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 study plans to learn more about metabolic responses to aerobic exercise at different times of the day (morning or evening) under fasting versus fed conditions.
The RAINBOW study is a fully remote study focused on understanding and treating behavior problems in young children with tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC). The first goal is to enroll a group of 100 children with TSC between the ages of 3 and 6 years old, with and without problem behaviors, to learn about how best to measure behavioral challenges in TSC and how common these behaviors are during this age period. All families will get feedback from the clinical assessments collected. Eligible children who are experiencing behavior problems will be invited to enroll in a pilot clinical trial of internet-based Parent-Child Interaction Therapy (or PCIT), which is meant to help parents better manage their children's challenging behaviors. Adaptations to PCIT are incorporated to suit the needs of TSC children and families. Some participants will be randomly selected to receive the intervention immediately and others after a 6-month delay, but all families will receive the same intervention. Intervention sessions occur on a weekly basis for up to 20 weeks. Follow-up assessments, which include play interactions, parent interviews, and questionnaires occur about 3 and 6 months after the first visit. The delayed treatment group has an extra brief assessment about 12 months from the initial visit. This study will increase what is known about the types of behavior problems that come up during preschool age in TSC and how best to help children and families with TSC who are experiencing these problems.
The goal of this clinical trial is to determine if a standardized 12-point acupuncture protocol will reduce pain in participants with stable angina. This study addresses the critical need to reduce persistent pain for angina. The investigators long-term goal is symptom management for diverse women and men with angina, targeting additional angina burden borne of social disadvantage Participants will be randomized to a 10-acupuncture session protocol, two treatments per week for five weeks, or an attention control group. Participants will view designated, non-pain related Technology, Entertainment, Design Talks equal to the time spent receiving acupuncture (~7.5-10 hrs.). The investigators will test the efficacy of acupuncture for stable angina/chest pain syndrome to reduce pain and symptoms, improve health-related quality of life, reduce healthcare utilization and and improve patient related health outcomes.
The primary objective of this study is to determine, in unblinded samples, whether artificial intelligence can classify specific blood RNA from patients with long COVID together and separately from apparently healthy normals and other medical conditions which share signs and symptoms of long COVID.
This is a small pilot study with the goal of identifying a superior sputum collection method in Cystic Fibrosis patients unable to produce a sputum. Participants will use the Volara System during clinic visit in an attempt to produce sputum.
This phase II trial tests how well venetoclax works in treating patients with hairy cell leukemia that has come back after a period of improvement (relapsed). Venetoclax is in a class of medications called B-cell lymphoma-2 (BCL-2) inhibitors. It may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking Bcl-2, a protein needed for cancer cell survival.
Lifestyle interventions are effective at producing modest weight loss. One of the strongest predictors of weight loss is food tracking, which involves logging all food and beverage consumed each day in an effort to stay within a daily calorie goal. Standard lifestyle interventions prescribe daily food tracking for the length of the program which can range from 3-24 months. This can be a taxing prescription that is not feasible to do long term for many people. The purpose of this pilot feasibility randomized trial is to test the feasibility of 3 tracking prescriptions during an 8 week digital weight loss intervention: 1) tracking daily, 2) tracking two weeks on and one week off, 3) tracking every other week. Feasibility is defined as tracking prescription compliance, burden, acceptability, and perceived efficacy, and tracking self-efficacy. Diet tracking will be evaluated one month after the intervention ends so that groups can be compared on diet tracking maintenance.
The goal of this observational study is to learn about the mechanism of action of ozanimod in patients with ulcerative colitis (UC). The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. Prospectively assess the effects of ozanimod on the cellular composition of intestinal lamina propria and blood by deep immunophenotyping (CyTOF) of immune cell subsets prior and after the drug's administration. 2. Determine whether changes in cell subsets observed via mass cytometry correlate with with clinical or histologic parameters of disease activity. Colonic biopsies and peripheral blood samples will be collected from patients with UC before and after the onset of ozanimod. Researchers will compare intestinal and peripheral leukocytes before and after the drug's administration.
The purpose of the study is to assess the longitudinal post-operative care effects of protein supplementation on muscle atrophy in the post-operative period following ACL reconstruction. The main outcome will be muscle size/mass as measured using dual energy x-ray absorptiometry (DEXA) scanning. The primary objective is to assess for any beneficial impact of protein supplementation, with implications of standardizing a recommended protocol for protein supplementation after ACL reconstruction. Secondary outcomes will be to evaluate the survey data from the KOOS JR and Tampa Scale surveys, as well as functional measures recorded during physical therapy.
This study wants to make it easier to find kids with a type of epilepsy called childhood absence epilepsy (CAE) who might have problems with ongoing seizures and thinking. Right now, doctors use tests that can be expensive and take a long time. Eysz is developing a system that looks at how kids move their eyes which might help find CAE more quickly and accurately. This study will compare Eysz with the usual tests to see if it can predict seizures and thinking problems in kids with CAE. The goal is to find these problems earlier and help kids do better in school and life.
