To determine the comparison between effects of Motor Relearning Program (MRP) and Neuro-Development Treatment (NDT) on balance and gait in chronic ischemic stroke patients.
To determine the effect of Motor Relearning Program versus Mirror Therapy for balance and gait in chronic ischemic stroke patients
The purpose of this study is to determine the effect of normal temperature and 37℃ non-ionic contrast agent acting on ERCP-related cholangeitis after endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) in the treatment of hilar cholangiocarcinoma.
Autologous monocyte-derived dendritic cells pulsed with tumor lysate (PV-001-DC) will be given to a group of 3 people. If this is found to be safe, it will be given to up to 7 other people, for a total of up to 10 people in this arm. This will be the first study of PV-001-DC. Eligible patients must be progressing after having completed prior therapy with a PD-1/PD-L1 antagonist alone or in combination with anti-CTLA-4. If the patient is positive for BRAF, the patient must have progressed on at least one BRAF inhibitor in addition to a PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitor alone or in combination with CTLA-4 for metastatic melanoma. Although other kinds of dendritic cells (DCs) have been approved to treat some forms of cancer, they have not been approved to treat melanoma. PV-001-DC is a special kind of DCs that is combined with tumor lysate. The study procedures will start with the removal of a small amount of tumor tissue processed into protein fragments (lysate). There will also be collection of white blood cells through apheresis (a procedure in which blood is drawn from a patient and separated into its different cell types), the white blood cells will be collected and the remainder returned to the patient. Dendritic cells will be grown from the collected white blood cells and combined with the lysate to form PV-001-DC. On the first day of study treatment, patients will go to the clinic and have a needle placed in a vein. The PV-001-DC product will be infused into the patient's vein. Approximately every 3 weeks, for a total of 4 treatments, patients will receive additional infusions of PV-001-DC. Patients will be at the clinic for at least 1 hour following the end of the PV-001-DC infusion and if they feel fine, they may go home. Scans will be performed during the study at different times to see if their tumors have changed in size. Patients will also have their blood and small samples of tumors tested for changes to the immune system. After 365 days, the trial will be completed for that patient. Investigators will monitor patients carefully for any harmful side effects. The side effects in people cannot be completely known ahead of time
The purpose of this arm of the study is to find the best way to give patients this investigational product and determine if it can treat advanced melanoma by stimulating the immune system. PV-001-DV is an attenuated (weakened) strain of dengue virus developed as a potential preventative vaccine for dengue fever by the US Army as Dengue Virus-1 #45AZ5. This is the first time PV-001-DV will be given to patients with melanoma. Up to 4 dose levels of PV-001-DV will tested in this arm. PV-001-DV (at the lowest dose) will be given to a group of 3 people. As each dose level is found to be safe, it will be given to another other 3 people at the next higher dose level, for a total of up to 10 people in this study. Investigators will monitor patients carefully for any harmful side effects. The side effects in people cannot be completely known ahead of time. Patients must be progressing after having completed prior therapy with a PD-1 / PD-L1 antagonist alone or in combination with anti-CTLA-4. If the patient is positive for BRAF, the patient must have progressed on at least one BRAF inhibitor in addition to a PD-1 / PD-L1 inhibitor alone or in combination with CTLA-4 for metastatic melanoma. Patients will have a prescribed amount of PV-001-DV injected into one of their melanoma tumors. Scans will be performed during the study at different times to see if their tumors have changed in size. Patients will also have their blood and small samples of tumors tested for changes to the immune system. After 365 days, the trial will be completed for that patient.
The purpose of this arm of the study is to evaluate the safety of PV-001-DC (autologous monocyte-derived dendritic cells pulsed with tumor lysate) when given in combination with PV-001-DV (Dengue Virus-1 strain #45AZ5) at the dose levels that were identified in the prior 2 arms and to determine if the combination can treat advanced melanoma. Patients will have a prescribed amount of PV-001-DV injected into one of their melanoma tumors. Patients will go to the clinic and have a needle placed in a vein. The PV-001-DC product will be infused into the patient's vein. Approximately every 3 weeks, for a total of 4 treatments, patients will receive additional infusions of PV-001-DC Patients will be at the clinic for at least 1 hour following the end of each PV-001-DC infusion and if they feel fine, they may go home. Approximately 49 days after the first infusion, patients will have a scan to see if their tumors have changed in size. Other scans may be performed during the study at different times. Patients will also have their blood and small samples of tumors tested for changes to the immune system. After 365 days, the trial will be completed for that patient.
This study will evaluate the efficacy of the Graymont X ERIS Knee Splint brace in the postoperative period of ACL reconstruction to improve range of motion, specifically the achievement of terminal extension and time-to-achievement compared to the standard hinged knee brace. This will be directly measured with goniometric angle and heel-height measurements relative to the contralateral side. Other metrics will include standard, validated patient reported outcomes and requirements for additional interventions to treat extension deficits including, but not limited to, additional therapy, intraarticular injections, oral corticosteroids, manipulation under anesthesia, or arthroscopic arthrolysis.
Child-parent screening for familial hypercholesterolemia has been proposed to identify children and their parent who are carrier of mutations and with high risk for inherited premature coronary artery disease. The investigators assessed the efficacy and feasibility of such screening in primary care practice. key scitific questions: 1. The 95th and 99th percentile of finger blood TC in children of 2 years old. 2. Mutations that contribute to high TC status ( serum TC >99th percentiles) compared with international FH48 panel for FH genetc screening.
The aim of this study is to assess the HCV screening rate in Arizona by identification of potential HCV patients/subjects through different methods of communication - text message, email, social media, radio, newspaper ads, and flyers.
