Filter by:The aim of this study is to validate a new hybrid (ecological + virtual) decision-making tool. The difference in behavior (risky choices) between the "hybrid" task and the "virtual" task will be evaluated.
Kidney Disease Improving Global Outcomes (KDIGO) has recently updated the Clinical Practice Guideline for the Evaluation and Management of Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD). This update follows large placebo-controlled randomized trials, which established sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) as an additional treatment option to reduce the risk of progression to kidney failure and cardiovascular disease in patients with CKD, both with and without diabetes or albuminuria. As a result, SGLT2i is now recommended to a broad range of CKD patients by KDIGO, along with established medical therapies such as renin-angiotensin system inhibition (RASi). Despite the significant adverse consequences of CKD and substantial evidence supporting guideline-directed medical therapy (GDMT) to improve patient outcomes, awareness of CKD among patients and providers remains disproportionately low. Innovative solutions are needed to increase awareness of CKD. Such a solution could potentially be the use of electronic nudge letters delivered to patients with CKD and their general practitioners (GPs) that highlight the importance of GDMT and inform them of updated guidelines. This study will investigate whether digital nudge letters delivered via the official Danish electronic letter system directly to patients with CKD and their associated GPs will improve GDMT in patients with CKD when compared to no letters.
The goal of this behavioral, interventional clinical trial is to provide a specialized workshop training for dental providers (e.g., dentists, hygienists, assistants) to improve interactions with young children (2-10 years old) and parents/caregivers. The training is derived from a well-established behavior management program for preschoolers, Parent-Child Interaction Therapy (PCIT). The main questions it aims to answer are: - Change in behavior of dental providers - Acceptability of training by dental providers All participants will receive the same behavior training; however, one group will receive the training on a delayed schedule. Researchers will compare the immediate intervention and control group to see if the training was effective in the dental providers usage of skills.
We will examine how stimulation of specific brain areas with transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) or transcranial electric stimulation (tES) changes specific aspects of behavior and brain activity, in order to test hypotheses about brain behavior relationships (basic research).
