Filter by:Rural communities in the southern U.S. suffer a disproportionate burden of morbidity and mortality from cardiometabolic disease, with traditional risk factors explaining only a modest proportion of the excess burden of disease. There is considerable evidence that multiple dimensions of sleep health, including sleep duration, efficiency, timing, and regularity, as well as the disorders sleep apnea and insomnia, affect cardiometabolic disease risk. However, there is currently a lack of systematically developed sleep data in rural populations. The RURAL Sleep Study is an ancillary study to a recently initiated longitudinal epidemiology study in rural Appalachia and Mississippi Delta (the RURAL Study). The RURAL Sleep Study will add measures of sleep health to the complex individual, social and environmental factors and health outcome measures being evaluated by the RURAL Study, by incorporating minimally burdensome measures of multiple dimensions of sleep health. The results are expected to inform health care providers, public health officials, and the general public of the prevalence, risk factors, and consequences of impaired sleep health in these rural communities, providing a critical basis for prevention, recognition, and management of sleep disorders and improvement of sleep and cardiometabolic health.
There are loads of research on knee surgery, including surgical methods, rehabilitation strategies, and complication prevention. Whether it is general surgery or endoscopic surgery, there may be postoperative joint swelling, which may last for several weeks depending on the patient's condition. Therefore, reducing swelling as soon as possible is important in post-operative treatment. Swelling of the knee joint may increase soft tissue tension, causing pain and discomfort, and affecting the range of motion and functional recovery of the joint. It may also affect wound healing and increase the risk of complications such as infection and thrombosis. Most clinical research related to traditional Chinese medicine focuses on reducing pain, and little attention is paid to reducing swelling, relatively. Nevertheless most relevant literatures discuss total knee replacement surgery. Cruciate ligament surgery is very common in sports medicine orthopedics. It is expected that ordinary patients get function recovery quickly after surgery, and athletes can return to play as soon as possible. This study is a prospective study, with partially double-blinded, randomized controlled study design. The investigators are aiming to TCM intervention for knee swelling after cruciate ligament surgery, and evaluation of postoperative swelling and functional improvement. TCM intervention methods are laser acupuncture and external application of herbal medicine.
The overall objective of the proposed study is to determine if Dexmedetomidine HCl (BXCL501) is safe for treatment of alcohol use disorder (AUD) with comorbid posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) in an outpatient setting and also shows potential signals of efficacy thereby supporting the conduct of later phase clinical trials.
Evaluating the Efficacy and safety of Adebrelimab in Combination with Platinum-based Doublet Chemotherapy and SHR-8068 as First-line Therapy for Patients with Advanced or Metastatic NSCLC Carrying STK11/KEAP1/KRAS Mutations
This is an observational study in which participants receive a treatment which is already available for doctors to prescribe for non-metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (nmCRPC) or metastatic hormone-sensitive prostate cancer (mHSPC). nmCRPC is a prostate cancer that has not yet spread to other parts of the body and does not respond to lowering testosterone in the body. mHSPC is a prostate cancer that has spread to other parts of the body and can be treated by lowering testosterone levels. This study looks at the safety of the study drug, darolutamide, in Korean patients with nmCRPC or mHSPC. Darolutamide is currently available for doctors to prescribe to men with nmCRPC or mHSPC. It works by attaching to the special molecules called androgen receptors (AR) within prostate cells and blocks hormones called androgens from attaching to AR, which helps delay cancer growth. To learn more about the safety of Darolutamide, the researchers will study whether the participants have adverse events. An adverse event is any medical problem that a participant has during a study. Doctors keep track of all adverse events that happen in studies, even if they do not think the adverse events might be related to the study treatments. The researchers will also learn more about how well darolutamide is working in these participants. During this study, the researchers will collect information from the medical records of patients who have been prescribed darolutamide by their doctors. Each participant will be in this study for 1 year. The whole study will last about 6 years. During this time, the participants will visit their doctor every 2 to 4 months as part of their usual care. At these visits, the doctors will do scans to check the patients' cancer and take blood samples. The patients will answer questions about any medications they are taking and whether they have any adverse events.
Cervical laser ablation is an effective, minimally invasive treatment with a low incidence of perinatal complications and minimal impact on fertility. Research has confirmed that laser ablation treatment of cervical HSIL (including CIN2 and CIN3) is effective and feasible and is useful for young CIN3 patients who wish to get pregnant in the future. There have been no randomized clinical trials of laser ablation therapy for cervical HSIL in Chinese women. This study focuses on the application of laser ablation in the treatment of cervical HSIL, explores the efficacy, feasibility, and safety of laser ablation in the treatment of cervical HSIL, and strives to promote the reasonable application of laser ablation in the treatment of cervical HSIL.
The goal of this mechanistic study is to investigate the role of incretin hormones on weight loss-induced type 2 diabetes remission.
This is an open-label, randomized, multi-cohort, multi-center, phase Ib/II study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of Adebrelimab plus Irinotecan Liposome (II) with or without Famitinib in patients with extensive-stage small cell lung cancer (ES-SCLC) pre-treated with immune checkpoint inhibitor(s).
Shockwave TEVAR is a nonrandomized, prospective, international, multi-center, PMCF, obervational study. The aim of this study is to evaluate the outcomes of the Shockwave™ Peripheral Intravascular Lithotripsy Balloon (Shockwave Medical Inc.) in the routine treatment of hostile iliac accesses during TEVAR and F/BEVAR.
This is a Phase 1, first-in-human (FIH), multi-center, open-label, non-randomized, dose escalation study, designed to determine the Maximum tolerated dose(MTD)/Recommended Phase 2 dose(RP2D) of LB-LR1109 and to evaluate safety, tolerability, preliminary efficacy, pharmacokinetics, immunogenicity, pharmacodynamics of LB-LR1109, and its impact on quality of life in participants with unresectable and metastatic nonsmall cell lung cancer(NSCLC), head and neck squamous cell carcinoma(HNSCC), renal cell carcinoma(RCC), urothelial carcinoma, or malignant melanoma and no available standard of care treatment options.
