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.
To assess the effectiveness of transvaginal radiofrequency oblation by the Morpheus device at varying depths of penetration for improving urge predominate and urinary incontinence symptoms in women with overactive bladder .
The goal of this randomized controlled trial is to compare the effects of a clinical decision support tool consisting of a 48-hour stop order for indwelling urinary catheters versus no clinical decision support in hospitalized patients with indwelling urinary catheters. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Does the presence of an automated stop order integrated as part of a clinical decision support tool reduce dwell time of urinary catheters and the rate of catheter associated urinary tract infections? Participants who have indwelling urinary catheters ordered will be randomized to either have these orders automatically expire after 48 hours unless an action is taken or have orders without expiration. Researchers will compare the urinary catheter dwell time and the rate of catheter associated urinary tract infections between the two groups.
This virtual single-group clinical trial aims to evaluate the effects of the Sahajan Golden Glow Balm on the health and appearance of the skin in the periorbital area over a period of 6 weeks. Participants will apply the product twice daily and complete questionnaires at various intervals. Photos for expert skin grading will be taken at Baseline and Week 6.
The SARS-CoV-2 BioMedomics Rapid Antigen Screening Test (COV-SCAN) is an at-home rapid antigen COVID-19 antigen screening test device. The primary objectives of this study are to 1) Evaluate the clinical performance of COV-SCAN; 2.) Assess the usability of COV-SCAN and the paired app as an over-the-counter product to be used by lay persons in non- laboratory settings. The clinical performance and usability data will be submitted as part of an application for Emergency Use Authorization (EUA) to the FDA. 3) Assess acceptability and feasibility of the COV-SCAN test, paired app, and frequent testing regimen in demonstration projects in university and workforce settings.
Hemorrhagic Myocardial infarctions are at high risk for mechanical complications including cardiac rupture. Prediction of vulnerable myocardial segments is an important step for the stratification of hemorrhagic MI patients. Wall motion index ratio is an important parameter to determine regions of high vulnerability within the 17-segment LV model of hemorrhagic MI.
This is a single-site study evaluating obstetrics and gynecology exam imaging quality by expert users.
Purpose: This study compared administration of midazolam via intravenous route with nasal atomizer route for moderate sedation in an office-based vasectomy clinic.
This project will be a three-group controlled 6-wk feeding study where all meals are prepared and provided to obese participants. All participants will be fed a 25% energy-restricted diet. Two diets will be very low in carbohydrate (i.e., ketogenic diets) designed to induce nutritional ketosis and fat loss. Another diet will be low in fat and saturated fat but contain the same total calories. Participants will be randomly assigned to a Ketone Supplement group who are provided an exogenous pre-formed source of beta-hydroxybutyrate (BOHB) or a Control group that only receives the standard ketogenic diet. Randomization will be stratified based on insulin resistance, sex, and body composition to ensure balanced group assignment. Because of timing of recruitment (i.e., after most of the ketogenic groups have already completed the study), the low-fat group will not be randomized. Outcome measurements will be made at various intervals over the 6-wk intervention.
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn about the acceptability and feasibility of nutrition education videos among food-insecure parents and caregivers of young children (under 8 years old). Participants will: - Watch short nutrition education videos weekly for 8 weeks. - Complete demographic and nutrition behavior questionnaires at week 1 and week 8. - Participate in three motivational interview phone calls with a nutrition educator lasting 20 minutes over the course of 8 weeks.
Aging significantly impacts overall health and is a risk factor for developing diabetes. An estimated 50% of U.S. adults aged ≥65 years were reported to have prediabetes (defined as having a fasting glucose concentration of 100-125 mg/dl) in 2005-2008. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has stated that in the United States, 88 million people (one in every 3 Americans) are currently classified as prediabetic, emphasizing the importance of preventative measures and early intervention to manage and reduce the risk of progression to diabetes. Additionally, an estimated 430 million individuals worldwide are expected to have prediabetes by 2030. Dietary supplementation of polyamines, spermidine in particular, have been touted to have beneficial health effects such as increasing life span and mitigating impacts of aging. Spermidine and spermine are polyamines that are being increasingly investigated for their ability to slow the aging process by inducing autophagy. Nevertheless, literature on these topics is scarce and results from trials have been inconclusive; therefore further research is needed. The novel nutraceutical KH-1, comprised of spermidine, spermidine derivatives and probiotics, is examined in this trial of healthy volunteers aged 18 years or over. This study evaluates KH-1 for its safety and its effect on glucose homeostasis. This study measures the effects of KH-1 on biomarkers for inflammation, cardiovascular disease, insulin sensitivity, and those important for autophagy. A qualitative assessment of the effect of KH-1 on well-being is also examined.
