed to the virus (asymptomatic and symptomatic), the proportion of the population that may be protected by natural immunity, and the proportion that is susceptible. Data obtained from this research will be shared with the Florida Department of Health.
