Aberrations are the spreading of light from a point focus. Aberrations of the eyes can be objectively evaluated with a wavefront aberrometer. Lower order aberrations such as defocus and astigmatism can be corrected with glasses and traditional/disposable soft contact lenses. Patients with ectatic corneal disease, such as keratoconus, or irregular astigmatism cause by surgery, trauma or disease, experience vision that is unlikely to be adequately corrected with glasses or disposable soft contact lenses due to higher order aberrations (HOA). HOA's cause halos, flare, glare, starbursts, doubling, smearing or ghosting of vision. Specialty contact lenses, such as scleral lenses, can be used to mask the irregularity of the cornea, reducing HOA's and improving vision. In many patients the resultant vision, though improved, still has some level of residual HOA's affecting the quality of vision. Custom scleral lenses with customized wavefront guided optics can be used to reduce residual HOA's and improve vision further. These lenses have been referred to as higher order aberration correcting scleral lenses or HOA correcting sclerals and wavefront guided scleral lenses or WFG sclerals.
The overall objectives of the proposed research are to develop a brief telehealth counseling intervention to provide support for people living with HIV and experiencing suicidal ideation, and to support HIV care engagement. The investigators hypothesize that a brief telehealth counseling intervention will be safe (participants in the clinical trial will not have increased risk of suicidal behavior), acceptable (high patient retention and satisfaction, high fidelity), and will demonstrate preliminary efficacy (reduced suicidal ideation, improved care engagement, improved mental well-being).
Pragmatic, controlled, prospective, randomized, open-label (open-label), evaluator-blind clinical trial (PROBE design) that will analyze the benefits of dapagliflozin treatment in patients with severe aortic stenosis discharged after implantation of an aortic valve prosthesis transcatheter (TAVI).
This trial studies how well an enhanced tobacco intervention protocol (ETIP) works compared to standard treatment in helping head and neck and lung cancer patients starting treatment to reduce cigarette use. ETIP is an evidence-based tobacco cessation program including specialized one-to-one and telehealth counseling, drug therapy, nicotine replacement therapy, and frequent patient follow up. ETIP may help reduce smoking and improve cessation in patients with head and neck squamous cell cancer or non-small cell lung cancer.
This clinical trial studies use of F-18 16 alpha-fluoroestradiol ([F-18] FES) positron emission tomography (PET)/computed tomography (CT) in measuring tumor hormone receptor expression in patients undergoing endocrine-targeted therapy for newly diagnosed breast cancer or breast cancer that has come back or spread to other places in the body. Comparing results of diagnostic procedures done before, during, and after hormone therapy may help measure a patient's response to treatment.
This is a Phase 1/2, open-label, multi-center, single arm basket study evaluating the administration of lerapolturev ± anti programmed cell death protein 1 (PD 1)/programmed death-ligand 1 (PD L1) monoclonal antibody (mAb) (which will be referred to throughout this protocol as "anti-PD-1/L1 therapy") therapy in adult patients with solid tumor cancers. Non-muscle invasive Bladder Cancer has been selected as the tumor specific cancer of interest for enrollment.
The DanNORMS study is a phase 3, non-inferiority clinical trial examining whether treatment of active multiple sclerosis with rituximab is non-inferior to ocrelizumab regarding efficacy and safety.
Sacubitril-valsartan, an Angiotensin Receptor Blocker-Neprilysin Inhibitor (ARNI), currently marketed for the management of heart failure, has been shown to reduce cardiovascular morbidity and mortality in stage C heart failure with reduced ejection fraction. In stage C HFpEF, sacubitril-valsartan has also been shown to reduce left atrial volume index measured using echocardiography over a 9 month timeframe. The PARABLE study investigates the hypothesis that sacubitril-valsartan can provide benefits in terms of left atrial structure and function as well as left ventricular structure and function in asymptomatic (stage A/B HFpEF) patients. This is a prospective, randomised, double-blind, double-dummy, phase II study design. The patient population will have hypertension and/or diabetes together with preserved ejection fraction, elevated natriuretic peptide (NP) and abnormal left atrial volume index (LAVI, > 28 mL/m2).
To evaluate the feasibility of subantimicrobial -dose (SD) doxycycline to improve outcomes of nonsurgical management of elbow tendinopathy via matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) inhibition as well as evaluate if participants will be compliant to with prescribed medication and exercise treatment. Our working hypothesis is that patients with elbow tendinopathy will be receptive to treatment with SD-doxycycline and compliant with the prescribed treatment.
